Bitter! Chocolate and More Happiness ice cream – a journey of tastes, smells and discoveries for students and families!

ABOUT US

We invite children and students to exciting masterclasses and excursions in the “Bitter “chocolate workshop, where they can discover the world of cocoa through smell, taste and exploration! We offer a rich and wide range of tastings and masterclasses for children and young people – from exploring the finest chocolate flavours to creating your own chocolate. During classroom excursions, pupils will learn about the chocolate-making process from cocoa bean to chocolate bar and experiment with decorating their own chocolate bar.
