Highlights
- The Belgian Chocolate Makers - The experience begins with a warm welcome from your chocolate makers and a delicious cup of hot chocolate when the weather is not too hot. During warm sunny days, of course hot chocolate is replaced by a fresh homemade lemonade. If you have opted for the VIP upgrade, you’ll be welcomed with a glass of Taittinger Champagne and we will offer you a gorgeous embroidered apron with our logo. While you drink, listen to a short but fascinating introduction into the world of Belgian chocolate and learn an array of chocolate making secrets. After the intro, the real fun begins with a demonstration of chocolate tempering on a marble table. It’s then time to have a go yourself and make your own chocolate treats with the help of expert chocolatiers. Spend the hour making your very own personalized and tasty mendiants, truffles and chocolate bars. We only use cacao from our plantations located in Philippines, Congo and Haiti. 100% no deforestation, sustainable and traceable. No child work. Premiums paid to farmers. At the end of the experience, package up your chocolates and take them home with you to share with friends, or enjoy alone! NOT SUITABLE FOR FOOD ALLERGY.

Chocolate anyone? - This was a lot of fun learning about chocolate - milk, dark and white chocolate. We got to taste the differences as we learned about them and then we created our own. With the discount after the class we purchased some pralines for gifts and wow they were amazing!!

Disappointing. Not at all worth the money. - It was very disappointing! The name is very misleading. It is not a chocolate making class. You just take the melted chocolate and put your choice of fixings in it. Nothing unique or special about it. It’s too expensive for that experience. I wish we didn’t spend so much money on it.
