If you want to learn about chocolate and have a moment - Do This!!

Going into this I did not know what to expect. I was planning this trip to Europe for my wife’s 50th birthday and she loves chocolate, we planned on bringing our 11 year old daughter. From the very beginning after signing up I almost immediately received an email communication from Dorien confirming the reservation and asking some questions to help personalize the experience. From there our conversation back and forth was amazing. She was able to set the time to better fit our schedule and she r...read more

Chocolade Ambassade is elevating chocolate tastings beyond just trying different bars

This experience was amazing! If you are someone who treats dining as a hobby, the private chocolate experience is a must. We are so glad we went with this more intimate, more thoughtful chocolate tasting over the other options for chocolate tours in Ghent. Dorien is incredibly kind and clearly cares about the nuances of chocolate. We were so impressed by her knowledge and had multiple fantastic chocolates paired with interesting, delicious ingredients. We loved that Dorien gave us an opportuni...read more

Discovering cacao

I would recommend this experience just for the unique cacao drinks alone. I didn't know anything about cacao but it was fascinating to taste the fruit, brew, and the tea. You basically get to try every step in the chocolate-making process, plus some unique chocolate pairings at the end.

It turned my husband into a chocolate lover

I booked this experience because I am a big lover of chocolate. My husband, on the other hand, was a bit hesitant at first considering our time in Ghent was limited. But now he can't stop talking about how great the whole experience was! He especially liked the homemade chocolate liqueur, he keeps raving about it. All in all, well worth the money and the time! :)

Fantastische ervaring

Van begin tot einde echt een topervaring! Deze twee uur zijn echt voorbij gevlogen. We genieten nog steeds na van al dat lekkers dat we geproefd hebben. Voor België is dit echt wel uniek, een onverwachte parel. We hebben ook zoveel bijgeleerd! Het cacao-fruit en de bean-to-bar chocolade waren voor ons echt een eye-opener.
