Paris: Chocolate Workshop (45 Mins) At Choco-story

Wonderful experience, the meusuem is great and the chocolate is very good. The workshop is great experience with children

This was a waste of time and money. 1. This was stated as offered in English but I found that the French that was spoken before the English translation seemed much more thorough than what was relayed in English. Instructions were not clear and the other person in my party messed up their chocolate creation because of this. 2. Our chocolate "chef", Chaid? Chare? Chald? Chair? Who knows? She was terrible. She was not helpful in any way whatsoever and did not seem to care about having a fun experience at all. She seemed more interested in getting the whole thing over with so she could go hang out with her friends at the check in desk. 3. There were 10 people in our session (our party included). There were only 2 vats of chocolate (1 milk & 1 dark) that we all had to share and maneuver around despite there being an entire room that we could have been spread out w/ multiple vats available. I'm not sure if this was just part and parcel for the workshop or she was just being lazy and not wanting to clean extra. 4. When the other person in my party messed up their chocolate creation, there was no help from our chocolate chef to find a solution. Instead, chocolate chef chair/chare/chauld moved onto the next activity. Again, did not care at all if we were having a good experience or not. 5. This is not really making chocolate so much as it is just dipping stuff in chocolate. Did not learn a single thing. 6. The toppings weren't spaced out or proportioned out for the number of people in the workshop. It was also not clear what all the toppings were since again, our chocolate chef chair/chare/chauld rushed through the English explanation and did not care when we asked. Overall, don't waste your time or money.

This was very rushed and honestly could be done so much better. This is less about chocolate making and more making a few treats. Would recommend for people with kids who are looking for something easy to do. Chef was very nice and switched back and forth between English and French. Would like to do again only if they made it a longer class teaching more skills.

Amazing and welcoming staff. Chef was perfect and chocolate making fun. Also we enjoyed the museum of chocolate

it is almost like doing fondue. dip a marshmallow, a chocolate, a orange peel and a small chocolate bar. The museum was lacking. I have been to better and The lady leading the class wasn't engaging. Was disappointed. Sorry.

My son and husband really enjoyed this activity and got lots of chocolate and an apron as souvenirs!

Fun and delightful activity in the heart of Paris , we left with the most delicious chocolates and memories . Highly recommend especially for families with kids looking for some indoor , magical and memorable experiences in Paris .

Took my 9 year old daughter here and she absolutely loved it. You get to make a series of different chocolates (dipping marshmallows, chocolate bars, etc). It’s a great kids activity in Paris.

This was a great thing to do for me and my daughter! It was one of her favorite things we did while in Paris and the chocolate is delicious. I highly recommend and its only 45 min.

don’t expect too much from this, it’s a nice relaxing activity and the chocolate bars were fun to make but if you’re expecting to learn how to make chocolate (tempering etc) you’re not. It suited our family age 10 and teenager on a hot day to get out of the midday sun and we had tasty treats for the rest of the holiday. the chef didn’t make much of an effort at all but was friendly. I think they could do more with this workshop- they seem to have all the equipment and chocolate, it could be better without much investment or effort. We liked it though and the virtual tasting was kind of cool

So fun!! 10/10 recommend to do something fun like this. Made great memories! The chef was so nice and the chocolate was delicious!

Do not visit this museum and chocolate workshop! The person leading the workshop manhandled my seven-year-old daughter. He aggressively grabbed her and yanked her around when she wasn't sitting on the stool as he wanted. We were in shock and, had we had our wits about us, would have called the police immediately. When we told him to keep his hands off our child, he was dismissive and rude, as was the entire museum staff. Consider this a warning. DO NOT BRING KIDS HERE!

The location was nice. The entry staff was great. The chocolate part of the experience was not that great. The lady was rude, pushy, and gave the kids a stare when they made a mess (even though it’s advertised for them). The toppings weren’t great and they were not spaced out proportionally for everyone to have access to them. You had to go around constantly to get the chocolate or toppings. The lady was very pushy to get it over it which I didn’t like.

