Chocolate Masterclasses
We offer a journey through the art of chocolate-making. From the origins of cacao to a variety of chocolate skills and techniques and, of course, plenty of tasting along the way.
Each masterclass is for up to six guests, so you can ask questions, get to grips with everything and really immerse yourself in a genuinely bespoke experience.
Perfect as a gift for friends & family, a team away day or as an experience for yourself, our masterclasses will make you feel like you’ve got the golden ticket.
You’ll be welcomed with a glass of our own label English sparkling wine before discovering the origins and flavour profiles of cacao.
You will choose a chocolate to make your truffle with and opt for another to enjoy as a hot chocolate. Then comes the all-important truffle-making. Don’t worry, our Head Chocolatier, Paul, will be on hand to guide you through the whole process.

A welcome glass of Adam Handling English sparkling wine or soft drink
Introduction to cacao origin and chocolate production
Guided chocolate tasting experience
