Experiences
Update on POD Chocolate Experiences:
Our daughter Isabella arrived on Sunday January 28th 2024, I have been taking some time to settle as a family of three. I have decided to take on a limited amount of chocolate experiences to get me back into my business from now onwards. I have already had a number of bookings since September, and some for 2025 too- which is GREAT!
For now, I won’t be doing any regular farmer’s markets or selling chocolate online. Please email me if you would like any chocolates, as now and again I might be able to make some for individual orders. Thank you for your ongoing support for my Chocolate Micro business.
I have a variety of experiences for all occasions to choose from, including experiences for children, teens, and adults. These private parties can be hosted at your house or perhaps a local Village Hall – providing there is a table, fridge & freezer, I can provide the rest!
You may be thinking of new ideas for Birthday Parties, Hen-do’s, and one to ones, etc. and I can also offer to host Corporate events.
I can come to your school to teach you all about the harvest of cocoa, how we make it into chocolate, and make your own bars of chocolate.
Choose an experience you would like to do and then contact me with your details via email .
If anyone has an allergy, i.e. nuts, dairy, or are vegan, dark chocolate is always available as an alternative, so please make sure you let me know. I am based in West Oxfordshire.
