It’s not only loved by visitors, but also certainly, by locals. So, today I have a surprise for you, so you might as well continue reading and watch the video above. Why? I cracked open their famous 2 pound chocolate Nutella heart. The result? I had Nutella all over me. Hahaha!

What does it take to make it as a chocolatier at one of the most famous chocolate factories in New York? I have no idea.

So I spent the day training with Jacques Torres at his chocolate factory in Brooklyn. It was pretty sweet!

See the World's Largest Chocolate Waterfall at Venchi in Union Square

2018-11-21T12:30:00-05:00

Since opening in Italy in 1878, Venchi has grown into one of the country's largest chocolatiers. Expanding westward, the company recently opened a new shop and cafe on Broadway just north of Union Square that includes the world's largest chocolate waterfall. See it in action in this short video from Gothamist.

Italy's gourmet chocolatier Venchi opened its flagship NYC location last week—a narrow, festive storefront near Union Square that features a full gelato counter, towering walls of treats, extravagant coffee drinks, made-to-order crepes, and, in the back cascading behind the entire seating area, what is purportedly North America's largest chocolate waterfall. These seem like the kind of thing you'd want to be more compact, but sure, it certainly is an impressively expansive display at 10 feet high and 45 feet wide.

Check out the accompanying article for more photos and info on Venchi's new Union Square location.
