Porirua serving up a month of Whittaker’s chocolate delights
ChoctoberFest is coming to Porirua – the home of Whittaker’s chocolate.
Porirua City Council has created ChoctoberFest as a way to showcase the city’s fantastic hospitality businesses, while celebrating the much-loved Whittaker’s brand, made right here in Porirua.
For the whole month, 15 Porirua cafés will be serving up unique chocolate drinks, vying for the title of Top of the Chocs, and from 8–16 October, 11 Porirua cafés will offer delicious baked treats as part of the Whittaker’s Bake Off.

Hi, we have 1 very lonely calf which was abandoned by its mum. We are looking for a companion calf, still being bottle fed so our wee one isn't alone. This is urgent. Thank you.
