Barcelona Chocolate Tour

 

It is a long tradition in Catalonia to have desserts as the beginning for a great talk, as the best companion for a coffee, or just the best snack.
Barcelona, Spain’s chocolate-making capital, is home to dozens of great chocolate shops, a museum, a unique restaurant for those with a sweet tooth and the Salón del Chocolate, a new annual event to be launched in November 2005.

The best time to visit is in the run-up to Easter, when pâtisserie and chocolate shop windows are decorated with monas, or chocolate sculptures.
If one had to pinpoint where modern Spanish chocolate-making began, it would be in Barcelona, where pâtissier Antoni Escribà pioneered new approaches between the 1950s and 1990s.

We offer you the opportunity to discover the best-kept passion of our country, the desserts. During the day you will visit the best places in the city dedicated to sweets, cakes and pastries, including a tasting dinner in the first restaurant of desserts in Spain.
