About Us
Humble Beginnings
We’ve been crafting chocolate in the Central Drakensberg since 2009.
From handmaking chocolate to becoming a destination venue not to be missed. We are now a Chocolate Factory, Chocolate Shop, Restaurant and Coffee Roastery.

Each one of us contributes to the magic, it’s all the small things that make our customers smile.

Free tasting, was very informative. Friendly service. The coffee has a real earthy taste. Best sugar free chocolates I've tasted. With every coffee they serve coffee beans coated in dark chocolate to elevate the coffee's taste.
