In the summer of 2003, in the midst of Hannah’s degree and with the niggling feeling that something wasn’t right, Hannah took a trip to Europe to figure out what she wanted to do. It didn’t take long before she realised that her trip seemed to centre around one thing… chocolate!

Once Hannah was back from her travels, she began to wonder if there was something she could do with her chocolate obsession? Before she knew it, Hannah’s tiny flat had transformed into a makeshift chocolate kitchen. She started to experiment with batches of fresh cream truffles, pralines and even a spiced chocolate cocktail. Unsurprisingly, friends and family were more than willing to taste her creations and soon wanted to try their hand at chocolate making too. With this, a new idea started to form. Could Hannah host chocolate workshops?

Thinking she had something unique, Hannah took the plunge. She dropped out of university and MyChocolate was born. The final part of the jigsaw was complete when she began to hire actors and train them to become chocolatiers, thus ensuring that MyChocolate workshops are delivered in the most theatrical and flamboyant fashion!

Since then, MyChocolate has delivered thousands of indulgent chocolate events and regularly delight hundreds of guests a week. Featured on BBC's The Apprentice and in Time Out London, Hannah and her team now run corporate events for giants such as the BBC, ASOS, The Times and Google, capturing the hearts of chocolate lovers everywhere.
