Cacao-ing down to Christmas? Get yourself and your loved ones chocolate gifts at Mr. Bucket’s inaugural Christmas Village at the chocolate factory in Dempsey! The chocolateria transforms into a festive village that reminds us of the Christmas markets in Europe, with mulled wine, hot chocolate, s’mores, and a Christmas Tree creation corner with unlimited toppings!
We give you the five highlights of our chocolate overdose at Mr Bucket’s Christmas Village. Well, one can never have too many chocolates right? (Says no mother ever)
Five Highlights of Mr Bucket’s Christmas Village
Build Your Own Chocolate Christmas Tree
We got to build our own Chocolate Christmas Tree – at Mr Bucket.
The biggest draw was the custom Chocolate Christmas Tree station.
First, choose your preferred base – oat milk or dark chocolate. Then proceed to personalise it with over 15 toppings like sea salt popcorn, pretzel, little stars, mini marshmallows, candy cane, popping candy, and crushed pistachios.
This child-friendly activity will be a draw for little ones.
In addition to decorating the Chocolate tree with their favourite toppings, it was a delightful opportunity to be creative.
Once complete, the Chocolate Christmas Tree is presented in a gift set complete with a wooden hammer. What a smashing way to herald the season.
The cost of creating your festive chocolate is $28 for a slab with unlimited toppings. The wait time for it to be ready takes between 30 to 40 minutes.
Hot Chocolate, Mulled Wine, and S’mores Station
Who can resist the draw of hot chocolate, mulled wine, or chocolate smores made from Asian Cacao?
The friendly service at the station will warm you up with delicious hot chocolate and mulled wine paired with freshly torched rosemary smores dipped in chocolate. If you are looking for more treats, there are special dine-in selections featuring handcrafted chocolate entremets and pastries.
