Introduction
The Chocolate Museum in London is a specialist museum devoted to cocoa and chocolate, telling through exhibits and displays the story of how cocoa travelled from ancient Central America to the world and became modern chocolate. It explains the cultivation, processing and making of cocoa and shows chocolate culture from different times and regions. Visitors can usually join a chocolate-making workshop, making and tasting chocolate under guidance, an experience popular with families and children. The museum is small and can be seen in about one to two hours, and workshop sessions are limited, so booking ahead is advised. Opening hours and prices are subject to on-site notice.
