You'll learn how to make a range of chocolates using a variety of different ingredients, colors, shapes and even textures to get the most out of the experience. You'll also receive personalized advice on how you can recreate your favorite treats at home, regardless of whether or not you own the equipment necessary to make your own chocolate.

Our friendly and experienced teachers are experts in the field and each bring a unique perspective from their own experiences in the industry. Come prepped with plenty of questions to ask and get ready to be inspired by the magic of chocolate making as you discover its origins in Mesoamerica to the modern-day streets of California’s Bay Area.
