“I can't stop talking about this class and what a fab day of chocolate making I had! I especially love the sustainability ‘manifesto’ and all the notes that I can use at home.” Evening Standard
Why we love it
If chocolate’s your thing, this masterclass is chock-a-block full of sweet goodness. Step into the shoes of a professional chocolatier for the day and experience what it's like to create chocolate masterpieces - think gloriously gooey truffles melting in your mouth, and snapable, silky chocolate discs. There really is nothing more delectable in life than a well-made chocolate, particularly when you can say it’s been crafted by your very own hands!
What's Included?
- Enjoy a full day Chocolate-Making Masterclass for one at Cookery School at Little Portland Street, including breakfast and lunch
- Discover the origins of chocolate, the intricacies of the process and professional techniques such as tempering, enrobing and decorating
- Learn how to flavour and shape fillings for truffles, how to create rochers, discs and chocolate shapes as well as ganache and Easter eggs
- Sample some of the best quality chocolate in the world from brands such as Original Beans, Amadei and Valrhona
- Create a variety of chocolates to take home and enjoy
Description
‘God forgive me, it melts ever so slowly on your tongue, and tortures you with pleasure,’ says Yvette Marceau in reference to the infamous chocolate truffles of the film, Chocolat. No truer word was ever spoken. And now, you have the opportunity to make your very own under the careful guidance of experts from Cookery School, known for their affiliation with sustainable chocolate sourcing.
During your full day chocolate masterclass, you will learn about the intricacies of the chocolate process, including where the chocolate comes from and how to prepare and flavour it accordingly. You’ll also try out a number of professional techniques such as tempering, enrobing, shaping the fillings and decorating the chocolates with colourful ingredients.
To start your day, you’ll be invited to a Cookery School breakfast, followed by a tasting of globally renowned chocolate brands such as Original Beans, Amadei and Valrhona. You’ll then get to create your very own truffles, ganache, rochers, discs and chocolate shapes before taking a well-deserved break.
After a Cookery School lunch, you’ll continue to discover more about the artistry of chocolate-making, including moulding your own Easter eggs. On completion of the day, you’ll have a variety of chocolates to take home, as well as the recipes that you can recreate again.
