The whole mad experience comes courtesy of creative masterminds Bompas & Parr, whose previous culinary spectaculars have included a chocolate waterfall, an evening of jelly architecture, and a dirt banquet. The event heralds the arrival of Truvia - a calorie-free sweetener made from the leaves of the stevia plant - in the UK.
Upon arrival visitors are given crystals (to be exchanged for cocktails created with Truvia) and invited to brave a waterfall while taking a trip across an emerald lake in a rowing boat big enough for two.
Word to the wise: the cocktails may not assist you in terms of steering your boat in the correct direction.
