Introduction to working with chocolate
In this two hour workshop we will take the mystery out of working with chocolate. The main focus is tempering chocolate, the basic skill to working with the "Food of the Gods".
Why do we temper chocolate? What does untempered chocolate look like? Your questions will be answered when you learn to temper chocolate via the "Seeding Method".
We'll show you how to make simple chocolates using molds and introduce piping.
