5.00The class/tour was fun and informative. Our aptly named guide Coco was very helpful in the chocolate bar making activity. She told us lots of facts and history about cocoa and chocolate throughout the class. The chocolate bar we made was delicious and the whole experience was a delight. The shop also has a fantastic selection of different flavors of chocolate bars for purchase. Highly recommend the chocolate experience and the chocolatarium shop.
