Great chocolate class - It was very informative and my hubby and I really enjoyed the class. It doesn’t hurt that you leave with what you created which is nice. If you want a short activity but interesting one, I recommend it.

The type of sweeth tooth you want - this was my second time taking a class. My first class was around Christmas and we prepared fish. The chocolate experience was nice. We made chocolate balls that were able to use for hot chocolate and we were able to make chocolate candy. I enjoyed my time and the class was fun.

Chocolatey fun - This was one of our favorite experiences on this trip! The class is intimate (we had 8 people in our class), fun, and informative. You make cacao balls for hot chocolate and 8 chocolate bars to keep, and learn how to temper chocolate to make them. Highly recommend!!

3 chocolate loving sisters - We were a group of 3 sisters in our 50’s. We truly loved this experience! The chocolate we made together is delicious. We had gone through a class about chocolate on Kauai last year, but this was our first time to actually make chocolate. It was a little challenging and used a good amount of upper body strength to crush the cacao beans and then manually grind them. Then tempering the chocolate required more use of the upper body, but we managed to get it all done. It was really rewarding to make the raw chocolate balls that will become hot cocoa; and to pour the chocolate into molds and then pop out the delectable chocolate bars. Felt a bit like Lucy Ricardo in the chef’s hat, but in a fun way. This was one of, if not the most favorite activity we did while in the DR.

Chocolate history here in Punta Cana - Both Anthony’s were great! Felix really made a great sale. We love our chocolate cigars and variety packs we smoke immediate upon back to resort. Loved the whole experience and my wife just loved participating which unusual she loved the people the chocolate history and variety of beans. Do this and shop for souvenirs much better price than resort.

Great time! - We had a great time! Felix taught us about the history of chocolate first with some opportunities to taste then we went to the back kitchen to make chocolate bars and candies. Overall enjoyed ourselves! The gift shop is nice as well

WHO DOESN'T LOVE CHOCOLATE!! - The class was something different for an excursion. Was really hard to hear the guy talking. The guy talked way to much and didn't concentrate on all the couples. Two couples had to have the chocolate reheated to be able to make the chocolate bars. The class lists for an hour but we were there several. They have a mini market on site so plan to do a bit of shopping before or after the class.
