What you'll do
Looking for unique team building activities in Melbourne? Join craft chocolate maker, certified chocolate taster, and international awards judge Finn Doyle (aka Cacao About Town) for a journey into the flavourful world of chocolate.
In this introductory workshop, we'll explore the many flavours of cacao by learning how to taste chocolate from several local bean-to-bar makers. Through each of these samples, we'll look at the history of cacao and how it's transformed from a tropical fruit to the chocolate we love, as well as the ethical issues facing the industry today.
This fun and mindful experience will leave you eager for more of Melbourne's finest chocolate - don't worry, you'll be given the tools to keep tasting at home...
Perfect for end of year work events, Christmas party ideas or simply fun things to do in Melbourne, come along to our chocolate tasting experience today!

Your host
It started as a mission to find the best hot chocolate in the world.
This led to an introduction to craft chocolate (shout out to Nuance Chocolate). Pretty soon, I was hooked on bean-to-bar, seeking out every chocolate maker I could find, eager to learn, to taste, to share…
I knew I had to do something with all these thoughts and feelings about craft chocolate. In the wild Icelandic winter (excited for a visit to omNom Chocolate) I decided to start Cacao About Town, an Instagram blog of chocolate tastings, travel spots and fun pairings.
A few years (and a few Chocolate Tasting Certifications) later, and that blog has become a series of Chocolate Tasting workshops, Corporate Tasting Experiences, and a Chocolate & Cacao Consultancy service.
Bean-to-bar chocolate is an incredibly exciting movement, built on fundamental principles of respect for farmers, the environment and fine flavour. My aim is to share my passion for ethically-sourced, sustainably-produced chocolate and cacao with you, and your friends, and the person next to you on the train, and anyone else who wants to learn about the wonderful world of craft chocolate.
