Chocolate school gives sweet treat to tourism industry
The founder of a popular Mid Wales chocolate school is inviting local tourism and hospitality businesses to visit on March 22 to make and sample chocolate in its first familiarisation event since moving to new premises in Llanidloes last year.
Owner of Coco Pzazz and Coco Live, Lori Whinn, said: “We are looking forward to meeting businesses and introducing them to our Coco Pzazz chocolate and events at Coco Live.
“We encourage them to please come along to find out more about us, taste our range and also make some chocolate to take home with them.
“It’s just the sort of workshop experience that their guests and visitors to Mid Wales may enjoy and we would love tourism and hospitality businesses to experience it for themselves to help us share the word.
The chocolate makers hold hands on, fun events ranging from a ‘Chocolate Experience’, where chocolate bars and shards are made and decorated, through to making filled chocolates and truffles with a selection of caramel and ganache fillings.
“Our informal approach, encouraging bowls to be scraped and spoons to be licked, is a hit with everyone,” said Lori. After all, chocolate tends to bring out the inner child in all of us.”
Tourism and hospitality businesses wishing to attend the ‘Eat & Greet’ on March 22, between 11am - 1 pm or 2pm - 4pm, are asked to email info@coco-live.co.uk to book their spaces. Advance booking is recommended as spaces will be limited and a maximum of two people per business will be allowed.
