The Chocolate Workshop
The Chocolate Warehouse is celebrating 10 years of chocolate workshops and school tours.
Irelands original and best chocolate workshops were started by Natasha Caffrey Grand Daughter of the late Thomas Caffrey known as The Irish Willy Wonka.
Thomas Caffreys legendary Snowballs, Tea Cakes Macaroon bars, Big Time bars and lots more are all available at The Chocolate Warehouse shop. Come and enjoy the magic and mystique and the wonder of chocolate making.
The Chocolate Warehouse is a unique venue where visitors can discover the history and mystique of chocolate with hands on working experience provided.
Chocolate covers so many topics within the national curriculum from science to history, geography as well as stimulating the senses.
Two Fabulous Hours!
The two hour event which covers a 25 minute film explains in detail the story of chocolate and how the cocoa beans are grown and harvested. The film shows the journey of the cocoa beans to the factory and the process the beans go through to get the chocolate we know today.
The visitors are given a chocolate demonstration on how chocolates and Easter eggs are made. They are also shown the different machinery needed to make chocolate and the method of how to use a piping bag filled with chocolate.
The real fun part is the "hands on"session. The visitors put on aprons and start the business of coating chocolates, adding toppings and hand piping with white chocolate.
All participants get to decorate and package the chocolate to take home.
At the end of each event we have a short table quiz. This is great fun! The visitors realize they have learned a lot about the history of chocolate and how it is manufactured.
Each visitor receives The Chocolate Warehouse Certificate which gives each visitor a sense of achievement and the enthusiasm for future learning.
We have created specific educational workshops and have adapted each workshop for the appropriate age of the group. Suitable for transition year, 5th, 6th, LCVP and college students.
You can book in as an individual, family or group.
