Will you be a Choccy Dream Maker?

Donation protected
Imagine if you will... a dedicated Chocolate Visitor Experience for the North Coast –  a venue designed to showcase our collective love of chocolate, with workshop space for education and tastings, for creation and making, and for exploring the wonderful world of chocolate. Imagine a place that would be make the chocolate dreams of kids and adults come alive. A venue for schools and groups of all kinds to gather, to learn and to experience chocolate making and tasting.

Imagine you can help to make this a reality.

Since we began seven years ago, The Chocolate Manor has become the producer of choice for indulgent, delicious and creative personalised chocolate and bespoke chocolate experiences. We are a proud member of the Taste Causeway Collaborative Growth Network, showcasing the Coast with the Most!


I am the founder, Geri Martin, a mum of two from Coleraine, and I have poured my passion and creativity into every bar we’ve made, every workshop we’ve hosted and every personalised piece we have designed. Our range of delicious handcrafted creations allow our customers to delight and impress theirs, and I recently began to employ local staff to help us grow the business even further.

I also share my enthusiasm and love of chocolate through interactive, educational and indulgent chocolate experiences, including making sessions and tastings for individuals and groups of all ages and sizes.

We have launched this funding project to help us share our love of chocolate with even more people. We have outgrown our current production space and we dream of having our very own Chocolate Manor venue, that will not only allow us to continue to make our very in demand products, but also to welcome visitors who want to learn about, make, taste and experience everything chocolate has to offer!

We have identified the perfect location – and we need your help to transform it into the space we have been dreaming of.

We know we don’t have to give rewards, but if you choose to become a Choccy Dream Maker, you will forever be a treasured member of our chocolate family and so we have created a range of special treats for those who contribute to making this dream a reality.

If you choose to support us as part of your Christmas gifts this year, please ensure you contribute before midnight on Thursday 19th December, as we will dispatch your chosen reward in time for Christmas delivery.

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all of you in advance for helping us to bring more joy through chocolate, and we look forward to welcoming you to the new Chocolate Manor location in 2020.
