About this experience
Beverly Hills is synonymous with luxury and indulgence – and its chocolate scene is no exception. On this self-guided audio tour, you’ll discover craft chocolates with flavors, textures, and infusions that transform the ordinary into extraordinary. From traditional European techniques to innovative California creations, you’ll experience chocolate in its most elevated forms while exploring the iconic streets and landmarks that make Beverly Hills famous.
You’ll stroll through manicured gardens and past the elegant city hall with its Spanish Revival architecture and golden cupola. Along the way, you’ll learn about chocolate’s 3,000-year journey from Olmec, Mayan, and Aztec rituals, and find out how small family farms still produce 90 percents of the world’s cocoa.
I’ll share the story of a Brazilian immigrant who brought Swiss chocolate expertise to Beverly Hills, and you’ll taste the difference between pralines, truffles, and bonbons created by world-renowned chocolatiers.
