Ambrosius Flume was a wizard. He and his wife ran Honeydukes Sweetshop in Hogsmeade, which is a very popular shop among Hogwarts students during the school's weekend trips to Hogsmeade.
Biography
Early life
Ambrosius Flume attended Hogwarts School in his youth and was taught Potions by Horace Slughorn. Ambrosius became a member of the Slug Club. [1]
Employment
As he was a member of the Slug Club, Horace Slughorn introduced Ambrosius to Ciceron Harkiss and thus had him employed. As repayment for Horace's kindness, Flume sent a hamper of Slughorn's favourite sweets (Crystalized Pineapple) to him annually on his birthday. [1]
Marriage and Honeydukes
At some point in his life, Ambrosius married to Mrs. Flume. [1] By 1993, the couple lived in a flat above Honeydukes Sweetshop and ran together said shop. In 1993, during one of the weekend trips to Hogsmeade, Mrs. Flume asked Ambrosius to get some Jelly Slugs, as the shop was filled with Hogwarts students. [2]
Battle of Hogwarts
It is most likely that as a former Hogwarts student Ambrosius participated in the Battle of Hogwarts alongside his wife, and fellow Hogsmeade residents Aberforth Dumbledore, Madam Rosmerta and Madam Puddifoot.
Etymology
Ambrosius comes from the Greek word "ambrosia" meaning food or drink of the gods. It is also referred as nectar, which is sweet (like candy) and bestows immortality. A flume is an artificial channel for the flow of water
Behind the scenes
- Flume may have been the one who told Tom Riddle Horace Slughorn was quite fond of Crystalized Pineapple. Tom used this sweet as a casual bribe the night he asked Slughorn on the method and effects of creating Horcruxes.
