WHY A CHOCOLATE FESTIVAL, IN PARTICULAR, IN RADOVLJICA?

Chocolate has been a feature of the Radovljica area for a long time. With roots dating back to 1922, Gorenjka is the most well-known Slovenian brand of chocolate and it originates here. In addition to Gorenjka in the Radol'ca area there are now three local chocolatiers: Radolška čokolada, the Molinet House of Chocolate, and Martisan Chocolate.
