Crie Sua Própria Experiência com Chocolate em Balava Dalat

Had a great time with Linh at the Balava Chocolate Making Experience! Linh was patient and concise when explaining the history and process of chocolate making. She guided us through the different types of cocoa beans, ingredients and techniques used to make chocolate. We started by peeling, crushing and grinding the cocoa beans before adding cocoa oil and mixing everything together. We then got to design our own chocolates using matcha white chocolate and dried mango, which was really fun! The whole process took around 30–40 minutes, after which we had free time to explore the area and chocolate shop while waiting for our chocolates to set. The only downsides are that the chocolate shop only accepts cash, and the location is quite remote and far from the city. I would recommend arranging a private driver or asking your Grab driver to wait for you, as many are willing to do so. Overall, a fun and hands-on experience that I would recommend for chocolate lovers!

location: located at remote mountain area so you can choose for Balava to arrange transportation for you. bit far if you are staying around central area like us. honestly its quite a good price. | experience: good experience to spend quality time with the family | equipment: they will set up everything for you | instructor: instructor mentioned she does speak english very fluently but honestly we understood everything and her english is fine | safety: everything’s fine honestly. nothing major to note.

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.

fun experience, learning about cacao history and the chocolate making process. you make your own fresh chocolate from scratch and decorate however you like, then freeze about 15mins.

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! The best part was making our own unique chocolates. Everyone must come and join this tour. I wish I could have spent more time, as our driver was waiting too long for us.

It was great that the class was conducted simultaneously in both Korean and English. It was also good to be able to experience the process from grinding cocoa beans into powder. It was a bit disappointing that chocolate decorations could only be made with matcha and simple sprinkles. After about an hour of class, it takes another 30 minutes for the chocolate to set. While waiting, you can go cycling, but there's an additional charge for that. It would be nice if there was a system to offer discounts on other activities for those who participate in the chocolate making experience. The pizza at the accompanying restaurant was sold out, so we couldn't eat it. We had Bolognese and Carbonara spaghetti, but for Korean tastes, the flavor wasn't great considering the price. The chocolate making experience itself was good, but the other aspects were a bit disappointing.

I made chocolate from scratch for the first time. It was fun.
