Additionally, we thought it would be remiss of us as chocolatiers to let such a celebration pass without crafting a chocolate fit for his Majesty so we set about making a crown in dark chocolate.
The crown shaped chocolate has been created to recognise the King’s favourite fruit flavour. The Coronation Crown is filled with a layer of plum jam then topped with a dark spiced ganache– it’s fit for a King, his loyal subjects and lovers of all things chocolate!

The Georgian Theatre Royal
Free theatre tickets for SHEWOLVES -Tuesday 9th May, 7.30pm
Yes, you read that correctly!
To celebrate the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla - who are joint patrons of the Theatre - we are hosting a free event on Tuesday 9 May at 7.30pm.
Following an incredibly successful and highly critically acclaimed run at last year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe and a current UK tour, SHEWOLVES is aimed at young people aged 13-19 but will be of interest to any age!
Armed with a backpack full of Pop-tarts, Priya and Lou embark on a covert expedition into the wild. They want to fight back against the climate crisis and make real change, but when the wilderness closes in around them, first they have to overcome their differences and make their voices heard.
Somewhere between Booksmart, Little Miss Sunshine and Thelma & Louise, SHEWOLVES is a funny and empowering play about forging friendships when you’re a bit weird, the power of hope and the underestimated smartness of teens.
All tickets for the performance are free. To book, visit our online booking page or call the Box Office on 01748 825252.
The Green Howards Museum
King and Country
In this coronation year we explore the regiment’s royal connections, marking the many ways in which the Army and its sovereign are intertwined.
The King and Country exhibition is available to enjoy FREE OF CHARGE in the display case in the museum entrance. Pop in and take a look – the exhibition is available until Wednesday 10th May.
And finally, don’t forget the events organised by Richmond Town Council
