Delicious and Informative! - This was a highlight of our time in Ghent. Chocolade Ambassade is run by a lovely young couple who are serious about high quality chocolate and sharing their knowledge with others. We enjoyed a wide assortment of chocolate and chocolate-based products, including things that are made with the byproducts of the chocolate making process. We learned so much!

Excellent, Educational Tasting - We had an amazing time learning about chocolate! Dorinne (sp?) was an excellent instructor…Uber knowledgeable and passionate about chocolate! The instructional area was comfortable and cozy. We tasted multiple chocolates…and different elements of the cacao processing stages. We also appreciated Dorinne and her partner’s (Leo) approach to supporting the smaller business in the craft. Highly recommend this experience!

A Must when in Ghent, Belgium - Our first day in Ghent started with our private tasting with Dorien in their beautiful store. It was one of our best experiences in Ghent. We learned so much about chocolate and the process of making it. It was informative, interesting and fun as well as delicious. She opened my eyes and palate to unique flavors paired with the chocolates and left me wanting more artisanal Belgium chocolate.

More than just tasting s few truffles - So interesting to hear and taste so much about chocolate!! We loved the education in one of our favorite subjects. Got to taste chocolate in multiple forms as well as a wonderful selection of beautiful bonbons. Dorian was so kind and very responsive to our tastes. Well worth the time and price.

Fantastic chocolate tasting experience - This was a wonderful experience with Dorien. She spent an unhurried 2 hours sharing with us the world of chocolate in her adorable shop in Ghent. We learned so much (about bean-to-bar chocolatiers versus traditional chocolatiers, growers, industry standards, etc) and tasted some excellent chocolate and drink pairings. You will get plenty of chocolate! There are many, many chocolate shops in Belgium and differentiating which ones are special is hard as a visitor. After our chocolate tasting at Chocolat Ambassade (her shop), we can definitely appreciate the differences more! This is a great opportunity to learn from a lovely small business owner. If you're having trouble finding her, look for the shop by name: Chocolat Ambassade.
