What is it?
Taking place as part of the grand finale of Chocolate Week (13th – 19th October), The Chocolate Show will host incredible chocolate companies, demonstrations, tastings, truffle rolling, and even couture outfits made entirely of chocolate. The Chocolate Show will take place at Olympia West in London from 17th to 19th October 2014.
In The Chocolate Theatre, the stars of the show will include Michelin-starred Atul Kochhar, Great British Bake Off champions Edd Kimber and John Whaite, and chocolatiers Paul A Young and Will Torrent. These stars will showcase the diversity of chocolate in a series of live demonstrations.
The show will also be putting the spotlight on pastry chefs, with former Fat Duck pastry chef Hideko Kawa and pastry chefs from the 5-star The Berkeley Hotel and Café Royal Hotel taking to the stage. One of the most exciting patisserie talents of his generation, France’s 23-year old Guillaume Sanchez will also be joining the show for his first ever appearance in the UK.
