Historic Blenheim invites you for a special hands-on program presented as part of the Chocolate Lovers Festival in Fairfax City! On February 7-8, 2026, families are invited to explore how colonial chocolate differed from the sweet treats we enjoy today through a series of interactive sensory stations.

Smell the spices once mixed into 18th-century chocolate, feel the texture of cacao in its raw forms, and taste American Heritage Chocolate inspired by historic recipes. Then, compare it with modern chocolate to see how flavors have evolved over time.

Chocolate Through the Senses is a free, fun, and engaging experience for chocolate lovers of all ages!
