Calling all chocolate lovers, get ready to indulge in pure chocolate heaven to celebrate Chocolate Week, as Duke of York Square will once again be hosting its delectable Chocolate Market on Saturday 17th October. The blissful addition to the regular Saturday Fine Food Market will be an opportunity to taste some of the finest, and most luxurious artisanal chocolate, with each chocolatier carefully chosen by Chelsea institution Partridges. Perfect for Christmas parties or giving as a gift to treat your loved ones, the irresistible aromas of truffles, caramels, pralines and honeycomb will be enough to satisfy anyone with a sweet tooth.
The Chocolate Market will feature a range of established and artisanal chocolatiers offering an array of delicious treats available to sample and purchase. Among them will be Lavolio whose award-winning artisan confectionary collection offers a range of luxury and natural sweet treats in five distinctly delicious mixes using a traditional confectionery art still alive in Italy today.
