Fun in Brussels making Belgian Chocolates!
Pamela_T, May 2024
It was so much fun! We made delicious chocolates and learned a great deal about the chocolate making process. It was a good mix of history and actually getting our hands dirty or should I say "chocolaty"!

This class was a perfect break for our kids after spending the morning walking through Brussels. From the moment we walked in the door and met Patricia and her team, we felt right at home. They were very welcoming, had a great sense of humor and engaged both kids and adults. The class as informative, fun and the chocolate we made was delicious. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking for a fun activity while in Brussels.

Elisabeth was a great host and teacher. She explained the process and all that goes into producing the Chocolates. Worth going to the class.
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Thank you so much!
Fun experience
Lindsey_C, Mar 2024
Fun activity to do together with a partner, friends, and/or family. The experience was fun and the host great and engaging. We were able to experience 3 different activities including making a chocolate bar, chocolate shapes, and truffles. It was a good amount of things to make and take home. My only suggestion would be that each person get their own tray for shape making. We had to throw some of our chocolate away because there wasn’t enough space. They didn’t advertise it but you get 20% off in their shop following the experience and that was wonderful with a very informed and helpful clerk!
