This wine has the fragrances of red fruit, roots and spices. It is enveloping, yet fresh in the mouth, with notes of cherry and plum.

FAQs About Our Chocolate Workshops
Is this workshop suitable for children?
1
Our workshops are primarily designed for adults and are an excellent fit for groups, celebrations, and corporate team-building events. While we welcome enthusiastic older children and teenagers (16 years old and above) who have a genuine interest in detailed chocolate-making, please note that our sessions are generally not recommended for younger children, as they involve working with tempered chocolate, which requires careful handling. The activities also demand a level of patience for techniques like tempering, molding, and decorating.
How many participants are there per session?

To ensure every participant receives ample hands-on guidance and attention from our expert chocolatiers, our workshops accommodate a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 30 participants per session.
