Chocolate Making Corporate Team Building Challenge with My Chocolate, London

Believe it or not chocolate is the latest craze in team building activities “its creative and everyone wants to work together” The Times.

The Team Building Chocolate Making Challenge

The Team Building Corporate Chocolate Making Challenge can be held at a venue of your choice or at the central London premises of My Chocolate. Introduction and Tasting - Learning the Skills

This 3 hour corporate chocolate making workshop begins with an informative talk on the history of chocolate, its marketing and production. Corporate guests on this team building challenge will sample varieties of in-house chocolate and be given a demonstration by a master chocolatier on how to cut, dip and decorate a variety of chocolate including fudge, gianduja and dark chocolate truffles. Participants will be required to work hard to learn the necessary chocolate making skills before going any further.

The Chocolate Making Challenge in a Golden Envelope

To kick off this team building challenge, guests will be divided into groups and given a golden envelope containing their chocolate mission statement and target market segment. Each team will need to create a box of chocolates for a bespoke section of the consumer market; they will be expected to develop a brand identity, marketing slogan and eye-catching packaging as part of an exciting team building challenge.

Lets Play!

My Chocolate believe that the best decisions come from working in a relaxed happy atmosphere which is why they let the teams loose - cutting ,dipping and decorating, honing their newly acquired skills. These are the chocolates that they get to take home before the serious team building challenge begins.

Brainstorming, Communicating Effectively
Time to get down to business! Acting on the information given, the team will need to come to some creative and snappy decisions about their overall strategy.

Decision-Making

Teams will have just 90 minutes to perfect their chocolate making technique in order to create their teams’ box of presentation chocolates, as well as to create their packaging and marketing strategy.

Delegating

Teams will need to decide how they will be presenting their chocolate product to the panel and who will be the key-players for this.

Performing

With a “Dragons Den” style judging panel of potential investors, and fantastic prizes up for grabs, a high level of creatively and some friendly competition is guaranteed for this part of the team building challenge.
