Terracotta Warrior Chocolate Paint Kit

MELBOURNE June 2019

To celebrate Terracotta Warriors: Guardians of Immortality the new Melbourne Winter Masterpieces exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria, Sofitel Melbourne On Collins are providing exhibition guests and guests to the hotel a Terracotta Warrior Paint Kit.

Over 2,200 years has passed since anyone has seen the original colours of the Terracotta Warriors. Due to their fragility and transparent lacquer coating colours have since faded or peeled off. Exhibition guests and guests of the hotel have the opportunity to paint them back using coloured chocolate that you melt in the microwave.

Sofitel has also infused a high tea with the Terracotta Warrior Chocolate Paint Kits which is highlighted by a crispy Wonton with chocolate, ginger and pineapple. All the desserts will be accompanied by a hot buffet selection of Chinese favourites, such as steamed pork buns and crispy fried wontons.

Terracotta Warrior Chocolate Paint Kits can be purchased at the hotel in Sofi’s Lounge or at National Gallery of Victoria Gift Store for $19.95. High tea gastronomes can embrace their inner artist at Sofi’s Lounge from 2.30pm every Saturday and Sunday from 25th May until 13th October 2019 for $99 per adult.
