Looking for a fun and creative activity for kids in South Shields? The Family Chocolate Making Experience at The Canny Chocolate Company is a hands-on, 90-minute chocolate workshop for children and adults, perfect for families, visitors, and chocolate lovers of all ages.
Whether you're local or visiting the North East of England for a seaside break, this is a fantastic way to spend time together—ideal for weekends, school holidays, or a special treat.
During the session, you’ll make and decorate your own artisan chocolate bar, lollipops, and chocolate buttons, using our signature chocolate and a huge selection of colourful toppings and sprinkles. It’s a fully interactive experience—grown-ups join in too! There are no spectators, so everyone gets involved side by side. You’ll also enjoy plenty of chocolate tasting, and everything you make is beautifully packaged to take home (or gift, if you’re feeling generous!).
This relaxed, friendly chocolate-making class is designed for families with children tall enough to reach standard kitchen counters. Whether it’s your first visit or a returning favourite, it’s all about getting creative, having fun, and making sweet memories together.
Spaces are limited and often book up quickly—so if you're planning a visit to South Shields or the coast, be sure to secure your spot early.
Here’s what makes this experience truly special:
Individual chocolate-making experience – Unlike many other workshops, you’ll work solo on your own creations, not in pairs or groups.
Made entirely from scratch – Using high-quality ingredients from start to finish.
Immersive and behind-the-scenes – Explore the real art of chocolate making in a working chocolate studio.
Fully customisable – Choose your own flavours and inclusions to suit your taste.
Beautifully packaged to gift or enjoy at home – Complete with ribbons and care.
Expert guidance in a relaxed atmosphere – Suitable for families of all ages.
