Chocolate Museum!

Sunday, February 12th, I went to a chocolate museum with a few girls from the program. It was called Choco-Story: Le Musee Gourmand du Chocolat. It was super cool! At the end, we saw a demonstration where they showed us how they get filling in chocolate shapes! Afterwards I bought a bag of chocolate/caramel chocolate disks which are delicious! The museum took us through the history of chocolate, but I'll let the pictures tell the story.

The front desk was giving out free samples of chocolate... We're all smiling with our mouths shut because we had chocolate in our mouths :)


Mayan Cocoa Goddess


The thingamabob they used to crush cocoa beans with, there's a fun story about it in the picture below

I really hope you can read this because I find this terribly funny

This is also funny and reminds me a little bit of the priest in the movie Chocolate.

ROCK CANDY!

For some reason, the museum thought it would be a good idea to do little leggo scenes depicting different stories they talked about

"If you are not well and have not slept, chocolate will revive you"


Some old fashion hot chocolate cups

This was my favorite

Lots of fun chocolate molds: see the pig!?
SANTA

I just love this old chocolate add.

BAM! Chocolate DOES NOT cause cavities!



This is the room the demonstration was in
