Terrace experience
Sit back, relax and enjoy…
A mini tasting featuring the best from our different chocolatiers on one plate, allowing you to discover your favourite style of Belgian chocolate. Pair this tasting with an indulgent hot chocolate made from one of our 70% single origin chocolates for the ultimate treat. Or, if the Belgian sun finally decides to stop playing hide-and-seek, try one of our refreshing cacao(fruit) drinks- a playful twist on classic recipes. To finish your sweet adventure, we suggest our two ice cream flavours “1635” (chocolate) & “Forbidden Fruit” (cacao fruit): the result of a wonderful collaboration with BAS ICE CREAM, our favourite ice cream shop in town.

Private tasting experience
During this 2-hour private tasting we walk you through the secrets of Belgian chocolate: why is it world-renowned, who are the chocolate makers, how is it made, sustainability, trends… By trying different chocolates & cacao you will discover how diverse Belgian artisanal chocolate is. At the end of this interactive experience, you will be a true connoisseur!
– A fully private and personal experience: one of the two founders of the Chocolade Ambassade personally leads the tasting, fully committed to your group.
– Different chocolate makers in one place: with so many chocolate shops in Belgium, it can be difficult & time-consuming to find the right quality. During this tasting you will try chocolate of different top chocolatiers, from all over Belgium: an easy way to discover which style of chocolate fits you best.
– 3 activities in one: as you will learn a ton of facts about Belgian chocolate & cacao, this tasting is the perfect alternative (or addition) to visiting a chocolate museum. Afterwards, there is also an opportunity to do some chocolate shopping if you wish to do so.
– In the heart of Ghent: the Chocolade Ambassade is located in the historic centre of Ghent, around the corner of the Gravensteen castle & a 5-min walk from Graslei & Korenlei. This means the tasting can be easily combined with a day of sightseeing.
