Highly recommend for all ages!! I visited today for my birthday for the second time and absolutely loved it. I love that guests are a mixture of all ages (as everyone loves chocolate)! Our guide was amazing (Coco) and we thoroughly enjoyed 90 mins of chocolate tasting, making and learning. Will definitely be back - a must do activity when in Edinburgh.

really lovely place! got to buy tickets for the tour on the day itself and I had no regrets at all. the tour was extremely informative and got to taste several variations of chocolate! staff were really kind and engaging as well. left really happy!

Our group made an appointment for the chocolate making experiece via Viator and were very glad that we did! We booked the afternoon and it was the perfect way to break up the day. The tour was broken up into three parts -history/lecture, the making of chocolate, and chocolate tasting. The history and lecture was great background for the next two parts. We learned about the history of chocolate, got to taste the way the Aztecs prepared chocolate, and learned about the different types of cocoa beans and chocolate around the world. We also learned about some of the larger producers of chocolate and how they make their product. In the making of portion we were led to small stainless steel workstations where we were able to make our label, choose a form and make out chocolate bar out of milk or dark chocolate. We went through how the cocoa beans were roasted and ground and then added to fats and sugar to make chocolate. The workstations were just large enough and we learned about some of the techniques of making chocolate. While our chocolate bars were cooling, we went into the tasting room. There was discussion about different tastes and levels of cacao and how it affected the flavor along with the added sugars. We were led through a number of types of chocolate. Afterwards, we could choose any of the 30-ish samples available. The tasting card and the individual chocolate tags made for some cool souvenirs. Our bars were done and came to us wrapped in cellophane and packaged with other tags we made. Overall, great experience and a couple of hours well spent if you like/love chocolate or just curious about learning One warning that they do not ship outside of the UK, so if there is something you see in the shop, get it and ship it home yourself!

What a great experience.we enjoyed learning about the cocoa and making our own chocolate bar with plenty to add. Was interesting to taste cold chocolate prepared old fashion way and also taste dark, milk and white chocolate with diferent flavour. Our favourite was the dark with scotch pine and Cadbury chocolate.

A really worthwhile and interesting experience. Kelly was brilliant with our tour, trying the different chocolates with the guided tasting session was the highlight, but we also learnt alot about its origins and varieties from different countries. Was also fun making your own chocolate to take home. Definitely recommend booking a tour if you have a spare couple of hours on a rainy day.
