Charlie has moved his chocolate factory to Bay Street in St Julian’s for the next 10-days with his team of Umpa-Lumpas treating guests to a variety of chocolate delicacies.

The Umpa-Lumpas provided the entertainment this morning for the opening of the 10-day Nestle chocofest.

Visitors were offered chocolate-flavoured cocktails, including Milky Bar, Kit-Kat and Aero, and an Aero chocolate drink. There were also chocolate treats, including cookies and chocolates.

The site includes a range of stalls with chocolate soap, cake pops, cupcakes, sweets and a chocolate fountain, and a host of entertaining attractions. These include Nestlé chocolate painting, a long chocolate collage by ITS students, body painting and specialist praline chocolate making.

The Nestlé Chocofest is open every day from noon to 6pm.

Next weekend, Master Chocolatier Andrew Farrugia, who holds  the Guinness World Record for the longest chocolate sculpture, will be creating chocolate centrepieces between noon and 7pm, and Richard Pons, Guinness World Record holder for chocolate cocktails, will be serving some of his creations.

Bay Street are offering two hours of free parking between 10am and 10pm in their outdoor car park to everyone making a purchase at the complex during the Nestlé Chocofest.