This was more a chocolate dipping than chocolate making class. There was so explanation on how chocolate is made etc. Not at all what we expected. Our kids liked it though

This is an experience I would skip because of the person who was guiding us. The workshop chef was rude and very unprofessional. We are adults with children and is treating us unkindly. He was annoyed from the start and insulting in his commentary. I would not recommend this at all to anyone. There were others in the experience with us who also felt his negativity. We are on vacation, paying for an experience so the expectation is to have fun with someone who wants to be part of our experience.

Great experience and really well priced. Get to take lots of lovely chocs home too. Easy to get there by metro - just opposite Bonne Nouvelle station.

Our son enjoyed it that is why I’m giving it 4 stars. Like some other people said, this is more of dipping chocolate instead of making chocolate. My husband was frustrated because our chef provided more instruction and details to the people who spoke French than those that spoke English. Wish there had been more toppings to choose from. I would not do this tour again.

Excellent experience. The museum was interesting. The workshop was fun. The communication from Viator was poor. We waited outside until 10 minutes after our allotted time but no guide appeared. We made our way into the venue and we missed our slot. When you arrive just go straight in!

The workshop was great. We had a wonderful time. It was great for all ages over their minimum age of 6. My 6year old, 15 year old and 20 year old all loved it. (I didn’t realize my 2 year old wouldn’t be allowed in the room at all). We made covered marshmallows on a stick, nuggets and orange dipped sticks as well as white, milk and dark chocolate bars. Highly recommend.

It wasn’t what we expected.. felt like we were just on an assembly line with no personal experience or attention at all

Enjoyed the chocolate story. Also enjoyed the experience dipping chocolate and make chocolate bars and the chocolate was amazing!

We began the workshop by dipping marshmallows, orange slices and chocolate squares into the pots of melted chocolate after the chocolatier demonstrated how to do so. Then he demonstrated how to make the chocolate bars and how to make a swirl. It would have been better if we started with the making of the chocolate bars as they needed time to set properly. As they would have been setting, then we could have dipped our other treats into the chocolate pots as they required only 30 seconds to set. Also, the chocolatier did not have the patience required to work with children. My family did not have problems, but he (the chocolatier) was very impatient with others. The scavenger hunt is not kid-friendly at all! They definitely need to revamp that and keep it to one simple sheet as opposed to a multi-page booklet whereby the answers were very difficult for the kids to find. Overall, we did have fun and enjoyed eating what we made!

A lovely workshop to take a break from lots if walking round Paris. More of a decorate your chocolate than make the chocolate, but fun all the same and the chocolate is lovely. The museum is also very interesting with some amazing models.

We had the best time with Stephan and the chocolate decorating. The treats are tasty and he was super patient.

Fair experience, and expensive for what you got. And there were very minimal choices to choose from to add to your chocolate. Ie sprinkles, different nuts!

Avoid this. It's 45 minutes of dipping things in chocolate. Totally not worth the $45. With so many things to do around Paris, don't waste your time here.

Title is misleading. You don’t get to make any chocolates. You basically dip things like marshmallows and orange candy and fudge squares in liquid chocolate. Then you squeeze molten chocolate into molds to make chocolate bars. Save your money. Do something else with your time in Paris. Definitely not worth $220 for 5 people. We were a small group of people ages 17 - 76 and would definitely not do it again.

Very bad experinece for us If you’re 5 minutes late, you’re not allowed in, even though we paid. Pathetic

My son wasn’t empressed with experience it was more like a “let’s dip Things in chocolate.” The guy assisting was very nice and spoke French and English.. the woman at the reception also spoke English but we found she catered more to those who spoke French. My son saw her giving attention to other children giving out chocolate lollipops offering hot chocolate drinks and being quite kind to some but when he spoke to her she was quite rude. It was obvious she dislike Americans!! Americans beware!!! When I asked for her name she refused to give and told me my son interrupted her. I was by his side she honestly just couldn’t care less about us.. we Left feeling frustrated and could feel her energy as we left.. my son said, “mom that woman is still Staring at us.. he felt uncomfortable and quite honestly so did I!

