Valentine’s Day, the perfect day to express your love for your special ones. Celebrated all over the world, it’s a day filled with chocolates, flowers, love and laughter. People often enjoy candlelight dinners, gift their loved ones, or write handwritten letters as surprises.

Instead of following the usual traditions, we spiced up the afternoon with rivalry, naughty excess and chocolatey prizes.

The Sweet Prep
The KRM 1 cafeteria was all decked up into a hall of delight and anticipation as soon as the clock struck 12:30 PM. The buzz of excitement for the chocolate games blended with the sweet scent of cocoa filled the air, igniting the anticipation amongst everyone. Slowly, the cafeteria became crowded with enthusiastic contestants, each eager to dive into an event filled with laughter, delicious flavours and unforgettable memories.
Setting the Stage for a Chocolate-Filled Celebration
Finally, the stage was set and the guests started pouring in. They were greeted with a hassle-free check-in experience that included a QR code for quick registration and feedback gathering. This allowed all visitors to concentrate on what mattered most: having fun!
To get everyone in a fun mood, our senior community associate went around personally inviting members from various teams and companies to participate and the reaction was beyond our expectations. It was heartwarming!
Around 30-35 participants turned up, with 26 checking in officially. The atmosphere was electric and the stage was set for a Valentine’s Day celebration to remember.
The Chocolatey Games Begin!
Finally, with everyone settled, it was game time! And what celebration would be complete without a little bit of friendly competition? Two delicious chocolate-themed games lay in store for the players, each designed to challenge skill, patience and a genuine passion for chocolate!
Game 1: Chocolate Pong- You Aim, You Toss, You Win!
The initial challenge was an unqualified hit. Everybody has played beer pong, but here’s a sweeter version of it- Chocolate Pong!
Here’s how it went…
Players were required to drop a toffee into a cup placed on the table. If they got it in or toppled the cup, they won all the chocolates within. Sounds easy, doesn’t it? Well, it became a heated battle of skill, strategy, and a dash of luck.
Laughter filled the cafeteria as some of the contestants got it just right, while others stood by in dismay as their toffees hit the rim and bounced away. The cheers, high-fives and friendly rivalries made this game an overnight sensation. Who knew that chocolate had this effect on bringing out everyone’s competitive streak?
Game 2: Chopstick Challenge- A Dexterity Test!
Where Chocolate Pong was all about precision, Game 2 tested our speed and dexterity instead. And boy, was it tougher than it appeared!
Two large fish bowls filled to the brim with toffees were placed on a table, waiting for brave contestants to take on the challenge. The challenge lies in grabbing as many chocolates as possible in 30 seconds using only chopsticks.
Relaxing and yet fun-filled, this little game turned into a fierce competition. Some became experts in using chopsticks, while others fumbled along with laughable snatching of their toffees at the last second. The tension increased during every attempt and soon spilled over to even those watching, cheering on their comrades.
Beyond Games, a United Collaboration
But Love at First Bite wasn’t all chocolates and games; it was something more. It was a feeling of community.
Individuals across different teams, organizations and walks of life converged, coming together over moments shared, laughs shared and friendships forged. Formerly indifferent coworkers were suddenly rallying for one another, dishing out tips for the games, and even chocolate victories.
The affection and camaraderie in the air were unmistakable and even the Muthoot Finance SPOCs couldn’t avoid the chocolate charm!
The celebration wasn’t just limited to being a fun party but turned out to be a team-building activity.
A Sweet Ending to a Perfect Day
And then… It’s 2:30 PM!
It was time to wrap up what had been an amazing afternoon. However, no one left empty-handed. Whether it was a box of chocolates, a new friend, or simply cherished memories, everyone was a winner that day.
The smiles were contagious, the laughter was never-ending, and the happiness was unbeatable. It wasn’t just an event; it was an experience that brought the 315 Work Avenue family closer together.
