Chocolate!
Have you ever been in a museum? Probably, yes. There are different types of them, museum of art, history, technology … There are paintings and photos on the walls, or sculptures in the middle of halls, different exhibits in the shelves. What about museum of chocolate? Yes, yes, it exists.
I have been in the museum of chocolate of Cologne right on the riverside of Rein. With the entrance tickets they give also a piece of chocolate Lindt. Inside one can learn all about chocolate. How people collect the cocoa beans, dry them, select the good ones, where and how they sell it, how people get white and black chocolate, also cocoa wine. In the museum is presented its influence on the economy of African countries, of the world. Are shown different cups of different ages which were used for drinking chocolate. But these are not the most interesting things.
Inside is a small factory of chocolate Lindt, with glass windows. You can follow all the steps of making black, white chocolate, chocolate with milk, you see how it is mixed, how it flows through glass pipes, then the forms are filled in with it. And these local made chocolates are sold right in the museum to a inpatient visitors.
You see how is possible to make hollow rabbit chocolate, black and white football balls, truffles. If you like chocolate a lot and it’s too much just to look all these, they give you fluid chocolate right from the chocolate fountain.
It’s funny to look at little children looking at flowing chocolate, but it’s much more interesting to look after people who are not already young :)
In the end of museum is a greenhouse with huge trees of cocoa and golden fishes, which don’t like coins!