Very good class if visiting Paris with young kids. Our son really enjoyed the chocolate making and was good length of time for his age. Definitely would recommend plus you get yo take yhe chocolate home with you to enjoy.

The Chef was wonderful, so patient. The experience was so much fun and we learned so much. The museum was very interesting as well

The chocolate is already melted all you do is dip marshmallows oranges and a piece of chocolate Then make your bar by adding melted chocolate to it I’d say more for kids than adults Don’t expect a lot

Very nice experience, staff are great and accomodating. Workshop is fun and quick, dont expect to learn chocolate making from scratch, it more about creative fun decorating chocolates, but you might pick up a couple of interesting facts and learn a few things.

Fun experience to do while in Paris. The learning the history of chocolate as well as getting to make your own candy.

We booked the workshop as part of our 30th wedding anniversary. It was a great thing to do, we made yummy chocolate bars and got to keep the moulds so that we could try it at home. Thank you

The chocolatier was fun and helpful. It was a fun experience and will take friends to it when I go back.

It was a very pleasant experience. Small group (we were just 5) and chef was willing to answer all questions. Basic decoration class (just dip marshmallows and other candies into chocolate) and then explore your creative side by decorating it. Chef shared some techniques. Quick but nice experience!

I loved the make your own chocolate experience! The chocolatier is very knowledgeable and it's extremely fun. After all the play you get to keep your creations (Yum)!

We had a great time making chocolate and this was a welcome break from touring other museums for our teenage son. We also walked home with lots of goodies made by us and the our chocolatier. We didn't spend much time in the museum but did catch the chocolate-making demonstration prior to our class starting.

I do not recommend it; we felt very uncomfortable because the chef does not like his job. He seemed annoyed from start to finish and very impatient, even though we all followed his instructions. The workshop is about dipping things in chocolate, not about 'making chocolate.' Moreover, it is extremely expensive for what it is. Expensive, disappointing, and uncomfortable. The museum has some interest, but I also found it to be expensive. The bathroom where they tell you to wash your hands before the workshop was a disaster, dirty, under construction, with items stored... in short, do not go.

Interesting museum visit but a lot to read. Limited tasting (dispensers of pellets). Nice chocolate workshop but infective animator.

Very nice chocolate workshop! It was fun and fun to do!

A great visit, extremely pleasant staff, absolutely friendly and accessible chocolate makers, it's simple at the end we would like to invite them to dinner!!! Thank you to the whole team and good and long continuation!!!

Very disappointed!!! Despising staff and Dale from the workshop not patient. Plus the prices are too high To avoid I advise against

We did the workshop in addition to the visit and it was really seen great, a treat for the eyes, taste buds and also nose, in short a beautiful discovery

We participated in a one-hour chocolate making activity followed by a self-guided tour of the chocolate museum. We had a great time, as a group, original and funny. We recommend this experience for a Parisian stay

Great workshop Stephane the chocolatier was very pleasant, we were a group of 18 with around ten children and all the children were delighted. They left with their chocolate work in hand. The adults were happy too.

Rather disappointed by the facilitator who delivers his instructions in French and English like an automaton. You can feel that he is tired of repeating the same speech several times a day. Not very helpful either with the young children a little awkward. The video of the 3 chefs chocolatiers is more for adults because too much technical jargon Nevertheless the visit pleased my grandchildren.

Disappointing. The workshop consists of introducing into chocolate a couple of clouds, a couple of orange slices and a couple of chocolates. Then fill a mold with different types of chocolate.....all this while the chef, who is not characterized by his sympathy and who looks to spare your life, rectifies you continuously if you do not do what he tells you.....the feeling is that you have thrown the money in the trash....The museum for its part is fine to go with children, the reception boy, very friendly, gives them a little book, where they stick stick stickers to be entertained and then gives them a chocolate lollipop, very friendly.
