Introduction
The 'Chocolate Experience' is run By Appointment Only. As we taste and work with Milk and White chocolate the 'Chocolate Experience' is not suitable for people who are dairy milk intolerant or vegans.

Cocoadance is a fully working workshop which throughout the week produces high quality handmade chocolates to retail establishments throughout the country.
The ‘Chocolate Experience’ provides a unique opportunity for a group of 8 people to visit us, look around the workshop, learn about the history of chocolate, taste various samples and finally produce their own box of chocolates to take home.
Drinks and refreshments are supplied with the price.
There is a minimum age limit of 11 years.
