Imagine: brown, white, mint and caramel cream, all packed in tasty chocolate. Add some strawberries for the flavour. But waht if you can make a tour in a chocolate factory and maybe create your own recipe.
Everyone knows by now that Switzerland and Belgium hold proverbial gold medals in chocolate making. And any chocolate-eater worth their weight in… well, chocolate, has likely graduated from the days of Hershey’s and Cadbury to a smaller-batch, fair trade, organic chocolatier by now. But how many serious choco-lovers have ventured to factories across the globe for tours, lessons in cacao history, and all-important taste-tests?
Well, the good news is that not all the worthwhile tours are in Europe — there are U.S. based factories, too, that churn out rich, bitter, fantasy-inducing chocolates and they give just as fascinating tours. Theo’s Chocolates in Seattle and Mast Brothers in Brooklyn, for example, are leaders of organic, mouth-watering chocolate producing in the U.S. and they open their doors to curious (read: desperate) visitors on a regular basis.
The Daily Meal made a list of 10 chocolate factories around the world.
