About This Experience
Step into Christmas at our Chocolate Factory in South Shields for a magical and indulgent festive chocolate-making experience. This hands-on, two-hour Christmas workshop takes you behind the scenes of artisan chocolate making, with expert guidance, luxury ingredients, and a warm, festive atmosphere.
Your experience begins with a delicious cup of traditional Belgian hot chocolate—made from an authentic Bruges recipe—before diving into a joyful, hands-on chocolate workshop. You'll craft your own festive chocolate truffles, a handmade chocolate bar, and elegant French-style mendiants, using a selection of seasonal decorations and flavours to personalise each one.
This festive chocolate-making class is perfect for couples, friends, or families looking for a unique Christmas activity in the North East. Once your creations are complete, we’ll wrap them up beautifully—ready to gift, share, or enjoy yourself as luxurious homemade stocking fillers.
Open to all skill levels, this Christmas chocolate workshop is a fantastic way to celebrate the season, learn new techniques, and create truly personal artisan chocolate gifts. You'll also learn how to taste and temper chocolate, and take home full recipes and notes. Seasonal refreshments are included.
Spaces are limited and this seasonal workshop books up quickly—early booking is highly recommended.
