Indulge in 12 days of strawberry-inspired treats at the Surf Coast’s A Strawberry Affair

Words by Staff Writer

Treat yourself to a bounty of berry delectable delights inspired by new season strawberries from pastries, desserts and chocolate creations to special edition hot chocs, milkshakes and ice creams.

Get ready to embark on a delectable journey as the Great Ocean Road Chocolaterie & Ice Creamery’s skilled Chocolatiers and Pastry Chefs celebrate the arrival of the new strawberry season. Running for 12 heavenly days, the indulgent combination of chocolate and strawberries, along with other berry-licious treats, will be celebrated at the beloved venue from October 11th to 22nd as part of the annual event – A Strawberry Affair!

Taking place along the Great Ocean Road, as well as at the charming Chocolaterie destinations in the Yarra Valley and on the Mornington Peninsula, prepare to be enamored by a mouthwatering array of pastries, brownies, limited edition churros, waffles, Sensational Sundaes, hot chocolates, milkshakes, and freshly churned ice creams – all paying homage to the beloved berry, the strawberry.

Keep up with the latest food and booze news across the region here.

For those who relish the classics, treat yourself to freshly picked strawberries enveloped in your choice of white, milk, dark, or ruby couverture chocolate. Or, embark on a new adventure with ChocBerry Creamalicious Bowls, where luscious berries meet your preferred chocolate, and velvety swirls of soft-serve vanilla gelato.

Indulgence knows no bounds with decadent handcrafted chocolate truffles, blocks, and bars, where strawberries take centre stage. In the cafe, you’ll find a bunch of dedicated treats, including strawberry tarts, strawberry fondues, strawberry mania sundaes, milkshakes and hot chocolates, and ice creams. You’ll also be able to discover chocolatey treats in the showroom to take home such as Berry Brownie in a Jar, choc coated strawberry & passionfruit marshmallows, floral berry bark, honey-berry rocky road and much more.

But that’s not all! Elevate your Strawberry Affair experience with the famed Tasting Sessions. Dive into a world of berry-licious wonders by sampling and savouring ten mini creations during a 45-minute tasting session. Then, get hands-on as you learn the art of crafting your very own strawberry-inspired chocolate disk. This immersive experience is priced at $24 per person and will be hosted in Private Experience Rooms at select times throughout Strawberry Affair. Bookings are a must, so secure your spot now!

It’s running for 12 heavenly days only, 11-22 October, so don’t sleep on it.
