Fun and Delicious! - Went here on Friday after a snow storm derailed our plans to hike to Rainbow Mountain. The Cusco Chocolate Workshop was amazing and accommodated my family and I last minute. The class was fun, well taught and the hot chocolate and chocolates we made were delicious! I would highly recommend this class if you have a free night in Cusco.

Fun afternoon for chocolate lovers - This workshop was great fun! We made pralines and some chocolate medallions. The highlight for us was the hot chocolate, it was intense but so delicious! Luis was a great instructor, very friendly and knowledgeable. The view over San Blas was awesome too. We also appreciated the flexibility in being able to reschedule our workshop to another date due to illness. We would recommend this as a fun activity for all chocolate lovers!

Highly Recommended! - Firstly this activity is hosted at an amazing roof top bar/restaurant, with stunning city views. You can easily incorporate this activity with dinner and drinks at “Limbus Resto Bar”. They had a live DJ which added to the evening ambiance. Our workshop was hosted by Luis who was so enthusiastic about Peru, chocolate and it’s history. He shared lots of tidbits, for example when translated “Ganache” means “idiot” in french, because it was created accidentally. Luis was very patient and talked us through everything step by step. We made hot chocolate together at the end with left over ingredients which was to die for! This is a really fun and relaxed activity that started at 5pm and ended by 7pm (or 7.30pm, if the group is slightly larger). We left with loads of delicious chocolate at the end and knowing I made it just makes it that much sweeter. Overall really great value for money too.

THE BEST CHOCOLATE WORKSHOP IN CUSCO WITHOUT A DOUBT! - Without a doubt, one of the best chocolate workshops I have ever done in the world, you start thinking that you are only going to make chocolate and you do much more as friends you learn to make your own chocolate bonbons hot chocolate among other things the place where it is made The workshop is incredible, it is a restobar that has a panoramic view of the city. It lasts around two and a half hours but there is really a lack of time because you also spend a lot of time there. The guides who lead the activity are super fun and always make you feel very comfortable. They invite you to a drink at the beginning of something that is not included but they still offer it at the end you get a box full of chocolate made by yourself, it is simply incredible, plus the box has a great design and the personalized aprons they give you so you can make the workshop are amazing I would definitely do it again thank you very much for the hospitality
