Szamos Chocolate Museum – Budapest

With your booking, you’ll receive over 90 program vouchers as a gift in budapest!

At the Szamos Chocolate Museum, the exhibited items will guide visitors to the lush world of the tropics—the birthplace of cocoa. Here, you can learn about the customs and tools used for consuming hot chocolate in noble salons. Through an array of elegant gift boxes, you will discover the subtle details of the sweet consumption culture of past centuries. You will also see the famous 78 kg marzipan statue of the “Beautiful Chocolate Girl” and the Parliament’s miniature model, both made from marzipan.

A film, shot at original locations, shows the world of cocoa plantations and the adventurous journey of cocoa beans arriving on ocean liners to the production of cocoa blocks, pastilles, and chocolate bars. Authentic tools from a 1940s confectionery shop help bring back the purchasing habits of that era. Finally, the small workshop, dating from the early days of marzipan production, contains machines that help imagine how Szamos took its first steps in the history of Hungarian marzipan.
