    Feel like Charlie in the chocolate factory and experience a unique team building adventure with Malou, an experienced chocolate maker.

    Malou will begin by leading your team through an engaging introduction to the chocolate making process. You will learn how cocoa beans are grown, harvested and transformed into delicious chocolate bars. Throughout the introduction you and your colleagues will have the opportunity to taste different ingredients and immerse yourself in the flavours and history of cocoa. This is also a moment to reflect on socially responsible practices as you discover the sustainable and ethical way in which the cocoa of Wild Child Cacao is produced.

    After the introduction, it's time to roll up your sleeves and work together to make your own unique chocolate bars. Using the factory's machinery, your team will apply the techniques you have learned. 

    At the end of the session, you will leave with your very own handmade chocolate bars and - of course - sweet memories of an amazing workshop.

    Chocolate Makers

    Wild Child Cacao was founded by Malou & Eva in the heart of Amsterdam.

    Malou, one-half of this dynamic duo, is the craft chocolate maker. Her journey began unexpectedly in Costa Rica, where she found herself picking up a cacao fruit from the roadside. A friend turned these beans into chocolate, sparking her curiosity and paving the way for her love affair with cacao.

    Determined to understand cacao from bean to cup, she delved deep into the world of cacao. Her scientific background led her to cacao conferences, research on sustainable cacao practices, and even a cacao bean grading course. She experimented with beans from around the world, but her heart settled on the organic beans from the Dominican Republic, perfect for crafting a ceremonial-grade cacao.

    The heart of Wild Child Cacao lies in the Dominican Republic, sourced from the Öko-Caribe organic farmers' cooperative. The farmers receive extensive support, and their meticulous cacao selection and fermentation create a rich, full-bodied flavour.

    In 2022, Malou visited the Dominican Republic to learn about the fermentation process and connect with the locals, even planting cacao trees. This commitment to understanding their cacao at its source ensures a truly exceptional product.

    Join Eva for a captivating tour-workshop where she shares her extensive knowledge of cacao, while Malou conducts the chocolate-making and cacao-making workshops, including a tour. Wild Child Cacao focuses on crafting chocolate and 100% pure cacao, offering a unique and flavourful experience you won't find anywhere else.
