Deneyim Detayları

Ever wanted to make your own chocolate? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll grind cacao beans into chocolate, just like the Maya and Aztecs once did. Create your own chocolate bar and discover the pure flavours of cacao. As you work, you’ll also dive into the fascinating history of Belgian chocolate - from ancient chocolate drinks to the first bonbons.


During this workshop, you’ll:

• Taste a chocolate drink recipe dating back 5,000 years

• Transform cacao beans into chocolate yourself

• Recreate a 17th-century hot chocolate recipe

• Indulge in chocolate delicacies enjoyed by historical figures across centuries

• Discover chocolate’s origins as medicine

• Enjoy chocolate bonbons, including the iconic seashells


Please note: This is not a chocolate-making class focused on techniques like tempering, melting, or shaping chocolate into truffles or bonbons. Instead, participants will create chocolate from scratch by grinding cacao beans.

Bilmekte Fayda Var

  • Due to the fact that our shop is located in a historical building, it is not easily accessible by wheelchair. If you use a wheelchair or you have any other support needs, contact us beforehand so we can look together what we can do to make this experience accessible for you.
  • For this activity, we only welcome children aged 12 and older. The reason is that participants will be making their own chocolate by manually grinding cacao beans, which requires a certain amount of physical strength.
  • This activity takes place in a chocolate shop. The tasting room temperature is around 18°C to maintain the quality of the chocolate. We would advise to bring a sweater if you are easily cold.
  • This activity requires “normal” strength in your hands and wrists. If you experience reduced strength (for example due to rheumatism or arthritis) grinding the beans may be challenging.
  • Public transportation options are available nearby
  • Service animals allowed

This experience was amazing! Our tour guide was really knowledgeable and friendly. It was great to see how much effort goes into making a chocolate bar.
