Our chocolate bar pouring course - the ideal corporate event for chocolate lovers

Whether nuts, freeze-dried fruits, cocoa nibs, crunchy flakes, cornflakes or rather candied ginger - your chocolate, your choice!

Are you still looking for an idea for a company event? Then you have found the ideal solution with our chocolate bar pouring course. Our chocolate bar pouring event gives you the opportunity to make two of your own chocolate bars as well as your own chocolate heart.

You will start your company event right away with the production of the chocolate heart. After a short introduction to making your own chocolate bars and hearts by the course leader, you will start to create your favourite chocolate. Now all the ingredients that are desired in the chocolate are selected.

Buttercream Cupcakes

There is a choice of exquisite ingredients such as:

Fruits

Raspberries, strawberries

Nuts

Hazelnuts, almonds, coconut flakes or pistachios

Crunchy ingredients

Cocoa nibs, flakes, rice crisps or cornflakes

Dried or candied fruits

Sultanas & ginger

Spices

Fleur du sel, chilli, coffee or pink pepper

Dark, white or milk couverture is available to pour the chocolate bars. As we attach great importance to quality, we only use the best Swiss chocolate (couverture). Dare to stand out from the crowd and mix two varieties. For example, how about a mix of dark and milk couverture? Let your creativity run wild.

The aim of the corporate event is for you and your team to go home with four individual chocolate bars and a chocolate heart that exactly match your taste. Thanks to our wide range of ingredients, we can make just that possible for you. What would you like? Freeze-dried raspberries, coconut cubes, flakes, cocoa nibs or ginger? We offer this and much more for your personal chocolate of choice. You can also customise the outside of the chocolate bar to suit your needs. Alternatively, how about a very thin layer of fleur de sel? Embellish your chocolate bar with edible flowers, sugar decorations, chocolate pearls or cocoa nibs. Our range of decorations is just as varied as our selection of ingredients.

After making the first two chocolate bars, you will be instructed by our course leader on how to correctly prepare the mould for the chocolate heart. To do this, polish the mould with kitchen paper. This step is necessary for the final shine of the chocolate.

After polishing, you can decide which ingredients you would like to have in the heart. Whether hazelnuts or pure chocolate, this decision is also up to you. The chocolate, ingredient and decoration choices are the same. Once the heart has been poured, it's time to make the final two chocolate bars. Armed with the newly gained chocolate knowledge, from the previously made chocolate bars and the chocolate heart, you can start directly with the next production round.

After making all the chocolate bars, practise writing with liquid chocolate to later label your homemade heart. After practising writing with chocolate, you also go straight to personalising the chocolate heart. You can use liquid chocolate to leave a sweet message on the heart.

Once all the sweet creations have cooled, they are beautifully wrapped to finish. Because the sweet delicacies can be personalised quickly and easily, they make excellent little sweet gifts for your family and friends.

This corporate event is also excellent as a customer event. Give your customers sweet moments. Of course, this event also goes down particularly well with foreign groups, who take great pleasure in making their own Swiss chocolate bars.

After your company event, the delicacies can be stored for up to 6 months. Freshly made chocolate always tastes best.

Our trained chocolatiers are proficient in German, Swiss German and English and will be happy to assist you in all three languages during your company event.

Are there still questions or uncertainties?

Here you will find an overview of the most frequently asked questions. If you have not found the answer to your question, please do not hesitate to contact us by phone at 044 480 14 14 or by e-mail to events@minischoggi.ch.

After the event, the organiser will receive an invoice by e-mail for the number of people booked, which must be paid within 14 days. Of course, it is also possible to send the payment slip by post on request.

The reason we send an invoice is that we do not have any cash registers on site to do the accounting. In rare cases, we may insist on advance payment or card payment because the invoice z.B. is addressed to a person with a foreign billing address. MiniSchoggi reserves this right at all times. We thank you for your understanding.

Unfortunately, the parking situation in the cities of Zurich and Bern is somewhat difficult and we cannot guarantee parking spaces there, but can only refer you to the parking spaces in the immediate vicinity. Thank you for your understanding.

In Zurich-Adliswil there are dozens of parking spaces along the river Sihl, which are even free of charge at the weekend. You will always find free spaces there. If, contrary to expectations, this is not the case, come up to the restaurant and we will show you where you can find additional parking spaces.

