Review Body: EMBRACE Chocolate is a must-visit for dark chocolate lovers. The moment I entered, I was greeted by a delightful chocolate aroma. The staff also shared fascinating stories about their bean-to-bar journey, enhancing the experience.
The variety of premium dark chocolate bars is impressive. My favorite was the Vietnam bar with its fruity acidic notes. The 90% chocolate bar was a rich, creamy, bittersweet delight.
Their chocolate drinks and ice creams are also fantastic. The mocha bar, a perfect coffee and chocolate mix, was a standout.
EMBRACE Chocolate offers a mindful, educational, and delicious chocolate experience. Highly recommended!

Review Body: Attended Embrace’s Chocolate Making & Appreciation workshop and had so much fun!
You could tell that Namita & her team, Dayah & Chantal, were not only knowledgeable but passionate about chocolate. The workshop was organised and engaging.
Not only did we left with our own crafted chocolate bars but a newfound appreciation for the craft.
Highly recommend this to anyone, perfect activity for couple/groups.

Meet your host
Namita Gupta started Embrace Chocolate in 2021 after years of discovering unique chocolate on her travels. She had always enjoyed chocolate, but exploring different origins and flavours opened her eyes to the craft of small-batch producers. She was especially drawn to dark chocolate made with fine flavour beans, where farmers were fairly paid for their quality work. The simplicity of ingredients and depth of flavours fascinated her, inspiring her to create something of her own. Her journey is all about exploration, curiosity, and appreciation for chocolate in its purest form.
