In the heart of Cajón del Maipo stands a construction that seems taken from a fantasy book, consolidating itself as one of the most picturesque destinations in Chili. This project, born from the vision of Sergio Andrade and the commercial drive of his children, offers travelers an experience that combines sustainable architecture with the warmth of a business run by its own owners.
Where is the famous ‘Chocolate House’
The history of this venue began almost a decade ago, when the family decided to transform a privately designed property into a commercial landmark for tourism in Chili. What initially attracted attention for its curved walls and wooden details, quickly became a refuge for those looking to disconnect from the city and enjoy a privileged natural environment in the mountains.
Although the name suggests a specific theme, the establishment offers a variety of flavors that represent the rich gastronomic culture of the central area of Chili. Since its opening in 2015, the offer has constantly diversified to meet the demand of the hundreds of tourists who arrive every weekend looking for high-quality artisan products and personalized attention.
If you visit this corner of the Metropolitan Region, these are the featured products that you can find in the most famous store in Chili:
- Artisanal ice cream: made with local and seasonal ingredients.
- Fine chocolate: different varieties of signature chocolates and bars.
- Pastries: homemade cakes and jams that follow family recipes.
- Drinks: churros with hot chocolate, ideal for cold mountain days.
Despite being an absolute success in its current location, partners Lorenzo and Pangal Andrade have tried to bring the essence of their store La Home from Chocolate to other points of Chili. Although in 2023 they faced some setbacks in their expansion plans to the capital, the family remains firm in its desire to bring these delicacies to a wider audience in the short term.
