What Tasty team building does for you

Tasting events are tailored to meet your specific team building objectives and work well to:

  • Offer your team a new skill
  • Entertain your clients
  • Give your team a hands on approach
  • Provide fun!

What's Cooking?

Teams work under the instruction of our Head Chef from a local cookery school. With professional, hands-on guidance, teams learn valuable techniques, have fun, and work as a team to complete their tasks in the time allocated. What's Cooking? is a great, hands on event which encourages co-operation whilst learning and having fun. Teams are judged on menu and technique, service and savvy, creative flair and of course taste!

Chocolate Heaven

Live the life of a chocolatier for the day! Guests learn the process of chocolate making and enjoy the all-important tasting before donning their aprons to cut, dip and decorate chocolates to their heart's content. A relaxed, casual atmosphere allows your team to enjoy some messy fun and chocolate indulgence whilst learning new skills with the expert guidance of our professionals. Guests are given a box tied with a ribbon of their tasty creations to take away and share if they wish – that is if there are any left!

Cup Cakes Galore

These days the height of fashion comes in little cake cases namely – cupcakes! Learn to make scrumptious, fluffy cupcakes and decorate them like a pro. Guests learn to pipe buttercream icing, roll and cut marzipan to create decorative shapes, use sugar paste colours, and decorate cakes with glitter, sprinkles and more! At the end of the workshop, you'll take home a box of your very own scrumptious cupcake creations and recipes for cupcakes and buttercream - yum!

Canapé Creations

Our professional chef will demonstrate how to construct a selection of chic, tasty canapés. Your group will learn useful techniques before trying them for themselves and make opulent canapés of their own invention. After cooking up a treat, teams are assessed on their creativity, technique, presentation and of course the taste. Bon apetit!

Sniff, Spit & Tell the Diff

A selection of different wines is provided with a tutorial of knowledge and your task is to tell the difference between the wines at the end…hmm, French or Italian? Organic or not? Cool climate or warm climate? New World vs. Old world?

Champagne Blind

A selection of Champagnes and one sparkling wine are decanted and shared with an informative explanation of each. With the knowledge supplied and the guest's new found expertise, they must identify the sparkling wine in the selection. Great for groups as part of a champagne reception!
