Chocolate Factory in Milan
In the heart of Milan, within the walls of an unexpected 18th-century building, you are invited to explore the magic of chocolate like never before.
Here, tradition meets creativity in a real artisan chocolate factory — a place where the ancient rituals of cacao transformation unfold before your eyes, just as they have for centuries.
Have you ever wondered where chocolate really begins?
Meet the cacao pod — the vibrant, golden-red fruit that guards the precious cocoa beans within.
Its name comes from Brazil, and just like a treasure chest protects the delicate beans that, through skill and passion, will one day become the chocolate we love.
