Running across weekends from 6–21 December, the festive experience transforms the Bellbrae destination into a hands-on holiday workshop where visitors can create their very own oversized chocolate bauble. Guests are guided through crafting, filling and decorating their edible ornament, choosing from an irresistible lineup of toppings, mix-ins and festive flourishes. Think sprinkles, jellies, crunchy bites and colourful Christmas sparkle.
Perfect as a heartfelt handmade gift or a personal indulgence to nibble on later, the giant baubles are made with the Chocolaterie’s signature premium chocolate, ensuring every creation is as delicious as it is eye-catching. With the venue’s famously magical atmosphere—lush grounds, chocolate sculptures, temptations at every turn—the experience captures the warm, wonder-filled spirit of the season.
Best of all, there’s no need to book. Visitors can simply wander in, join the fun and get creative at their own pace. It’s an ideal festive outing for families, date-day explorers, friendship groups or anyone keen to embrace a little Christmas whimsy.
After crafting the perfect chocolate showstopper, guests can stick around to enjoy the rest of what the Chocolaterie does best: decadent treats, artisan gelato, cups of rich hot chocolate and a browse through the chocolate showroom for even more sweet gift ideas.
If the holidays call for joy, creativity and a whole lot of chocolate, this is the place to be.
It’s just one of the exciting school holiday and Christmas events that the site is offering. Find out more about their events here.
