Winter ChocFest 2023 - A Celebration of Decadent Hot Chocolate Delights!

The Barossa Valley Chocolate Company is thrilled to announce the highly anticipated launch of its annual Hot Chocolate Festival, this year titled ‘Winter ChocFest 2023’. Building on the success of previous years, the festival has been expanded, from four weeks to a full eight-week program, promising enjoyment for all chocolate enthusiasts.

The Winter ChocFest 2023 will take place at the Barossa Valley Chocolate Company, delighting guests with a delectable array of decadent hot chocolate drinks and mouth-watering desserts, all featuring handcrafted Barossa Valley Chocolate Company Chocolate.

“We are excited to present the family friendly Winter ChocFest 2023”, says Kate McClure, General Manager of the Barossa Valley Chocolate Company. “This year’s festival promises to be bigger and better than ever, with eight hot chocolate drink flavours created by our Chocolate team and this year we are including a selection of desserts catered to the whole family.”

Throughout the eight-week Winter ChocFest, the Barossa Valley Chocolate Company will introduce two hot chocolate drinks and two delightful desserts every fortnight. From August 2 to September 25, visitors will have the opportunity to indulge in an unforgettable chocolate journey.

Guests that have visited Barossa Valley Chocolate Company before and enjoyed one of their hot chocolate drinks will know what’s so special about the way they create their hot chocolate drinks. The team of expert chocolatiers, led by Amy Sajinovic have created eight flavours, three of which are new to the program, including the new Midnight Delight, made with award winning Lemon & Raspberry Dark Chocolate.

Our hot chocolate drinks are certainly UNIQUE to the way most Australians would have made them at home as kids” - Amy Sajinovic, Head Chocolatier

“We make ours with our chocolate and every year we try to create new and interesting flavours to keep our guest excited and make it worth coming back for more. We love seeing kids and grown-ups trying our different flavours and what’s great is that they can find the flavour they like the most and take home some chocolate frogs to make their own hot chocolates at home”.

For chocolate lovers unable to visit or seeking to bring the ChocFest experience home, the Barossa Valley Chocolate Company have created some ‘at home’ packs that are available in-store and online.

Hot Chocolate drink hampers and 90g 5 Frog Packs that will be released alongside each of the hot chocolate drink releases, these available for purchase both in-store and online (see our Winter ChocFest 2023 Collection below to buy online).
