WITH
Jennifer | about the guide

This 3-hour chocolate tour is an ideal way to see a sweeter side to London while indulging in chocolate from its finest boutiques. The Mayfair Chocolate Tour takes you back in time to discover traditional English treats and learn more about the history of Mayfair, one of London’s most prestigious boroughs sitting in pride of place on the Monopoly board. Dominated by foreign embassies, luxurious 5* hotels and chic shops, Mayfair is a delightful place to wander, window-shop and sip rich, creamy hot chocolate. You’ll make a hot chocolate and pastry stop at one of London’s most beautiful and unusual locations, while also hearing stories and secrets about this West London district perched just off Hyde Park. As you stop at different chocolatiers, you’ll have the chance to chat to the experts to find out more about the history of chocolate and how it is made. You’ll also sample a wide variety of chocolate ranging from English fondants, a firm favorite of Queen Elizabeth, to inspired European creations containing beer or spices and reworked English desserts like banoffee pie. This tour is ideal for history and/or chocolate lovers and, by the end of the three hours, you’ll know more about this vibrant city and also feel completely chocolated out.

I absolutely love food and chocolate has been an obsession since my childhood in the Australian countryside when sneaked Cadbury’s Dairy Milk from the cupboard and started to experiment in the kitchen. After travelling the world in search of incredible food experiences, I settled in the culinary melting pot of London, which I explored enthusiastically. Combining my two passions, I decided to fulfil my dream of setting up a business to show people around London and provide insight into chocolate. 9 years later, I still love meeting new people and introducing them to incredible chocolate. As well as running my chocolate tours, I am currently consulting for various businesses on cost analysis, strategy, taste analysis and recipe development. I also write and speak about chocolate, desserts and food for different events and publications, and am hatching plenty of plans for the future. I was privileged enough to be on the Grand Jury of the International Chocolate Awards, Academy of Chocolate Awards and Great Taste Awards. If you have a sweet tooth, a curious mind and want to find out more about chocolate and amazing city of London, these are the tours for you!

Our family chocolate tour with Jennifer was extraordinary and we highly recommend it! I had toured with Jennifer and my son 5 years ago and this time was as wonderful. So informative and educational from the origins, growth, process of Cacao and finally how chocolate is made. We visited 5 lovely chocolate shops and the walking tour was so much fun. Jennifer has a wealth of knowledge in chocolate but is gracious to sprinkle historical facts and tidbits about London’s history and architecture. We loved it so much!!
