Museum for lovers...Chocolate lovers that is :)

"Enjoy an expedition through 3,00 years of cholocate history...More info here."

Our "planners" (the mommies) advised us that they want to optimize the 2-day Cologne tour, see as many sights as possible, and skip the usual museum visits (the queue could indeed be discouraging for tourists with time-constrained scheds)...But when they heard about this museum, they changed their mind :)

-An elaborate structure with a capacity for 200kg of warm liquid chocolate which pours out of the four stainless-steel into the fountain basin. The museum employees then dip waffles into this warm,oh-so-yummy chocolate and offers them to visitors...
