The American Chocolate Factory has been serving their smooth and rich chocolates to tourists and island residents, since 2006. American Chocolate Factory prides itself in being the very first large machinery chocolate factory on the island.
To craft their chocolates, they use high quality raw materials – blending cocoa butter, cocoa powder, milk powder, and cane sugar. The grinding of all ingredients can take up to 24 hours. This transforms the ingredients into a smooth, velvety liquid, which is used to make the fresh chocolates. You can enjoy each bite, knowing that you are getting high quality chocolates with no chemicals, pesticides, preservatives, or artificial substances.
In June 2019, the American Chocolate Factory opened their retail shop where customers can enjoy the experience of making their own chocolate. The DIY chocolate class includes chocolate making, a behind-the-scenes tour of the factory, a drink, and a complimentary kid’s apron.
If you are on the island, experience a DIY chocolate making class and don’t forget to take some chocolates back home with you for family and friends!
