Italy’s Eurochocolate Festival: Savoring Sweet Delights

Having lived in Rome for several years, we were so lucky to be able to hop on random trains and go to these local festivals. Almost every town or region in central Italy is known for producing some staple food or drink. It could be strawberries, artichokes, wine, or a specific type of chocolate. My first visit to Perugia happened to be during Italy’s Eurochocolate Festival, a celebration of everything cocoa-related, and it is as AMAZING as it sounds. I couldn’t wait to try all the delicious treats, especially Nutella.

 

 

Unraveling the Eurochocolate Festival in Perugia

Perugia’s Piazza IV November became a vibrant chocolate wonderland during the Eurochocolate Festival. Artisan chocolatiers showcased their craftsmanship, displaying a mesmerizing array of chocolate sculptures and delectable treats.

Nutella Magic: A Beloved Treat 

At the heart of the Eurochocolate Festival, Nutella took center stage, delighting chocolate enthusiasts of all ages. I indulge in Nutella everything. Crepes, gelato, Nutella-covered strawberries, each Nutella-infused creation was a testament to the love affair between chocolate and hazelnut spread.

Beyond Expectations: Exploring Unique Chocolatey Creations

While Nutella was undeniably a star attraction, the Eurochocolate Festival had much more to offer. We discovered a world of innovative chocolate concoctions, including dark chocolate (with balsamic vinegar) and savory dishes infused with cocoa. It’s a big sugar rush – but it was so worth it.

Tiffany has helped plan two trips to Italy so far, and both times we had an excellent experience! Her knowledge of the region is remarkable, and she was very attentive to our needs. Our first trip was spent in Rome, Florence and Venice, with a trip to the Vatican. The second trip was to Sorrento and Positano. Both trips were so memorable, thanks in large part to Tiffany's masterful planning! We will definitely be using Immersive Italy again in the future!

Mark & Tiffany did such a fabulous job - I cannot recommend them enough (in fact, I've told everyone I can about them). I used them to plan my 50th Birthday Girls' Trip, as I've never been to Europe. I'm an event planner with very high standards for details, and they both made my trip experience so relaxing, from buying all the train tickets to arranging private tours and drivers, to knowing where we needed to spend extra time and the order of seeing the cities and which restaurants and bars to go to. I especially appreciated their tremendous support with little things while we were there - I actually never thought we'd hear from them while there, due to the time difference, but they were so attentive, making sure we got where we needed to be at all traveling points. Beyond that, they're extraordinarily nice people, and we felt like they were part of our trip family. They paid attention to all of my 'wish list' items (cooking classes, winery tours/tastings, boat trips, food tours) and created a completely over-the-top feeling, custom trip and for much less than I would have thought it would cost. They went above and beyond every step of the way, and I can't wait until I can plan another trip with their help.

Tiffany and Mark were amazing! They helped us plan our trip from NY to Rome, Florence, Ischia, and sorrento! They set up all of our travel plans within italy on the high speed trains and ferry to and from ischia. The excisions they arranged we awesome! The private day trip to Tuscany was an absolute dream with lunch at a winery and visits to Siena and San Gimignano. We had a private boat to take us out for the day around Capri that was the best! Can’t wait to go back and do it all again, with immersive Italy’s help, of course!

Our family vacation was an absolutely amazing, fully customized, unique Italian experience thanks to Immersive Italy! There’s so much to do and see there — it’s so exciting, but it can feel overwhelming when planning — that’s why we were so thankful to have expert guidance every step of the way. From coordinating our overall itinerary, train travel and professional ground transportation to specially selected tours — each experience went smoothly and took the stress out of the logistics so we could enjoy each moment. It was refreshing to know if we needed help during our trip, the team was extremely communicative and available to offer personalized assistance. We loved our private tours of some of the top tourist attractions, including: the Vatican, Colosseum and Pompeii. The English speaking guides were passionate, knowledgeable and friendly — and skipping the massively long lines to walk right in was so worth it! We especially enjoyed our private wine tour in Tuscany and day trip boating excursion to Capri — unbelievably special, amazing experiences! Huge thanks to Immersive Italy for memories that will last a lifetime.
