Barcelona · DESSERT TOURS
Good dessert walks fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 2 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
At Torrons Vicens on La Rambla, a guide such as Chelsea, Alexandra, or Martina leads you through 45 minutes of nougat history, production films, and tastings. Try several flavors, learn about Turrón de Agramunt, and finish with hot chocolate or horchata.
“Very interesting to learn about the history of the chocolatier house and the nuga of nugas.”
At Kina Chocolates in Barcelona, you will roast, peel, grind, and taste cacao before making a chocolate bar. Guides including Oscar, Renée, and Franklin explain chocolate history, farming, and fairer cocoa production in Spanish or English. The two-hour workshop suits adults, teenagers, and families.
“Great - informative & hands on. Oscar was friendly, fluent & willing to field all my questions. Gave me an appreciation of what chocolate goes through & how to work with cocoa pods.”
Pick a Gaudí building, a table or a boat.
