Winter’s most indulgent festival returns to The Chocolateries from 1 August.
Prepare to whisk, dunk and slurp your way through the sweetest month of winter with an irresistible line up of limited edition hot chocolates, immersive experiences, and chocolate filled fun for all ages.


Featuring Dot Cake, Nutty Cronut, and Spiced Pumpkin Pie just to name a few.
Each week, discover a brand-new menu of limited edition hot chocolates, with every creation featuring sustainably sourced couverture chocolate, a handcrafted marshmallow, artisan ingredients, and a playful interactive element that transforms a classic hot chocolate into something truly unforgettable.
The chocolate fun doesn’t stop there!
Every weekday during the festival, create three of your very own chocolate spheres. Fill and decorate each one with your favourite delicious ingredients before they’re sealed and ready to take home.
Simply drop a chocolate sphere into a mug of hot milk, whisk, and watch the chocolate magic unfold.
