After that, you will watch an interesting video explaining how the processing techniques of cocoa has changed through time.
In particular, you will hear the story of the Bacio Perugina , the famous chocolate containing love messages and aphorisms by popular writers and poets. But it does not end here: you can taste a fresh made one!
