What did your experience entail?
Booking the experience was simple and I received an email promptly with all the details and had a reminder the day before. It was for a 2-hour session in chocolate making. It was a lovely experience, with the chef being engaging and warm from the moment I arrived and explained everything with energy and clarity that made the experience fun and inclusive.
I got to share my experience with others, and we all enjoyed being creative with the chocolate and being able to take it home was a bonus, as we were provided with bags or boxes to keep them safe until I got them home, or even before hand (as they did taste great), overall excellent value for money. Only room for improvement would be the setting, was ok being in a sort of conference area but in a more kitchen type environment would have felt nicer overall.
I got the train to the experience, and it was extremely easy to find with the details in the email booking I received confirming all required details. It was less than a couple minutes’ walk out of Manchester Piccadilly station and if you wanted to stay over there was plenty of hotels within a short walk from where the experience took place, including the experience being in a lovely hotel.
What did you enjoy the most?
It was great fun to be able to be hands on and get messy with tasty chocolate, and then take home what I had created.
1. Travel light and not in white, as it can get messy, and you get a fair amount of chocolate you can bring home.
