You may or may not have heard of it but every year, for one week, all across the world, chocolate makers, chocolatiers and chocolate lovers come together to celebrate their favourite food.
Special event: Cocoa Jones on Old Lodge Lane is staging an evening dedicated to chocolate this Thursday
And we are now in the middle of Chocolate Week, which runs until Saturday.
As Croydon’s very own chocolatier, Cocoa Jones on Old Lodge Lane is joining the party and throwing open the doors of their chocolate factory and shop open for a very special evening this Thursday, October 16, from 5pm to 7pm.
Cocoa Jones’s Michael Ogazi says: “We’ll be doing demonstrations on how to make your own chocolate bar, providing samples of different varieties of chocolate and hot chocolate from around the world, as well as discussing the history and future of our favourite food.”
