This chocolate making business course focuses on the practical set up of your chocolate making business from home. Although we will not be making any chocolate, you will be able to taste and explore all the raw chocolate we use and our final chocolate products. You will also have the opportunity to see all our equipment and ingredients to help you to decide what to purchase yourself.

If you are completely new to chocolate making, we have other courses that focus just on ‘hands-on’ chocolate making.

Our chocolate making business courses are exclusively run by Magdalena Marsden who established her business in 2011 following a life long passion with chocolate. Magdalena’s work background and experience (Managing Director and Operation’s Director) helped her to set up, now very succesful chocolate making business.

Our workshops are deliberately run in small groups to allow you to get the most of your day, ask as many questions as you like.

What’s included:

  • whole day course (10-4 pm)
  • All refreshments (please bring your own lunch)
  • Course Resource Pack (includes recipes, practical business information, on-line resources, accounts spreadsheets and book, business plan template, start up budget spread sheet and other helpful resources already done for you)
  • Business Coaching – one joint follow up session (60 min) via Skype and e-mail follow up after the session. This session is best booked within 3-6 months (or when you feel you need an extra help with your new adventure). Further follow up session are available at extra cost.
