Where is the Best Chocolate Factory Near Melbourne?
Located at 35 Old Healesville Road, corner of Melba Highway in Yarra Glen, Yarra Valley Chocolaterie is Melbourne’s best chocolate factory that lets you indulge in the sweetness of Aussie hospitality. Plus, it only takes an hour of scenic drive from Melbourne’s central business district and is far better than any store or chocolate factory in Melbourne.
The Chocolate Factory That Lets You Sample For Free!
You can enjoy free samples of their handcrafted sweet creations. A wide range of selections of their couverture chocolates lets you indulge in the rich and intense flavour. Glossy, smooth, and creamy chocolate bars melting in your mouth give you a distinct sensation that makes you want more. And they have more than 250 different varieties of chocolate products in their showroom exclusively for you to choose from. Truffles, pastilles, chocolate bars, rocky road, macaroons, you name it. Their Great Wall of Chocolate features 34 different varieties of chocolate. As you sample their sweets, you can also watch their Belgian and French chocolatiers in action, handcrafting and packaging their chocolate creations. Many of their products use native ingredients and indigenous packing materials and arts. Also, their ice cream’s ingredients and seasonal fruits are locally sourced.
Yarra Valley Chocolate Factory Cafe Serving Everything Chocolate and more
You can order breakfast or light lunch at the Yarra Valley chocolate factory cafe. Their menu features local produce.
