Chocolate Workshop and Live Caricatures: Two Stations, One Room

A corporate chocolate workshop is a hands-on activity where teams melt chocolate with an instructor, create their own designs with fruit and decorations, then taste everything together and vote for the best chocolatier. Add a caricature station to the same room and anyone waiting for their turn, or simply wanting a short break, gets a second focal point.

How does a chocolate workshop work?

In the setup shown in the video, tables are laid with white cloths; each one has an induction hob, a steel pot, chocolate moulds, gloves, fresh fruit and small bowls of nuts, coloured sprinkles and gold sugar pearls. This is how we structure the flow:

1. Short talk: the instructor shares the story of chocolate and the tricks of melting it well.
2. Teams and roles: each table decides who melts, who fills the moulds and who decorates.
3. Hands-on: chocolate is melted and poured into moulds, fruit and dried orange slices are dipped.
4. Decoration: nuts, sprinkles and sugar pearls let every team put its own signature on the result.
5. Tasting and voting: creations travel between tables and participants choose the best chocolatier.

Why is a live caricature artist a good companion?

Not everyone at a chocolate table can work at once; people wait their turn to melt, and the chocolate needs time to set. Dropping by the caricature artist during those gaps keeps the room's energy up. In the video the artist works with markers on blue-framed paper; each drawing takes a few minutes and is handed to the guest as a gift. Participants leave with both the chocolate they made and a caricature of themselves.

How many people, and how long does it take?

The Chocolate Workshop can be designed for groups of 10 to 500 people, with timing set by your programme. For the Caricature & Painting Workshop we plan the number of artists around headcount and event length, adding more artists for larger groups to keep queues short. If you are unsure which workshop fits which goal, see our guide to choosing a workshop.

• Main cost factors: headcount and number of tables, duration, city and venue, the range of ingredients, number of artists, and any packaging or brand personalisation.
• Venue note: power outlets and table layout should be checked in advance; hobs are set up in a safe arrangement.
• Dietary note: collecting allergy and preference information beforehand lets us adapt the ingredient list.
