chocolate milk baths?
 

Anyone heard for a place near Bern where you can get chocolate milk baths? Someone told me about them but I can't seem to locate any info on the Internet about them.
Has anyone ever taken the Swiss Chocolate Train?

Only place I've heard of Chocolate Milk baths was in the Chocolate River located in Willy Wonkas Chocolate Factory. ;-)

A train made of chocolate?

A bath in chocolate?

I think you've overdosed on the stuff my dear.

I usually don't drink bath water, but in this case I might be tempted.... :-)

I've been to Bern and never came across what you mention!

Uh, this person who told you, how well do you know him/her? I think he/she put one over on you.

Sigh~ lolling in a milk bath sounds lovely and Chocolate? divine :)

There are many Chocolate Bath products, soaps, fizzies, etc, so maybe that is what someone is referring to.

As for the train, here is what I found on Google:
"The Swiss Chocolate Train departs from Montreux on the Swiss Riviera, ascends to Gruyères, home of the famous Gruyère cheese, and eventually continues to Broc, where the chocolate factory is situated. "
try www.mob.ch

Yes, we did the Swiss Chocolate Train. It is a pretty little antique train and goes from Montreux to Gruyere and Broc. It makes a wonderful day trip. Actually we took it when we were in Gstad, meeting the train at another town near by. In addition to visiting a cheese factory in Gruyeres, you have a couple hours there to do lunch and explore the castle on your own. Then you visit the wonderful chocolate factory at Broc, as I remember one of the only factories that still uses whole milk to make their chocolate, and it is wonderful. They offer a tasting room where you can "pig out" on about 30 varieties -- eating as much as you want without getting sick.

But this chocolate milk bath thing seems a bit far fetched, or at least I hope so.

The place I know which has cocoa baths is a spa in Hershey, Pennsylvania. No leads on the Swiss counterpart.

Hmmmm. I knew my last Hershey Bar had a funny taste.

OK all you doubters! I've located the site for the chocolate milk baths and have actually corresponded with the spa that does them. THe site is http://perso.wanadoo.fr/ypsilon/indexYPS.htm. They offer a bath for one
person in 300 l of real milk only or milk and chocolate from Nestlé ,
and a bath for 2 persons in 500 l of milk. They say it's really good for bones and skin and super relaxing. I'm waiting on pricing info now.
You all owe me a chocolate milk bath!

sweet!!

Sandiedog, on the site you gave, I found "Bain au petit-lait" (whey bath) but not chocolate-milk bath. Where did I miss it?

Spa center "After the Rain", in Geneva, however, advertise chocolate bath as follows.

The chocolate bath : jacuzzi of 700 liters, with 350 liters of milk, 1/3 of water and the rest is grated chocolate and cocoa oil. Price SFR100 for 20 to 30 minutes.

Or rather SFR120.00 for 45 minutes.

Sign me up. I am so there....

Michael Jackson takes milk bath regularly to stay young. Now I wonder maybe those are chocolate milk baths?

Remember the great Vanity Fair cover of Whoppie Goldberg submerged in a tub of milk :)

I would definitely go for the chocolate.

I know, I know, it is Whoopie..
