A cocoa adventure that everyone should take!

When it comes to chocolate, you may think of Belgium or France first, but did you know? In fact, Taiwan is also one of the few countries in the world that has "cocoa planting conditions"! The "Formosa Cocoa Farm" is a professional cocoa farm located in Neipu, Pingtung. It not only grows cocoa, but also takes you to understand the magical process of chocolate from fruit to finished product. Not only adults like this place, but children will also go crazy because you can really touch the cocoa fruit with your own hands, smell the smell of cocoa fermentation, and make your own chocolate by yourself. Rather than a tourist attraction, it is better to say that it is a "dessert adventure" that activates the five senses. 🌿 Cocoa is not just a fruit, but a local gift from southern Taiwan The name of the Formosa Cocoa Farm comes from the ancient name of Taiwan, "Formosa", which means the beautiful island. This land has sufficient sunshine, moderate rainfall and warm humidity, which creates high-quality cocoa beans and makes Pingtung gradually become one of the important cocoa producing areas in Asia. The farm is full of cocoa trees, and orange-red fruits can be seen hanging on the branches all year round, just like the magic tree in fairy tales. There are special guides on site to explain the complete process from harvesting, fermenting, baking, grinding, to turning cocoa fruits into chocolate. You can see it clearly at once. 🍫 Make chocolate by yourself, sweeten the memories in your heart When you come to Formosa Cocoa Farm, the most popular activity is definitely the "DIY handmade chocolate" experience! You can choose your favorite mold, pour the melted chocolate into it, and then add dried fruits, nuts, and marshmallows for decoration. It's not just learning, but also a visual and taste creation journey. The pure chocolate made here is "Bean to Bar" grade, with real concentration, solid taste, and layered aroma, which is not inferior to imported boutique brands. Make it yourself and eat it yourself, which is particularly fulfilling. 📸 What is the best way to take pictures of the farm? Walking route under the cocoa tree (the orange-red fruit looks very tropical when photographed) Inside the chocolate workshop, the glass window design looks like a European factory style The finished chocolate DIY products are lined up, and they are super cute when paired with grass, wooden tables or colored walls The cocoa bean drying area is particularly story-telling under the sun 📍【Tourism Information Assistant】 Address: No. 7, Jianxing Road, Neipu Township, Pingtung County (it is recommended to set the navigation to "Formosa Cocoa Farm") Opening hours: 09:30-17:00 daily (it is recommended to make an appointment for a guided tour or DIY experience in advance) Experience items: guided tour, chocolate DIY, cocoa drink tasting, farm walk Suggested stay time: 1.5-2 hours Suitable for: parent-child families, dessert lovers, couples taking photos, small group booking experience It turns out that the beginning of dessert is a fruit growing on a southern tree. " From the cocoa grown in the land to the pieces of chocolate made by hand, every step contains warmth and craftsmanship. Walking into this farm, you can not only taste delicious food, but also re-understand Taiwan's land and potential. If you have not seen real cocoa fruit, come here to satisfy your eyes and taste buds at once #5月好去处2025
