What better way to connect with our heritage than indulging in that timeless, universal treat: Chocolate. In 18th-century Louisbourg, chocolate was expensive, and a luxury most often found in the homes of the French elite.

And if we don’t have enough reasons to enjoy chocolate already, during the 18th century it was believed to have medicinal properties, warming people from the inside, and giving them strength and energy.

Indulge in this delicious treat at the two-day Fête du Chocolat, featuring workshops, tastings, and bean-to-bar creations from Evertide Cholate Makers, Island Chocolates, and Ploughmans Lunch—Bakery and Chocolate.
