Day 9 - House of Anvers Chocolate Factory - Latrobe TASMANIA










As we continued our easy drive north to Devonport we stopped in Latrobe at The House of Anvers which is a chocolate lovers’ heaven. The are famous for their hand-made chocolate truffles, chocolate oranges, fudge and their own recipe for White Hot Chocolate.
As Roger and I entered the old style house we were faced with a viewing windows so you can see the factory and the workers making all the chocolates - they were making white chocolates when we were there, moulding fine chocolates, truffles, pralines, fudge and more.
There was a small museum on the history of chocolate, and Roger and I stopped in the coffee shop (open fire place, stained glass windows) for a hot white chocolate. It was the best Hot Chocolate we have ever had and wanted to order another one but we held off as we thought it might makes us sick. LOL.
