Morning, noon and night : we want chocolate ! And even more so in autumn, when the crisp air calls for a sweet escape into the city’s best chocolate-making workshops. Because what could be more satisfying than creating – and then devouring – your own chocolate treats? Here are four irresistibly indulgent experiences guaranteed to delight every cocoa lover.
The Most Family-Friendly
It’s the museum you might not think to visit, but absolutely should ! Beyond discovering 4,000 years of cocoa history, the Chocolate Museum also offers hands-on workshops with a professional chocolatier. From chocolate bars to truffles, pralines, and ganache, you’ll uncover every secret behind the art of chocolate-making, guided by expert tips and techniques.
The “Six-Pack” One
Who needs abs when you can have chocolate bars ? In this fun and flavourful workshop hosted by Yasmine and Sébastien, you’ll learn how to make your very own chocolate bar starting from the cacao bean itself. The best part ? You can customise it with a variety of toppings and flavours before taking your masterpiece home.
The Chicest Experience
Just off Boulevard Saint-Germain, the prestigious Chocolat Foucher maison and its chocolate lab welcome you to craft your favourite confections: mendiants, bars, praline treats, and luxurious chocolate bites. You’ll leave with 300g of your own creations (to share…or not) and a wealth of know-how to recreate them at home.
The “Bean-to-Bar” Discovery
Forget wine tastings, here’s an experience just as refined, and far more indulgent. Sabrina and Andrés will guide you through the entire bean-to-bar process : from cacao pods and harvest to fermentation and crafting tools. The experience ends with a tasting of five exceptional chocolates, showcasing their subtle flavours and origins.
