Make Your Own Chocolate Experience in Balava Dalat

Truly a hidden gem tucked away from the city centre of Dalat. The workshop was around 30 minutes and I went for a horse riding session right after while waiting for the chocolate to harden in the fridge. Rio, the deputy CEO was extremely warm and helpful to us for the visit. Would recommend this activity for those contemplating.

Managed to call their workshop prior to booking to ensure they have availability slots. location is quite a distance away, the pin location might be abit off from the map with no network surrounding area. In the building itself they will provide wifi. Overall it was a nice experience making your own chocolate from the bean itself, Ms Linh was our instructor for the workshop.

easy and fun experience! you get to choose the beans, crush the beans and mix & decorate it. my session was full of kids and I was the only adult and tourist there but the staff was able to guide me regardless! was a little difficult to find the place via grab as the drop off point doesn’t lead directly to the place. just let the driver know to go down the little road :) didn’t have any difficulty booking a grab car back as well. perfect as a little side quest if you have time to spare

thank you Rio so much for the entertaining class & best is making our own unique chocolates. everyone must come to join this tour. I wish I spend more time as our driver waiting too long for us.

It was great that the class was taught in both Korean and English at the same time. It was great that we could start from grinding cacao beans into powder. It was a little disappointing that we could only make chocolate decorations with carriages and simple sprinkles. After about an hour of class, it took about 30 minutes for the chocolate to harden. While waiting, you can do things like ride a bike, but this costs an additional fee. It would be good if there was a system that gave discounts on other experience fees to those who participated in making chocolate. The pizza at the restaurant next door was sold out so we couldn't eat, but we had Bolognese and carbonara spaghetti, which weren't very tasty for the price to Korean taste. The chocolate making experience itself was okay, but the rest of it was a little disappointing.

It was my first time making chocolate from beans and it was fun.
