20th of December 2022Wow! It looks like an ornament. So realistic. A gift for my friend who collects Hippos. I think she will be blown away. Sorry but I can’t comment on the taste.

9th of January 2022I'm not a huge fan of Internet shopping--I'll just put that out there right now. Especially when I'm being bombarded by Facebook ads all the time. But Christmas was coming and I needed a gift for my husband (who is VERY hard to shop for, as he always says "I don't want anything for Christmas", but always manages to delight in at least one gift under our tree each year). This year, I was running out of ideas when lo and behold ! an ad for the Chocolate Workshop showed up one day. So many boxes ticked with this impulse buy: made in GB (always like to support local businesses); vegan (husband and I are both life-long vegans); quick service (got it in time for Christmas!); the personlised greeting option; and of course, the selection! My husband has been spending an extra amount of effort these last 2 years repairing items around the house so as to save us some money, and so buying him a set of new "tools" seemed only proper. He was SOOOOOO delighted and totally surprised when he opened his gift on Christmas Day. The only problem now is: he doesn't want to eat them--they look so realistic! Well done to the Amazing Chocolate Workshop!! I will definitely order again and again!

27th of December 2018The chocolate is lovely and the likeness to the items amazing. The only tiny thing is the packaging had been so tightly done the bike chain snapped. Similar on the other box I ordered too. It’s a pity as otherwise a great present

26th of July 2022I ordered this as a decoration for a birthday cake for my son who is a tree surgeon. It was fab!! Everyone who saw it thought it was amazing. Delivery was as promised. Courier used was fantastic. Packaging was v substantial. I made a mistake with the delivery date, but customer service was so efficient and it was sorted without batting an eyelid. The quality is amazing. The products are beautifully detailed and getting them through the post on time, in 35•c degree heat, was no mean feat. My son was so chuffed! Nothing but praise for this company and will definitely use again for special occasions and more. Thankyou !!

Ingredients
OK so it looks great, but does it taste good?
You’d be forgiven for wondering if our chocolate tastes nice. It looks weird, like tools and things. And you may never have thought of eating a horseshoe before. Could it be made of rubbish chocolate like that cheap, grainy ‘advent calendar’ stuff?
The short answer is that all of our items are made from fine-grade chocolate made from some of the world’s best cocoa beans. But we know you’ll be wanting a little more detail, so….
Here’s a brief guide to the quality of the chocolate and the special cocoa beans that make it so delightful… so you can tuck into that horseshoe knowing it’s not going to taste like one.
QUALITY & INGREDIENTS:
We’re really obsessive about the quality of our chocolate and never compromise on taste.
It’s very time-consuming to make and the finished product is so visually fantastic it would be a tragedy to ruin it all with a cheap chocolate, so we insist on truly top-notch ingredients to make our amazing creations.
What’s more, all of our chocolate is suitable for vegans. We don’t use any animal products in our amazing recipe. Even our creamy, dreamy smooth white choc!
The Famous Trinitario & Forestero Cocoa Beans.
This is what really sets us apart. Our chocolate is made with rather special cocoa bean varieties called the ‘Trinitario’ and ‘Forastero’. The Trinitario is an extremely sought after variety used in less than 10% of worldwide chocolate production due to the expertise needed to grow them.
They are world-renowned for their fine flavour and only used by premium producers. Google ‘Trinitario Cocoa Beans’ and you’ll see it really is the real deal.
Fine-grade ingredients = fine flavour.
Our cocoa beans are carefully sourced and chosen for their luxurious, indulgent flavour, making our chocolate pieces truly special both to look at and to taste.
Our plain chocolate is naturally velvety, smooth and creamy and contains less sugar than a lot of every day chocolate you might find in the supermarket.
High cocoa content. No compromise.
We insist on at least 60% cocoa in our creamy plain chocolate, giving it the perfect balance of sweetness and rich indulgence; it’s mellow and moreish without any lingering bitterness.
Our white choc contains a minimum of 30% cocoa. The result is all in the flavour, fine chocolate that’s sweet without
being sickly.
Minimum environmental
impact & postman-proof
packaging.
Your gifts come perfectly packed with award-winning recyclable gift boxes with a recyclable food-grade paper filling and biodegradable film window.
All securely wrapped in biodegradable padding and a fully recyclable outer box sealed with paper tape.
Plant-based.
Minimalized food waste.
We’re really obsessive about the quality of our chocolate.
Our chocolate has a naturally long shelf life of 6 months to reduce food waste. All of our products are vegan and use zero animal products, making them better for the planet, the animals, and the people, with no compromise on taste.

My chocolate has broken, can I fix it?
