Chocolate Tempering and Crafting Experience

Love the idea of making chocolate at home? Discover the secrets behind crafting glossy bonbons and learn why tempering is such an essential step to crafting these chocolates in this online class.

Belgian chocolatière Emma from Emma’s Delights will teach you how to temper chocolate to make your very own chocolate rocks by hand or glossy bonbons with a poly-carbonate mold. You'll be delighted by the results!

During this virtual experience, have time to ask questions, give feedback on the tasting, guess some answers to questions about chocolate making and storing, and finally, you will also have a chance to win an extra box of 5 assorted Belgian chocolates during our pop-up quiz. Nut-free and vegan options are available.

We will send you a craft kit with chocolate and ingredients for topping or making rocks, but you will need to provide a few tools.

Know any other sweet-tooths like you? Why not get together and try making chocolate as a fun group activity? It's a fun thing to do at home with really tasty rewards.
