Chocolate Tasting and Making Class

In this class you will learn about the origin and processing of chocolate from tree to bar.  We will then taste a spectrum of chocolates ranging from cocoa butter to cocoa nibs (the purest form of chocolate).  I will demonstrate the importance of tempering in the chocolate making process.  In the hands on portion of the class you will hand dip chocolate ganache truffles, make your own chocolate cups, and also customize your own chocolate bark, with a seasonal colorful design on the chocolate using chocolate transfer sheets.
