Romance is in the air again! As valentines day draws near,if you are looking for a really special present to wow your lover you have come to the right place... both luxurious and sensual, delicate and romantic, chocolates have a reputation as an aphrodisiac which goes back over 3,000 years. Modern science adds substance to this claim as three of the principal chemicals found in chocolate namely: caffeine, theobromine and phenyethylamine ,are know to stimulate and elevate the mood . Choosing your gift from our range of hand-crafted chocolates shows you have really thought about the recipient – we can personalise your gift for you, but do order in good time to guarantee delivery.

Looking for Something Different to Do? Why not try our Chocolate Parties for Adults!
Our children’s chocolate parties have proved so successful that we have decided to put all those adults longing to take part out of their misery and launch our chocolate-making parties for adults!
Based on the same idea as the children’s parties, you will make your own box of chocolates, with a range of fillings including alcoholic truffles if you wish, paint your own masterpiece in chocolate, and enjoy a luxurious chocolate fondue or chocolate tasting if you prefer. You can also order a finger buffet and a celebration cake if you wish. You could book one for your club, as a hen party, a birthday party, or just get a group of friends together....
Our History of Chocolate Demonstrations are proving very popular and are now booking well into 2009. We have entertained a variety of clubs and societies in this way, from WI's to the Cambridge Food and Wine Society, who also ordered a savoury chocolate sausage plait and a chocolate cake for their post-demonstration buffet. Contact us now if you are interested to make sure you get the date you require….We are also now taking bookings for chocolate dinner parties - we will come to your home and cook up an amazing evening of chocolate for you, what more could you ask? For more information see the chocolate parties section of our website.
