Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel Sydney is launching their new Chocolate High Tea for chocolate lovers and sweet tooth's alike, to coincide with the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory show in town.

Already renowned for their high tea offerings (including vegan, gluten free and child friendly options) the hotel have launched their new Chocolate High Tea from January 2018. The chocolate high tea menu features mouth-watering sweet items such as handmade passionfruit lollipops, chocolate mud cake, chocolate mousse, caramel popping candy tarts, Oreo macarons and chocolate chip scones with cacao cream and strawberry jam. Savoury items include spinach and feta rolls and sausage rolls.

All of the items on the menu are made from scratch and prepared fresh daily by pastry chef Noa Nisell-Hauser, who has designed this menu which can be enjoyed by both little kids and kids at heart.

Pastry chef Noa joined the Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel Sydney after working for several years in other iconic cities such as Stockholm and Tel Aviv. Noa's passion for baking is evident in the Chocolate High Tea menu, as she wanted to provide something she could enjoy, as well as her child. The goal was to create a high tea that created the excitement and dazzle, that can be found in Roald Dahl's 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory'.

With this high tea being a sensory and tasty chocolate experience, it also is available during February, making it the perfect Valentine's Day treat. The hotel will also be running a competition to allow one lucky winner to spoil their loved one to a chocolate high tea during the “month of giving”. Our hotel's act of kindness will also involve giving away 3 Chocolate High Tea family passes to The Infants' Home, a Sydney early childhood centre.

Radisson Blu General Manager, Peter Tudehope, said:  

“Our food and beverage team are committed providing the highest quality High Tea for our customers, in addition to our large range of menu items available at the Fax Bar. To be able to order our special Chocolate High Tea, we're making the high tea experience even better! For this reason, we're also pleased to give away 3 High Tea family passes for some families of The Infants' Home to ensure everybody can enjoy such an exciting, chocolate-filled experience.”

The hotel is known for their progressive high tea menus, being one of first Sydney hotels to launch a gluten free high tea in 2015 and the first 5-star hotel in Sydney to introduce a Vegan High Tea in 2017. High tea is served daily in the Fax Bar or Lady Fairfax Room of the hotel between 10:30am and 4:30pm. Group bookings and private high tea functions are also welcomed. As the Chocolate High Tea is a specialized high tea, bookings are essential. The Chocolate High Tea is available for $49 per person or $125 for families of 2 adults and 2 kids under 10.
