Highlights
- Menchaca Chocolates - You will be given everything you need to make a 14oz tray of your own custom designed Chocolate Bark. You will take it home, wrapped and sealed in a wooden tray and little wooden hammer to break apart at home or a Dinner Party. There is nothing more special then to say “I made this!” We make the finest chocolate using the highest quality ingrediencies and our beans are ethically sourced. We have 60% dark or 40% milk (oat milk) dairy/gluten/soy free, VEGAN craft chocolate. You will be handed a Tile of your choice of freshly poured fluid chocolate where you can begin designing your own flavor choosing from many inclusions such as: nuts, dried fruits, seasonings and salts. You can get creative and make a symmetrical design, landscape, or even a face using candied ginger, blueberry and pretzel sticks for example! The Chocolate making is in our Factory…so you will be able to catch one of our Menchaca’s Micro Batch Craft Chocolate Factory Tours. A great activity for multi age groups or a romantic night out with a special someone. BYOB + glasses and opener if you like. Large parties please book in advance and call first.

Additional Information
At Menchaca Chocolates, we view ourselves as pioneers continually reshaping an ancient bean discovered 150 miles away from the equator. We believe that to fully appreciate this enchanting bean, one must engage all their senses: taste, touch, smell, sound and visual changes. Our Chocolate & Art workshops were created for this purpose. Here, you can discover the potential of chocolate, create a customised chocolate product, and if you wish, design a label or box to package it. Additionally, you can gain insight into our production process during Mr. Menchaca’s Micro-batch Chocolate Factory Tour!

Funtastic - This was an experience to remember. This will do the trick if you're looking for something out of the ordinary. We had a fabulous time. The chocolate is delicious, and don't forget the tea.

Something different, memorable and too fun - Not 5 stars, but 5 to the fifth power!
I wanted something different to do on a recent trip to Santa Barbara with my husband, sister and brother-in-law….you can only do so much wine tasting, dining and bike riding. Booking a chocolate making session at Menchaca’s was nothing like we had done before and it was so much fun!!
Three kinds of chocolate, thousands of options to add to it, decorating the boxes it goes in and the ever charming Mr. And Mrs. Chocolate (Menchacas) made a very special memory unforgettable! We shared our story with everyone we met on our trip!
