Wow! The chocolate was and is amazing! What a great little activity, one of my favourites of my trip so far. The chocolatier was very knowledgeable and making my own chocolate to bring home was so worth it. The kids loved every bite that I managed to bring home with me. It was so difficult not to eat it all before I boarded the plane.

The activity was nice and funny, and we were helped by two capable and smiley ladies :) We would have indeed enjoyed more "history of chocolate", though, and to be able to see how the chocolate mass is prepared. The lab is a bit quick, over only one hour. The taste of the chocolate was delicious, however ! Very good quality of the ingredients.

Great experience. The workshop started off with Patricia explaining how chocolate is made, how we get different types of it and then offered the different existing types to taste. Then Elisabetta showed how chocolate is being tempered and explained how this process is very important. She showed how to decorate a chocolate and then we started creating delicious bars, small chocolates and truffles. You can take back your creations at home and enjoy them. :) Also, after the workshop I was informed that there was a 20% discount on any kind of chocolate I would like to try from the store and it was a great opportunity for me to get some of their delicious ruby chocolate tablets. Overall, lovely. I would definitely recommend this workshop to chocolate enthusiasts.
