The 1 star is for Viator. The workshop was cancelled and we were never notified. The company owners worked with Viator to process our refund quickly, so that’s a plus. It was just frustrating to have set aside a whole morning to attend this workshop, only to show up and mill around the building, trying to figure out why no one was there but us.

So much fun!!! Family friendly activity and since we were a small group, my 5 year old little girl was able to act as a mommy’s helper and learn to make chocolate!! Nu, our instructor was great and very knowledgable
Great for team building. Easy to do and fun. I recommend it to anyone interested in spending 2 hours getting messy.
Anna was absolutely wonderful. Such a fabulous experience for us all. Easy to follow and great results, My Dad (74) particularly loved the beer tasting!
This was a very fun workshop. Anna (our instructor) was so warm and friendly, we learned a lot. You don’t actually make the chocolate from the nibs, that would take way too long! You do start with very high quality Belgian chocolate that is delicious. You learn to temper it, mold and fill it etc. You also get to try some great local Belgian beers. You make quite a few chocolates to take with you. Overall, my husband and I had a great time!
