For 2 hours, Elsa invites you to unlock the secrets of Bean to Bar by exploring an assortment of different chocolates.
Upon your arrival, you will receive a warm welcome from the chocolatier, who will take the time to introduce you to her workshop.
Next, delve into the fundamentals of tasting while getting initiated into the basics of the art of chocolate making. You'll rediscover the pleasures of taste through the exploration of foods and beverages designed to refine your senses, taking you on a journey from tangy to more bitter flavours.
Stimulate your sense of smell through a series of exercises based on the flavour wheel, all centred around chocolate.
Finally, you'll conclude with a grand finale: the tasting of 4 to 5 chocolates from various origins, each revealing a unique aromatic palette.

Meet Elsa, the passionate bean-to-bar chocolatier!
For six years, Elsa made her home in Ecuador, immersing herself in the world of sustainable tourism. It was there that she organised journeys along the cocoa route, and her fascination with this product truly took shape.
Upon returning to Europe, her passion for sustainable food led her to embark on a journey in the world of chocolate making. She pursued formal training at a renowned school of chocolate and confectionery. Elsa also honed her chocolate tasting skills through the International Institute of Chocolate and Cacao Tasting.
After gaining valuable experience working alongside a well-known chocolatier, she decided to share her expertise with fellow chocolate enthusiasts. Eventually, she took a bold step and opened her own café dedicated entirely to cocoa.
Elsa is a true expert in the bean-to-bar process. She sources her cocoa beans from suppliers who work directly with growers, overseeing every step of the process from roasting to cracking, and all the way through to chocolate production.
Her mission is a noble one: to elevate the work of cocoa farmers and chocolate makers alike.
Join Elsa's workshop and help restore cocoa to its rightful glory!
