Highlights

In this class, you will learn about the origins of cacao, where it is produced, and its importance throughout the history of Mexico and Oaxaca. We will explore different types of cacao pods and their unique characteristics, connecting you to the roots of this iconic ingredient. You will then create your own artisanal Oaxacan chocolate, learning each step of the process—from roasting and peeling to grinding and transforming cacao into oaxacan chocolate. We work closely with local producers to ensure an authentic and high-quality experience. Along the way, you will also learn how chocolate is traditionally enjoyed in Oaxaca, both as a drink and as a food, giving you a deeper appreciation for its cultural significance.

About Oaxaca City

Oaxaca City is the colonial capital of Oaxaca state, a stone-built highland city of markets, mole, mezcal and Zapotec ruins nearby.

Oaxaca de Juárez sits in a high valley at about 1,500 metres, its centre built of pale green stone around a shaded zócalo. The baroque church of Santo Domingo, with its gilded interior, and the attached former convent, now a cultural museum, are the grandest sights. Streets run with market stalls, painted walls and courtyard cafés, and the historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
