Discover the origins of chocolate and the important role chocolate played in ancient Maya and Aztec societies. Try a chocolate drink similar to one the ancient Maya enjoyed, see what you can “buy” with a pod of cocoa beans, solve a hieroglyph puzzle and participate in other hands-on activities that explore these vibrant cultures. Plus, every participant will make a Mesoamerican inspired chocolate treat to take home and enjoy!
