About
When eccentric entrepreneur Willie Harcourt-Cooze first burst onto Channel 4, he whipped up audiences into a chocolate frenzy, consistently drawing in excellent ratings.
Series one followed Willie, his wife Tania and their three young children as Willie’s dream to grow his own cocoa beans on his Venezuelan farm and then turn them into premium chocolate at his Devon factory, became a reality.
The follow-up series, Willie’s Chocolate Revolution: Raising The Bar sees Willie’s business expand and his sights set firmly on the confectionary market. Alongside his at empts to produce a flavoursome milk chocolate, he’ll undertake the greater challenge of turning the nation on to real chocolate through a series of stunts and public events. A one hour Christmas special followed the entire Harcourt-Cooze family prepare indulgent chocolate recipes for a huge Christmas Eve party and family Christmas dinner.
Interspersed with drama as Willie risks everything to pursue his goal, Willie’s Wonky Chocolate Factory also features demonstrations of mouth-watering chocolate recipes. A hybrid of adventure, entrepreneurship, travel, cookery and drama, this is factual entertainment at its best.
