This is a great little museum to visit especially if you love chocolate. We did a chocolate and wine/cava pairing. We ended up being the only people in the tasting so it was fun to learn about the chocolate while having some yummy wine. The chocolate sculptures were near too. This is a pretty quick stop if you aren't doing the tasting.

5 stars

the museum offers amazing exhibits featuring realistic sculptures of pop culture icons, but made entirely out of chocolate and other edible materials. if you’re with a group, they also offer baking and candy making classes. great way to spend an afternoon

The ticket is a small chocolate bar, very cool. You enter and in an unguided unsupervised tour. The tour shows the history of cocoa processing and chocolate, with some videos and some tools. There are also chocolate made statuettes. It was a nice visit, 30 minutes.
