A sweet escape as Chocolate At Home brings hands-on chocolate workshops to Stone

Chocolate lovers, rejoice! Stone is about to get a whole lot sweeter with the arrival of Chocolate At Home, an immersive chocolate-making experience led by world-renowned chocolatier and TV chef Paul A. Young.

Opening this month at Whitebridge Industrial Estate, the studio will offer hands-on workshops, private masterclasses, and indulgent chocolate events for all.

A passion for chocolate, now in Stone

Paul A. Young has been at the forefront of artisan chocolate-making for over 20 years. Having owned four chocolate shops in London and appeared on TV sharing his expertise, he’s now bringing his passion for teaching to Stone, alongside assistant chocolatier and partner David Wolstenholme.

“I started Chocolate At Home in 2023 by inviting people into my home to learn,” Paul explained. “Now, we’re creating a dedicated space in Stone where anyone can come and experience the joy of making handmade chocolates.”

What’s on offer?

Chocolate At Home offers one-of-a-kind experiences designed for all skill levels, whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to refine your craft.

Masterclasses & workshops

• One-to-one masterclass with Paul (6-hour immersive experience)
• Small group workshops (2–4 people)
• Couples chocolate-making experiences
• Chocolate truffle, brownie, and cookie-making classes
• Evening and weekend tasting events

Unique chocolate experiences

• Corporate team-building events

Each session is fully hands-on, covering everything from chocolate tempering and ganache-making to moulding and decoration. And, of course, guests take home everything they create!

What made you choose Strone?

With its central UK location, Stone is the perfect place for Paul and David to launch their chocolate studio. “David is local to Stone, so it made sense to set up here,” Paul shared. “It’s a welcoming town, and we’re excited to bring something new and truly indulgent to the area.”

Unlike anything else in Staffordshire, Chocolate At Home is an experiential business focused on fun, creativity, and indulgence. Whether you’re a resident or visiting from further afield, you’ll leave with not just delicious chocolates, but skills to create your own at home.
