Chocolate Takes Center Stage at Capella Bangkok
Capella Bangkok is giving the traditional afternoon tea ritual a decadent new identity, putting premium chocolate firmly in the spotlight with its limited-edition Éclat de Cacao experience. Presented at the hotel’s elegant Tea Lounge beside the Chao Phraya River, the afternoon tea explores cocoa through contrasting flavors, textures, techniques, and intensities rather than treating chocolate simply as a sweet finale.

Rather than relying on chocolate in one familiar form, Éclat de Cacao explores how cocoa can change dramatically depending on its origin, intensity, preparation, and accompanying ingredients. Different creations showcase the chefs’ interpretations of flavor and texture while giving guests an opportunity to discover chocolate beyond conventional cakes and confectionery.
Tea remains an important part of the experience, with premium teas as well as herbal and floral infusions complementing the chocolate-focused menu. The Tea Lounge itself adds another dimension, with its calming lily pond and views toward life along Bangkok’s Chao Phraya River providing an atmospheric backdrop.
