Our staff are genuine artisan chocolate makers, certified by the Federal Belgian Government. In our boutiques, you can discover everything our chocolatiers create by hand, a showcase of creativity, craftsmanship, and passion. We are the only certified artisan chocolate maker in the city of Brussels, and the only one not using industrial chocolate in our workshops. All the chocolate you’ll work with is crafted from premium cacao, fully traceable, and sourced through a 100% ethical and sustainable supply chain, meaning no deforestation, no child labor, and fair income for farmers. In fact, 33% of the ticket price you pay for the workshop goes directly to support cacao farmers, ensuring them a decent and dignified living. We are independent and proudly authentic, not part of any industrial group. During your visit, you’ll also have the opportunity to see our bean-to-bar machinery and receive explanations directly from our chocolate makers.

Patricia was amazing. Shared so much info about chocolate with us. Really enjoyed the entire workshop.
Thank you so much! We’re delighted you enjoyed the workshop. Patricia will be very happy to hear your kind words! 😊 We hope you left with lots of new chocolate knowledge, great memories, and of course plenty of delicious chocolate!
Patricia was wonderful! Very knowledgeable, excellent English, very funny, imparts a lot of good information.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the workshop with Patricia. Her knowledge, passion, and sense of humor really make the experience special. We’ll be very happy to share your kind words with her. Thank you for joining us! 🍫❤️
If you are looking for an incredibly fun experience where you also learn about the history and process of chocolate making, this is the workshop for you. Our teacher, Patricia, was extremely informative about each step as we created both milk and dark chocolate delicacies. She guided us with clear directions and a wonderful sense of humor. The protocols for cleanliness and safety were an important part of the experience. We each walked away with a scrumptious box of chocolates which we made ourselves and great memories to treasure from our trip.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so happy you had such a great time with Patricia and enjoyed discovering how chocolate is made. We love that you went home not only with a box full of your own chocolates, but also with some great memories from Brussels. We hope to see you again one day! 🍫❤️
How chocolate is made from start to finish... Bean to Bar... There is more to it than you realise.... How to make your own chocolate .. and bring home too! It's a skill to be enamored....
Thank you so much! 🍫 We’re delighted you enjoyed discovering the entire Bean-to-Bar journey, from cacao bean to finished chocolate. There’s so much more behind chocolate than most people imagine! And of course, the best part is creating your own chocolates and taking them home. Thank you for sharing your experience! ❤️
Excellent, Fun and informative experience ! Patricia was a fantastic chocolatier ! Very informative and fun !
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! 🍫😊 We’re delighted you found the experience both fun and informative. Patricia will be thrilled to hear your lovely feedback! Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another chocolate experience in Brussels! ❤️🇧🇪
Belgium is known for chocolate and this class lived up to expectations. Between making our own chocolate and tasting the chocolate throughout the process, made this an amazing class. They are bean to table chocolate shop which makes it more special
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🍫 We’re delighted that the experience lived up to your expectations of Belgian chocolate. Making chocolate directly from the cacao bean is at the heart of what we do, so we’re especially happy that you enjoyed tasting the different stages of the bean-to-bar process as well as creating your own chocolates. Thank you for joining us and for highlighting what makes our workshop so special. We hope to welcome you back to Brussels for another chocolate experience soon! ❤️
I was pretty underwhelmed with the experience given the price. For €90, we only got to taste a few chocolates and the intermediate products & then decorate 2 chocolate bars to take home (I just got a glass of champagne & an apron for the “VIP upgrade”). The bean to bar framing really oversells it & it should probably be called chocolate making workshop. This could be a good activity for families & kids, if you can find it at a discount.
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry the experience did not meet your expectations, but we would like to clarify an important point. “Bean-to-bar” is not a marketing framing: it describes what we actually are. We are a genuine bean-to-bar chocolate maker and produce our chocolate ourselves from cacao beans inside our Brussels factory. During the workshop, we explain the complete process and let participants taste cacao and chocolate at different stages. Producing an entire batch from raw beans during a 90-minute workshop would simply be impossible, as the process takes many hours. The VIP upgrade is also clearly described before booking: it includes priority access, an apron and a glass of sparkling wine. It does not include a different workshop programme. We completely accept that the experience may not represent good value for everyone. However, we respectfully disagree that our description “oversells” the experience. The programme and VIP inclusions are clearly stated before purchase, and we deliver exactly what is advertised.
Thoroughly enjoyed the chocolate workshop. Learned more than we expected and the chocolate eating was divine.
Thank you so much! 🍫 We’re delighted you thoroughly enjoyed the workshop, learned plenty along the way, and, most importantly, enjoyed the chocolate tasting! 😊 Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
My teenage son and I booked on and had a brilliant time. There were 8 of us in the session, we all made lots of chocolate to take away and had a useful lesson in the life of a chocolate from bean to bar. The 20% discount in the shop after was a nice touch. Apparently they might be coming to London next year... happy days!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! 🍫 We’re delighted that you and your son had such a brilliant time with us and enjoyed discovering the journey from bean to bar; as well as taking home plenty of your own chocolate creations! And yes… London is definitely on our minds for next year. 😉🇬🇧🍫 Watch this space! We hope to welcome you both again soon; in Brussels or perhaps London!
Very fun experience and learned a lot about chocolate and got to make my own dark and milk varieties.
Thank you so much for your review! We’re delighted you had such a fun experience and learned more about the world of chocolate. Making your own dark and milk chocolate is always a highlight! 🍫 We hope to welcome you back for another chocolate adventure soon.
