Bigger and better line-up The Winelands Chocolate FestivalThe second Winelands Chocolate Festival will take place at Blaauwklippen Wine Estate, Stellenbosch on 20 and 21 August, 2016. This year's festival will be held in the spacious Blaauwklippen grounds and building, and there is a bigger and better line-up with more features, more chocolate and more wine. The Winelands Chocolate Festival will feature:
The spacious festival layout has been designed to take advantage of Blaauwklippen’s expansive lawns, the eight inter-leading rooms of the main house, the pretty courtyard leading off the tasting room, the restaurant and the stately Manor House. Focussing entirely on giving visitors a superb and wholly indulgent experience, the Winelands Chocolate Festival is designed to appeal to all ages. The Chocolate Theatre, taking place in the Manor House, will present chocolate demos, educational talks and tutored tastings with brandy, whiskey, or wine. There will also be workshops and chocolate playtime for children, timed in such a way that while adults are watching the chocolate demo, their children can have fun playing games safely in the room next door. An array of gourmet food will be on sale at the various stands, as well as a wide selection of premium wines, freshly brewed coffees, hot chocolate, craft beers and quality MCCs. There will also be ample seating and live music to entertain the crowd throughout the day. Visitors can not only taste and enjoy good quality chocolate, but also learn more about its history and production. With the many new artisanal chocolatiers on board this year, the festival promises a complete chocolate experience. Keep an eye out for updates on more features, special guests and activities.
