Explore the art of chocolate making at Rapt

Make your own chocolate bar and taste nitro ice cream

Last updated: Tuesday, 30 April 2024

Choco-o-lattes, flash nitrogen ice cream and build-a-bar experiences. This is what you’ll find at Rapt, the colourful chocolate store on Buitenkant Street. It’s a whimsical wonderland for sweet lovers, with its murals of flowers riding skateboards and rows of endless chocolate.

A WHIMSICAL WONDERLAND

Located in the middle of the East City is Rapt. This charming chocolate store is the brainchild of David Donde (owner of Truth Coffee and Art of Duplicity). The vibrant interior pays homage to the colourful pages of a comic book like, larger-than-life speech bubbles hanging over each designated section of the store.
