Chocolate Factory in Bruges? Make Your Own Belgian Chocolate

Many visitors look for a chocolate factory in Bruges, hoping to see how Belgian chocolate is made. At Belgian Chocola, you don’t just watch: you make it yourself. In our hands-on chocolate workshop in the historic heart of Bruges, you temper premium Belgian chocolate, fill praline moulds and take home 21 pralines and 6 mendiants made with your own hands.
Chocolate factory tour or chocolate workshop?
A factory visit or a chocolate museum tells you the story of chocolate. A workshop lets you experience it. You work with real Belgian chocolate, learn the techniques chocolatiers use and taste the result. Want both? The Choco-Story chocolate museum is also in Bruges, so you can easily combine a museum visit with our workshop on the same day.
