Crown Media Curious Caterer
Hallmark Movies & Mysteries is premiering “Curious Caterer: Dying for Chocolate” on Sunday, April 10, at 9 p.m. Eastern/8 p.m. Central. The movie stars Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker. Read on to learn all about where the movie was filmed and the cast involved.
‘Curious Caterer: Dying for Chocolate’ Was Filmed in Canada
“Curious Caterer: Dying for Chocolate” was filmed in Canada, like many other Hallmark movies. The movie was filmed in the British Columbia area, including Vancouver, according to IMDbPro.
During filming, Andrew Walker shared that he took a road trip to Whistler while working in Vancouver.
The movie is based on a book published in 1992 called “Dying for Chocolate.” It was book two in “A Culinary Mystery” series (also called the “Goldy Schulz series”), FictionDB reported, and written by Diane Mott Davidson. Davidson has written a total of 17 books in the series, with the last one published in 2013.
When speaking with Swing My Heart Podcast, Walker said he hopes this movie will end up being turned into a series.
Walker told Southern Living that it was great to work with DeLoach again.
“I feel like it was such a gift to be able to do it with Nikki,” he said. “…We said…because we’d already done three movies together, we have the trust of the audience so let’s try to do something and bring something to people that’s much different than anything they’d ever seen us in.”
He shared a photo from filming at 4 a.m.
Walker said he studied detectives on shows like “True Detective” and “Mare of Easttown” to help prepare for his role. He said on Instagram that he loved the gig and is “so thankful I get to play this character.”
DeLoach also shared a photo while filming late at night.
She said it was so cold during night filming in Canada that she had to wear “two thermals, two pairs of tights, and a pair of Lulemons.”
She shared this next photo when they wrapped on March 5.
Walker replied, “BUT I DON’T WANNA WRAP!! 😫”
Here’s another behind-the-scenes photo.
And a fun video she shared during a night shoot is below.
She also wrote that she felt very lucky to work with Lochlyn Munro.
