ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS chocolate
Cocoba is a Kent-based chocolate brand, with its flagship chocolate café in Bluewater
Shopping Centre. Cocoba’s founder and chief chocoholic, Darren, grew up in Australia
having hot chocolate made for him by his grandfather using real chocolate, and when
arriving in the UK couldn’t find anything like this and so created a chocolate café serving
hot chocolate made from real Belgian chocolate.
The café offers artisan coffee, loose leaf tea
served in tea pots, freshly made paninis, pastries
baked in store, an array of delicious chocolate
desserts and even their Signature High Tea
for Two.
Cocoba also has a range of over 150
retail chocolate products under the Cocoba
brand, over 50 of which, including all of the
chocolate bars, are handmade locally in their
Northfleet facility.

Enjoy a taste of the season at The Wheatsheaf at Bough Beech
Tucked away in quiet lanes a stone's throw from Hever Castle is where you'll find The Wheatsheaf at
Bough Beech, a hidden treasure just waiting to be discovered. A welcoming retreat in its secluded rural
spot, it's no surprise that The Wheatsheaf was once a favourite hunting lodge of Henry VIII. Roaring
log fires, cosy nooks and crannies and beautiful decor are only part of the story; the real draw for inthe-know diners is the exceptional menu created by Head Chef David Fuller.
And with Christmas on the horizon, David has devised a sumptuous
Christmas Fayre menu featuring favourite festive dishes recreated with his
personal touch. From classic roast turkey with all the trimmings to richly
flavoured pies filled with braised local venison, these recipes are all you'd
want from a celebratory winter meal.
The Wheatsheaf at Bough Beech is serving its Christmas Fayre menu for
pre-bookings from 1st December to 24th December (excluding Sundays),
priced at £22.95 per person for two courses, or £28.95 per person for three
courses. All menus are available to view online at
