하이라이트
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.

5A Ghent Must!
We LOVED this experience. My teens are still talking about their experience. History and Bean to Bar!
5Highly recommend!
Absolutely LOVED it! Learned so much about chocolate and really enjoyed trying the different parts of the Cacao.
5This experience was...
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.
5Fantastic back to basics
We made a bar of chocolate from scratch by hand! A fabulous experience. We learned the history of chocolate, tried original drinking chocolate, made chocolate tea, flavoured our own drinking chocolate and tasted an exquisite selection of chocolates. A very original, personal and professional experience.
5An unforgettable chocolate experience at the Chocolate Embassy
Dorien and Liu are two enthusiastic chocolate lovers who have turned their passion into a special business. We were warmly welcomed by Liu who brought the history of chocolate to life in a lively and interactive way. You get to get to work yourself and experience what it's like to make chocolate from scratch – which makes you appreciate the pure taste of the "black gold" even more. It is surprising to discover what is possible with just a few cocoa beans. I received this workshop as a gift from my son; It was a unique experience and provides beautiful memories.
5Birthday Chocolate Making Experience
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience, booked for my partner's birthday weekend. Liu was very friendly, funny, informative, and accommodating throughout, striking a great balance befitting of the occasion. We would certainly recommend this to anyone interested and wish to personally thank Liu for his time and passion.

- 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.
- 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.
- 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 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.

About Ghent
Ghent, in Flanders, is a medieval city of canals, a castle and Gothic churches, home to a large university and a busy cultural life.
Ghent grew rich on the cloth trade at the meeting of the Scheldt and Leie rivers, and its old centre still shows it. The Graslei and Korenlei quays are lined with guild houses, and the Gravensteen, a twelfth-century castle of the counts of Flanders, rises from the water. Three towers dominate the skyline: the Belfry, St Nicholas' Church and St Bavo's Cathedral.
Top-ranked sights in Ghent: St. Bavo's Cathedral (Sint-Baafskathedraal), Graslei and Korenlei, Belfry and Lakenhalle (Bell Tower and Cloth Hall).
