Schakolad Chocolate Factory (pronounced shaq-oh-LAD) is a small chocolate
boutique in Legacy Park in Plano .
Chocolates are hand made using a three-generation European style family
recipe. Goodies are prepared, hand
dipped and decorated. During today’s
field trip the kids got a “behind the counter” tour of the facility. The owner gave them an overview of the
history of chocolate along with health benefits and other fun chocolate
information. They were allowed to sample
all kinds of chocolate and even hand dip their own chocolate covered caramels.
It is probably not surprising to find out that we have had other chocolate
field trips, like a visit to the Sweet
Shop in 2007, and ‘The History of Chocolate” with cocoa trees at the Dallas Arboretum. The Schakolad Factory was definitely a
smaller scale factory but it involved a lot more sampling which is always a
bonus!
I made it beautiful with abundant branches,
