2 for 1 Chocolate Connoisseur Workshop
This amazing masterclass starts with a brief talk from the chocolatier and their assistant about the health benefits of chocolate (as if you didn't already know).
Then you learn how chocolate is made and the fascinating process from bean to bar.
The chocolatier will then give you a demonstration on how to hand-make your own chocolates. Bowls of melted milk and dark chocolate are used to make your chocolates look beautiful and absolutely mouth-watering. Delectable chocolate fudge is used for the centres of your handmade chocolates. And then, after all that hard work, you get to eat everything you've made (or, if you're feeling generous, save some for your family and friends).
Course is at Cocoa Box in Central London.

mango chocolateThorntons will donate 91p from every Mango Choc Block you buy - making this a chocolate bar you can buy to help others!
Thorntons has teamed up with Save the Children to create a mouth-watering, limited edition Mango Chocolate Block which blends creamy milk chocolate with chunks of juicy mango to make a deliciously exotic combination.
Thorntons have sourced the cocoa beans from Haiti so it not only tastes amazing, it's also helping a great cause with 91p from every bar going directly to Save the Children's educational programmes in Haiti.
So no need to feel guilty about indulging in a little chocolate this January; start feeling great about it! Mango Chocolate Block - 91p from each bar sold donated to charity
