CANCELLED - A Spoonful of Sugar: Medicines and Essences

Unfortunately this event has been cancelled. We apologise for any inconvenience.

Join us on Kirkgate to hear York’s very own chocolate expert Sophie Jewett (York Cocoa House) as she leads us on a journey exploring the role of food in medicine, and how this changed with the arrival of cocoa. Learn about some of confectionery’s early origins in the world of the apothecary and chemist and watch a demonstration of period medicinal confectionery.

Tickets are still available for our next event on 7 June, ‘A City of Friends and Family’ – find out more.
