Adam Handling Chocolate Shop is a London-based chocolate atelier and experiential kitchen founded by the Adam Handling group. Located in central London, the shop offers a curated suite of hands-on chocolate experiences for visitors and chocolate enthusiasts. Sessions range from short tastings to multi-part masterclasses and combine tasting, technique, and creative making. Each experience is led by experienced chocolatiers and includes practical instruction, tasting notes, and materials to craft finished chocolates to take home.
Signature experiences include Truffle Shuffle—where participants sip English sparkling wine while exploring cacao flavors and then craft their own truffle and hot chocolate under expert guidance; Bean-to-Bar—an interactive workshop that walks guests through the journey from cacao fruit to finished chocolate bar while allowing personalization of flavours and toppings; Hand-Painting Chocolate Bon Bons—a decorative masterclass focused on painting, molding, and filling individual bon bons; and Lunch & Lesson—an extended offering that pairs chocolate making with a gourmet lunch at Frog, guided by a Michelin-starred chocolatier. The shop emphasizes technique, flavour education, and an approachable creative environment suitable for beginners and more experienced makers. All sessions supply ingredients and equipment; no prior experience is required. Adam Handling Chocolate Shop is also featured on The Adventure Collective, where the experiences are highlighted for visitors seeking premium, hands-on culinary activities in London.
