Step into our welcoming chocolate factory in Ireland's scenic Hidden Heartlands for an immersive, hands-on chocolate making adventure. Guided by expert chocolatiers, you'll create two bespoke 100g chocolate bars, choosing from milk, dark, or white chocolate bases and a dazzling selection of 30 premium toppings—think nuts, dried fruit, caramel, even rose petals! Experience the magic of working with chocolatier tools as you pour, mold, and customize your sweet masterpieces. Once set, wrap your bars in eco-friendly packaging—ready to take home or gift to someone special. This friendly small-group workshop finishes with a decadent Ultimate Hot Chocolate (choose from eight flavours!) and a tasting of two luxurious chocolates from our artisan selection. The perfect memory for chocolate lovers, friends, and couples seeking a fun, authentic Irish treat in a relaxed setting.
