What People Are Saying About Our Chocolate Parties
“Everyone was impressed with how professional and knowledgeable Leanne was. She was patient and answered everyone’s questions. It was such a fun and personal experience. I especially love her “bean to bar” process. She runs through every step of turning cacao beans into smooth, delicious chocolate. It's so delicious and so pure that I keep wanting more.”— Juliette W.
“Attending C-Sweet’s healthy chocolate-making party was an absolute blast! It was fun and educational as we learned about the benefits of using high-quality, natural ingredients. The hands-on experience of creating our own chocolate bars, from selecting flavours to molding and decorating, was incredibly rewarding. Plus, knowing that everything we created was healthy made the indulgence even sweeter. It was a fantastic way to bond with friends, share laughs, and enjoy delicious, guilt-free chocolate. Highly recommend for a unique and enjoyable experience” — Mark M.
“I have hosted two chocolate-tasting parties with Leanne, and each time it gets better. I was blown away at the depth of knowledge Leanne was able to share and was so excited to see the process unfold, from roasting the cacao beans to the winnowing of the beans all the way to pouring the finished chocolate into the moulds. The class was fun, fascinating, and of course, delicious. The bars we made were beautiful, and I loved that we could bring our own “additions” (though Leanne provided a plethora of tasty options as well). This was a great way to bring people together for an evening of absolute joyful education.” — Connie M.

What People Are Saying About Our Chocolate Parties
“We booked C-Sweet Chocolate for two parties and were beyond impressed with every aspect of the evening! When Leanne and John arrived, they got everything set up in a very timely and efficient manner. Knowing their dedication to the craft and how they source all the items locally and ethically made it that much more of a special evening. When the chocolate-making started, it was so much fun mixing and coming up with amazing combinations that we got to take home. At the end of the evening, we really understood the importance of supporting local chocolatiers and how important it is to support the craft for your overall health, as it really is medicine. I know with both events, our guests left with a greater understanding of the process from start to finish. I highly recommend booking a party with C -Sweet Chocolate!” — Trena G.
“My husband and best friend booked a C-Sweet Chocolate-making party for my birthday… Leanne and John showed up with an amazing setup of chocolate-making tools, chocolate, and flavour additions. They took us on a super interesting journey from Bean to Bar... They were very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable about chocolate's history and origins and the chocolate crafting process. We all had the opportunity to make our own chocolate bars, adding what we liked. The chocolate was absolutely fabulous! Delicious and creamy, with many different additions to choose from, from dried fruits and nuts to spices and sprinkles. There was so much laughter and so many smiles throughout the night! Everyone who attended had a lot of fun! One of our friends exclaimed, ‘I am so excited; I feel like a kid again in creative arts class having so much fun!’ I highly recommend hiring C-Sweet Chocolate to host a chocolate-making party at your home — a really fun, informative, and delicious experience!” — Jeni R.

Your Chocolate Questions Unwrapped
Here are some of the most common questions we get about our Chocolate Making Parties.
Feel free to reach out if your question isn’t addressed here.
-
We mainly serve the greater Victoria area for free, but are willing to travel a short distance for a nominal fee.
-
After we book a date via email or phone, we’ll arrive with our team, all the necessary equipment and ingredients, and get set up to fully engage you and your guests with the delights of chocolate making.
Our parties are best when set up in a kitchen, but we can spread out in different areas, too.
The tempering machine and the molds need to be set up on a table to make bars.
-
Absolutely! Our parties are very complete, and we include everything needed.
-
Ideally, setting up the tempering machine on a kitchen island would work great for molding bars.
We need access to plugs for the machines.
-
Every person will make an inclusion bar to bring home.
All guests will have the opportunity to sample other chocolates (like our NutriBites or jam-filled chocolates) that we make, which we bring to all parties.
These are included in the price.
-
Micro-grinding tea has more health benefits than steeping tea because you are consuming the entire leaf of the plant.
Compounds from the whole plant are being consumed, and your body will benefit from the way these compounds interact with your body.
This is called the “entourage effect.”
-
Additional bars can be made for $8 per bar.
-
Yes, absolutely!
