Great workshop and excellent tour

Published on Jan, 2025

I underestimated this place. Parking is away from building -keep that in mind if you are running late for workshops. We had a chocolate workshop where we got to flavour our chocolate, make Christmas trees and then decorate them. It was informative and really fun. You get to eat chocolate and then the chocolate that you also made. You also get to keep the apron. The tour itself blew me away. It was original and they made it interesting and it was very educating. Even my teens liked it! You get to have more chocolate. My teens were chocolated out! That says a lot. Great shop with lots of chocolate and little coffee shop overlooking the alps. I highly recommend this tour, they did a great job.

Some tips for the visit

Published on Nov, 2024

If you want to book a chocolate workshop, book when you see one that fits your schedule. They sell out fast. When you get to the room where you can try nuts, cocoa etc, don’t eat too much. Those nuts will fill you up and you won’t have any space left for chocolate to try. We visited the factory in summer and there were flies in the chocolate tasting room, something to keep in mind. Also, being wet hand wipes, chocolate is soft due to heat in the room and will leave marks on your hands. There is a hand sanitizer in the room, but it doesn’t really clean your hands. Interesting gift shop, but we bought Cailler chocolates at a Coop supermarket. The factory is 10 minutes away by car from the Gruyère Cheese house, so you can combine both places in one day. It’s not a walking distance.

Chocolate heaven

Published on Oct, 2024

Fans of chocolate absolutely should not miss this factory tour. It’s fun, informative, and the best part of all is the opportunity to sample some of the incredible chocolates (and then buy them in the gift shop, with prices better than anywhere else). It’s a popular place (for good reason) so plan on prebooking your visit. There is a restaurant/cafe where you can enjoy more chocolate if you do have to wait a bit, too. We made a day of it with a morning visit to the cheese factory, lunch in Gruyère, then this stop, which turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. Do not miss it!

Absolute must visit

Published on Oct, 2024

Absolute must visit! Fun and interactive museum experience. The chocolate workshop was amazing and I really recommend to this extra treat to everyone.

Great Tour and Tastings Too

Published on Sep, 2024

Excellent tour. These guys know what they are doing! You go on a tour that is a series of events that explains the history of chocolate, how they make it, etc... all done in an interesting and entertaining manner. This will keep everyone's attention, young and old. Toward the end they offer you samples. Very professional. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
