Choco Museo, Antigua, Guatemala

One thing about going on a major vacation is that you often have more pictures than you know what to do with. The best blog post is to gather and collect the photos and post immediately, but I know few people who really do that. Most bloggers I know are actually posting weeks, if not months after the fact. The fun part of that however is when you do it later you can relive the memories. Such is the case with the Choco Museo

The sign that lets you know you arrived.

Chocolate starts from the Cacao tree and the Cacao tree finds it’s origins in Central America. As the name implies the Choco Museo is a museum dedicated to chocolate. Talk about dropping in on the promised land!!

The museum is basically a store and cafe, but it does have an interesting mix in that it offers a brief history of chocolate and gives workshops on the art of chocolate making.  For about $20 dollars AJ and Denise did a chocolate making class in which they learned all the steps in which to make chocolate. I (John) instead opted for the sit in the cafe experience, which consisted of me drinking several versions of hot chocolate and tasting AJ and Denise’s chocolate once they were finished.
