San Jose del Cabo: My love for chocolate

Guided by expert chocolatiers, you'll start by roasting cacao beans over an open flame, just as the Aztecs and Mayans did centuries ago. Feel the warmth and inhale the intoxicating aroma as the beans crackle and pop. Next, you'll grind the roasted beans on a stone metate, using traditional tools to transform them into a silky, rich paste. From there, delve into the Spanish influence on chocolate-making. Learn how European techniques and ingredients, such as sugar and milk, transformed chocolate into the creamy, decadent treat we know today. Under the guidance of our chocolatiers, you'll blend spices, sweeteners, and other ingredients to craft your own unique chocolate creations. Whether you're a chocolate connoisseur or simply a lover of sweet experiences, this workshop offers a hands-on, sensory adventure that connects you to the deep traditions and artistry of Mexican and Spanish chocolate-making.
