Welcome to the Zotter Experience World

Immerse yourself in the world of chocolate!

During the exciting tasting tour through the Chocolate Theatre you will witness live how chocolate is created. You can look inside our production through the glass architecture and at the same time check out at the tasting stations how the cocoa bean is transformed into chocolate. From the bean to the bar. Chocolate is an experience! Reservation strongly recommended: Book your choco tour, experience first-hand how chocolate is made and snack to your heart's content.

Cocoa Journey in the Zotter Experience World

In the Chocolate Theatre we take you on "A Cocoa Journey Around the World" to Peru, Nicaragua, Belize, Madagascar and India. The best-of of all our film journeys of the last few years, since May 2022 in a new, previously unreleased and entertaining version with English subtitles by our filmmaker Roland Wehap.

Over 500 chocolates await you in the chocolate shop! The whole Zotter assortment is available. Hand-scooped chocolates, pure single origin chocolates, drinking chocolates, couverture, handmade organic bonbons, gift sets and many more. You can also assemble your own individual bonbon box and discover a lot of new flavours. We‘re looking forward to your visit!
