Florybal opens themed chocolate shop inside historic C‑130 aircraft in Brazil’s Gramado

Florybal will inaugurate a themed chocolate store inside a retired Brazilian Air Force C‑130 Hercules aircraft during the first week of August. The aircraft, a long‑served transport plane, has been placed in the Parque Jardim Secreto do Capitão on the border of Gramado and Canela, Rio Grande do Sul.

The attraction allows visitors to explore the cabin, including the pilot’s cockpit, while browsing Florybal’s chocolates set against aviation‑inspired décor. Marketing director Tiago Cardoso said, “Few times a store is born with a story before it even opens. A Hercules C‑130 already sparks curiosity, and we see an opportunity to merge Brazilian aviation heritage with the playful spirit of our brand.” The project aims to boost tourism and preserve the aircraft’s legacy within the region’s cultural‑heritage park.
