Such a fun activity to do with a couple of girlfriends. Our tutor was excellent, very clear with her demonstration & instructions. Even managed to turn out some deliciously tasting & professional looking chocolates (almost🤣). Highly recommend!

I had this experience booked in as a belated Birthday present and it did not disappoint! We arrived to a very warm welcome from Alex and Jen, and got settled down on our benches with the ingredients all laid out. Bottled water was a nice touch too. We had a really informative intro into how the cocoa bean is used and then how artisan chocolates are made. After a demonstration of how to make ganache chocolates, we then got to choose our own selection of fillings and flavours for our own chocolates, which was really nice as we all had different ideas. We were then challenged with decorating a chocolate lolly, with the best in the room given a chocolate prize. We then learnt how to nicely box up our chocolates ready to take home with us. Nothing was too much for our hosts and the vibe was great! 10/10 would recommend!

We came here for my birthday and absolutely loved it! It was such a fantastic experience, so much fun. Sally and Jen running it were fab! So knowledgeable and they created such a relaxed environment. I will be recommending the workshop to everyone!

I took my GCSE Food Prep and Nutrition students here for a chocolate workshop. It was absolutely fantastic! The staff were so welcoming and gave the girls excellent information on tempering chocolate and tips on piping and decorating chocolate. I will definitely be back with more students next year!

We went to Chocolate Craft back in February for part of my Hen Party and they were beyond brilliant! Not only did we get to make a variety of chocolates but we also got to taste some and take all our crafts home with us at the end! Our hosts were absolutely amazing and were equally helpful as to having a good laugh with us! Would definitely recommend!
