When the work week has you stressed out and life’s chaos begins to get to you, there’s always one thing that everyone has enough time to stop and enjoy – and that’s chocolate. Chocolate doesn’t require taking time off from work or for you to completely empty out your pockets to find yourself enjoying a little slice of heaven, just ask Willy Wonka! It wasn’t so long ago that the famous chocolate factory owner was reminding us that “If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it”. So if you’re ready to take a quick escape away from it all while you’re surrounded with something sweet, why don’t you stroll on down to the world’s largest chocolate waterfall in New York.

A chocolate manufacturer that’s been around since 1878, Venchi recently opened up their flagship store in New York and it’s absolutely spectacular.
