The activity was carried out on November 24-26, 2025, at the Kuwum Village Hall with a sharing and mentoring method for 30 participants. At the end of the program, participant satisfaction was measured through the distribution of questionnaires. The results of this community service activity indicate that the smart culture village initiative through Cau Chocolate product innovation and educational tourism as a driver of the creative economy was successfully implemented and achieved a very high level of participant satisfaction. This is reflected in: (i) active participant engagement during the sharing session; (ii) increased efforts to develop local alternative food sources, particularly cocoa cultivation, through collaboration with Cau Chocolate in Desa Tua Petiga; and (iii) the identification of village potentials supported by the contribution of the Merah Putih Cooperative through the integration of cocoa cultivation, cocoa-based UMKM and derivative products, educational and agrotourism development, as well as the creation of tourism products and souvenirs.]]>
