Valrhona Chocolate Festival Afternoon Tea

This December, The Chocolate Festival will be holding an exclusive Chocolate Afternoon Tea hosted by French Chocolatier Valrhona in association with Kendall & Simms on Saturday 14th December 2013. Based on characters and events from Joanne Harris’ international best-selling novel ‘Chocolat’, the tea will feature beautiful chocolate scones, savouries and pastries specially created by Andrew Gravett, Valrhona’s Patissier for Nothern Europe.

Served in the comfortable surroundings of Brasserie Blanc just opposite the festival, there will be two tea sittings; one at 2pm and the other at 4.30pm. Kendall & Simms will be creating a special selection of savoury food to accompany the sweet treats created by Valrhona’s Patissier.