With every booked aperitif offer, we also include orange juice or mineral water with the prosecco for those people who do not wish to or are not allowed to consume alcohol.

The events usually take place at a large table and are therefore seated. Therefore, our event ideas are also very suitable for every person. At the chocolate bar events, on the other hand, you regularly get up, mix the ingredients yourself and pick up the chocolate yourself from the chocolate station. Therefore, standing up and sitting down as well as walking small distances in the room is regularly necessary there. However, if it only affects one person, this is no reason not to organise the event, as our course leader and certainly the other participants will be very happy to help.

At the cupcakes event, we deliberately avoid toppings that would not withstand a longer evening or warm temperatures. Decorations made of fondant, flower paste or royal icing can withstand warmer temperatures well, so it's absolutely no problem.

Chocolate can withstand temperatures of up to 25 °C well without direct sunlight. When storing in warm places, such as in the car or similar, it is advisable to take a cool box or similar with you in the car so that nothing happens.

If the temperatures are warmer, we will provide you with a cool bag for your chocolate creations instead of a normal carrier bag. This will keep them cool for several hours under normal conditions. However, if you are out in the sun for a longer period of time or the temperatures are very high, you can always put a cool drink in the cooler bag so that the chocolate still remains protected. In extremely warm weather (over 30 °C), we organise coolpads so that the chocolate certainly doesn't suffer.

At the cupcakes event, you will receive a special box for transport so that the cupcakes are well protected.

The cookies at the cookies event are packed in nice bags and then in a box so that they are well prepared for transport.

If you are decorating high heels at the event, you will receive a specially made box in which the moulded chocolate bar fits exactly. You attach your high heel to this chocolate bar with the help of some chocolate, so that the shoe is fixed. The shoe is therefore protected in the best possible way for further transport.

On the occasion of the praline team event and the chocolate bar event, you will receive a box for the pralines so that they are well protected and the truffles come in a bag. The bars will also be packed in transparent bags.

At the end of each event, you will receive a carrier bag for transport, which can also be labelled with your name so that there is no confusion.

If you are going to be on the road for a longer period of time, you can store the creations in a locker at the train station, in your car (if you have one) or, if you prefer, we can store the creations for a few days and you can collect them from us later.

The cupcakes have a shelf life of 1 week, although you can also freeze them together with the decoration. This extends the shelf life to 3 months.

The cookies have a shelf life of 8 weeks and can be stored at room temperature away from the sun.

Pralines and truffles can be kept at room temperature, protected from light, for 4 weeks and the chocolate bars and chocolate high heels, for at least 6 months.

You will therefore certainly have enough time to taste your creations or give them to your loved ones as gifts.

We ask that you arrive at your event on time so that the timings work out. If you arrive late, the course management will be forced to shorten the event accordingly. Depending on the day, the event room may be needed again before or after your event. Therefore, we are dependent on the rebuilding and cleaning time. Alternatively, the course management may have other appointments or be off work, so we would be grateful if you could arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before the event and leave the room afterwards so that the course management can start cleaning.

A cosy atmosphere is very important to us. Therefore, it is absolutely no problem and does not generate any additional costs if an event should last a little longer, but for the reasons mentioned above we cannot make our rooms available for games or the like.

We thank you very much for your cooperation and understanding.

Please notify us of any changes as soon as possible, preferably by e-mail or, in the case of events, within 24 hours by telephone on 044 480 14 14.

Reductions in the number of people: The entire preparation process begins a week before the event and the event rooms are usually set up days in advance, so that only the fresh ingredients and fillings need to be prepared on the day of the event. Therefore, if there is a reduction in the number of people at short notice, we can unfortunately no longer take this into account in the billing. However, we recommend that you still prepare the creations in the group for the person who is unable to attend, usually due to health reasons, so that this person can also enjoy the event at home.

Should the number of persons fall below 6 persons for the two-hour events or below 10 persons for the one-hour events, please still make the quantity for 6 or 10 persons, as we have to invoice this number of persons as a minimum.

Increases in the number of people: In the vast majority of situations, we can implement a short-term increase in the number of people without any problem. In individual cases, however, it may not be possible if z.B. massively more people come or the products are no longer in stock.

Further details on processing and invoicing as well as the exact procedure for events that have already been confirmed, complete cancellations or postponements can be found in detail in the General Terms and Conditions, which will be sent to you with the offer enquiry.
