Chocoholics listen up, because we've just found you a dream holiday and you guessed it - it involves serious amounts of the sweet stuff.

The cruise, which will depart from Civitavecchia Italy on 16th April next year, is dedicated to chocolate.

From tastings to themed menus, chocotails (yes alcoholic chocolatey cocktails - yum!), chocolate-focused activities and workshops - it's going to be an intensely sweet trip that you won't want to miss.

The cruise will last for eight days in total. (

Once aboard for the eight day trip, appropriately named Eurochocolate Cruise, you'll sail around the Mediterranean on a ship, visiting the likes of Genoa, Barcelona, Catania and Palma de Mallorca.

It is a collaboration between Italy's Costa Cruises and annual international chocolate festival, Eurochocolate that is hosted in Perugia, Italy.

Each time the ship docks, you'll have the chance to head on a chocolate themed day trip, including the Chocolate Museum of Barcelona, but if you don't like to get off the boat too much, plenty of fun is to be had on board too.

There will be a master chocolatier creating insane sculptures, as well as chocolate and wine pairings and all things decadent. We're drooling just thinking about it.

Just be sure to arrive hungry, because you will be welcomed with a kit in your cabin that contains edible gifts, as well as non-edible gadgets that are themed around the sweet treat.

Cruise prices start at €499 (approx £431), but you do need to pay an additional fee of €120 (approx £120) for the activities.

And don't forget, the cruise starts in Civitavecchia, Italy, so you need to pay to fly out there first, so take that into account when you're budgeting.

You're no doubt itching to book this indulgent cruise, because who wouldn't be? Head to the Costa Cruises website here to make this dream trip a reality - we'll 100 per cent see you there.

Now pass us the Dairy Milk, we need snacks while we're busy planning.
