An afternoon of fun and delicious chocolate - My two friends and I took the candy making class before heading to the airport. It was the perfect ending to an amazing trip. The staff was very friendly and the class was informative. We all got to create our own Goo Goo chocolate. It was a lot of fun and the candy was delicious. I would definitely recommend this class.

Fun but pricey! - Fun short excursion for anyone who likes chocolate. Tours very expensive in my opinion. We happened upon a tour that was watching part of the chocolate making process and we were able to watch with them and listen to the tour guide for couple minutes. Kiosk to design your own looks like fun but plenty of options off the shelf instead for a little less money. Truffle was perfect and delicious -$4 for one piece. But it was a mini piece of art too! Happened to see the boxed clusters, which is what you design, at the airport for only $7 versus $12 off the shelf in store or $16 if you create your own. Possible the airport version is smaller? Can’t tell. But for a gift it’s just right.
