What you can expect

Join a chocolate-making workshop in Santa Barbara. Venture into El Mercado to a chocolate shop hidden in a corner, halfway underground. Upon entering, hang your belongings, put on an apron, and make your way to the factory area.

Find a variety of chocolate bar moulds, a choice of 30 inclusions, and 3 chocolates – 60% dark, oat milk, and a flavoured white (strawberry, mango, and lemon flavours). After designing your chocolate bar, pick the size of your wooden box and head over to The Art Bar to further your creativity.

Allow the chocolate to harden while you add personal touches to the box. Paint, stain, stencil, stamp, and detail your wooden boxes with stickers, transfers, and washi tape to your heart's desire.

Finish off by removing the chocolate from its mould, wrapping it in foil or biodegradable cello bags, and putting it in its newly created wooden box.
