The kids and adults in our group enjoyed this activity, but the kids definitely enjoyed it more. It would have been nice to get more local Edinburgh/Scotland chocolate history instead of only talking about the generic chocolate making process. Our guide was nice but not very knowledgeable. She wasn’t able to answer most of the questions posed.

This was a great experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and really informative about the process of making chocolate from the harvesting to the chocolatier. I would highly recommend this.

Such a fun experience learning how to make chocolate and the process that the cocoa bean goes through. Our tour guide was fabulous as well.

We've learnt a lot and it was so funny to create our own chocolate. The testing activity was also very funny
