chappel chocolate house
Essex chocolatier, Sarah Knights, specialises in making delicious, traditional,
handmade artisan chocolates, as well offering chocolate courses, workshops,
demonstrations and parties. Due to the Coronavirus we are currently only courses
and workshops on a by appointment basis only. If you would like to book please
contact me directly . Sarah says ‘As well as making handmade chocolates we
specialise in the tuition of chocolate making’. If you would like to know about
how it all started then read on! Before starting on my ‘chocolate journey’ I
worked in the telecoms industry and then with my husband running our own railway
engineering business where I was (and still am) Finance Director in my spare
time! The railway business also operates Poplar Miniature Railway at Poplar
Nurseries Marks Tey. In May 2012, I was asked to run a chocolate stall at a
local pub ‘fund raiser’ and loved it so much I decided to set up my own
business. Since then I have expanded to make a wider range of chocolates, which
as well as selling from my shop at Poplar Nurseries I sell to local hotels, farm
shops, florists and seasonal markets. My customers currently include The Angel
Hotel Bury, The Salthouse at Ipswich, Dilly’s florist Colchester, The Hearing
Centre Colchester.
