A new tour in Brooklyn is drawing an unusual crowd from around the world -- chocoholics. NY1 borough reporter Jeanine Ramirez filed the following report: 

"Come on right this way you guys." 

Tourists step off the bus in the DUMBO section of Brooklyn in front of Jacques Torres Chocolates, creators of "fresh, authentic and handmade artisan chocolates." 

After a brief introduction -- "We consider our white chocolate, chocolate because we actually use cocoa butter" - come the samples.

It's one of four stops on a new chocolate tour put together by A Slice of Brooklyn bus tours. 

"It's good it's like trying stuff that you normally don't try, like you wouldn't try it on your own so you get a little bit of everything," tourist Nita Chawla says. "Like the pomegranate was very interesting with dark chocolate. It's almost healthy."

The bus then rumbles to Cobble Hill for a tasting at the Chocolate Room, including its signature dessert -- chocolate cake. 

"We do have the cake" co-owner Naomi Joseper says holding a tray of samples, "We're about to offer you a little bite-size shot of it. Our mini chocolate cupcakes."

The chocoholics on this tour are from everywhere. 

Across the bridge....

"I've been in NY for two years. I live in Nolita and this is my first time in Brooklyn," Manhattan resident Gina Chawla.

Across the country ... 

"Little Rock Arkansas," adds a man.

And across the ocean ...

"Amsterdam, Holland," a woman says.

The Slice of Brooklyn tour company started with a pizza tour in 2005, and expanded with buses to Dyker Heights to view the elaborate home displays of Christmas lights during the holidays.

The $50 Chocolate tour capitalizes on the international craving these days for all things Brooklyn, including the borough's hot local artisanal food scene.

"Brooklyn has always had a history with chocolate whether it was Ebeinger's Blackout Cake or Fox's U Bet and Chocolate egg cream," says tour company founder Tony Muia.

At Raaka Chocolate, on Seabring St. in Red Hook, tourists learn how cacao beans are turned into chocolate bars.  

"We moved into this with two goals in mind. We wanted to produce more chocolate," Peter Gray, the company's community director, tells the tour group. "But also we want to get people inside to see how chocolate is made."

And at the Li-Lac Chocolate factory in Sunset Park the sweet stuff is molded into unique shapes.

Throughout the tour, Muia inserts bite-sized lots of facts about chocolate and his favorite borough. 

"Brooklyn born and raised. Bensonhurst. I even wear it on my arm," he says, showing his tattoo. 

The chocolate tour runs three days a week. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.  

"If you're on a chocolate tour, you have to love chocolate. And there's no shortage of it," Muia says. "At each stop, there's a minimum of two to five tastings at each place."
