Unwrapping the business: chocolate, challenges & connections

Join Tastebuds for a deliciously different behind-the-scenes networking event. We step behind-the-scenes for an exclusive look at how great products are made and great businesses are built with the wonderful, Tosier Chocolatiers. Start with a warm welcome and a comforting hot chocolate before taking a guided tour of the facilities. Hear from Deanna as she shares the story behind the business, offering an honest insight into the production process, the challenges encountered along the way, and the lessons learned from growing a successful food and drink brand. Of course, no visit would be complete without some tasting opportunities, giving you the chance to sample products while learning more about what goes on behind the scenes. We'll round off the visit with informal networking and the opportunity to browse and purchase products, making this a fantastic chance to connect with fellow producers, share experiences, and gather fresh inspiration for your own business. What is included? • Welcome hot chocolate • Guided behind-the-scenes tour • Insights from the owner on business growth, process and challenges • Product tastings • Networking with fellow food and drink businesses • Opportunity to purchase products - Tosier have kindly offered £5 off a £20 spend just for you!
