A chocolate cornucopia
An interesting, informative and fun lecture, however aprons would have been appreciated as it involves melted chocolate. The whole experience lasts about an hour but the chocolate bars are not prepared until the very end then take roughly 30 minutes to set. Bear this in mind if you are on a tight schedule.

Chocolate Lovers Dream!!!
We had a fantastic afternoon. Meia, our chocolate guru and teacher, was so knowledgeable about chocolate. She made the whole experience feel easy. I was worried I wouldn’t keep up with everyone; however, with her as our teacher, it felt fun and simple. I would definitely recommend this as a worthwhile family experience. Don’t delay, book today!
