If you’re looking for a novel gift idea for your partner or friend this festive season, why not take a look at the delights on offer from the Amazing Chocolate Workshop?
This week, I got a taste of its wonders in an email from owners, Mo and Ed. They were promoting their latest line-up of scale model classic cars handcrafted from the finest chocolate.
A quick browse through their ‘car collection’ and you come across a Mini Cooper, Aston Martin DB4, retro Golf GTI, VW Beetle and Fiat 126, an early Citroen DS and more. Scrolling down the mouthwatering choices I even saw a chocolate-coated Trabant!
The award-winning business also sell themed chocolate gift boxes featuring everything from DIY tool kits to a mechanics kit. There’s also a nice range of home & garden and foodie gift sets.
Going online you can also make up your own personalised gift box from over 160 chocolate items.
You can even order one-off items such as a full-sized carburettor made from 100% sustainable chocolate using carefully sourced cocoa beans.
According to the maker’s website all the chocolate used is vegan friendly and their gifts come in snazzy recyclable packaging.
So if buying a classic car for your loved one this Christmas might be stretching it, you can always treat them to a bite-sized chocolate version. I can guarantee it will be tasty!
