Chocolate lovers joined the first batch of the Make Your Own Chocolate Workshop in Tagbilaran on July 4, 2026.
Dalareich Chocolate Studio hosted the hands-on activity in Booy, Tagbilaran City. During the workshop, participants explored the art and science behind chocolate making.
Moreover, each participant created sweet treats to enjoy and take home.
Chocolate Lovers Enjoy a Hands-On Workshop
The workshop gave participants a closer look at how chocolatiers transform cacao into chocolate.
Instead of simply tasting finished products, guests joined the chocolate-making process. They learned essential techniques while working with chocolate ingredients and tools.
As a result, the activity offered both education and entertainment. It also gave chocolate lovers a deeper appreciation for every handcrafted treat.
Dalareich Polot Leads the Chocolate-Making Session
Dalareich Polot, known as Bohol’s Chocolate Princess, led the first workshop batch.
She shared her knowledge of chocolate making with the participants. In addition, she explained the skills and care needed to create quality chocolate products.
Her guidance helped participants understand both the creative and technical sides of the process.
Therefore, the workshop became more than a simple food activity. It became an opportunity to learn directly from an experienced Boholano chocolatier.
Participants Create Their Own Chocolate Treats
One of the workshop’s highlights allowed guests to make their own chocolate creations.
Participants applied what they learned during the session. Then, they prepared personalized treats that they could take home afterward.
This hands-on experience made the workshop interactive and memorable. Furthermore, it allowed participants to express their creativity through chocolate.
The activity welcomed people who wanted to learn a new skill. It also appealed to families, friends, food lovers, and visitors searching for a unique experience in Tagbilaran.
Promoting Bohol’s Local Chocolate Industry
The Make Your Own Chocolate Workshop also highlighted Bohol’s growing chocolate industry.
Bohol produces cacao and supports local businesses that transform it into value-added products. Consequently, workshops like this can help more people understand the work behind locally made chocolate.
They can also promote local entrepreneurship and encourage support for Boholano products.
Moreover, food experiences can strengthen tourism in Tagbilaran City. Visitors can learn about local ingredients while meeting the people who turn them into special products.
A Sweet and Educational Experience in Tagbilaran
The first batch marked a successful start for the Make Your Own Chocolate Workshop.
Participants gained practical knowledge, created their own treats, and enjoyed a unique chocolate experience. Most importantly, the activity celebrated local talent and Bohol’s cacao heritage.
The workshop showed that learning can be both creative and delicious.
