Discover how cacao is grown, processed, and transformed into chocolate at this immersive three-floor attraction.

Located next to the Royce' Town Factory in Tobetsu, this interactive facility takes visitors on a journey through the world of chocolate.

Step into a recreation of Royce' Cacao Farm in Colombia and experience the tropical environment where cacao is cultivated. At the glass-walled processing plant, watch roasted cacao beans transformed into smooth, aromatic chocolate. The rhythmic hum of the machinery and the rich scent of cacao offer a glimpse into the craftsmanship behind Royce' products.

The interactive play area makes learning about chocolate making fun through hands-on games and activities. Visitors can also join the popular chocolate workshop, decorating a giant chocolate bar measuring about 23 cm by 12 cm with nuts and dried fruits to create a one-of-a-kind treat. Exploring different ingredient textures adds to the enjoyment for both adults and children.

Before leaving, stop by the factory shop, where more than 200 varieties of chocolates, baked goods, soft-serve ice cream, and exclusive products await. A typical visit takes 90 to 120 minutes, offering an engaging introduction to cacao and Royce' chocolate craftsmanship.
