Item Description
A box of chocolates may be the perfect gift, but it’s even better when those chocolates are made by hand in your own kitchen. In this half-day hands-on cooking class, you’ll learn to make Belgian-style truffles with butter cream fillings. You’ll unravel the mysteries of tempering by touch and feel and how to avoid seizing up (you and the chocolate!). Discuss the history, cultivation, and development of this global favorite and gain insight into how best to purchase and select chocolate for your home projects. You’ll leave with plenty of truffles to share with friends and family or keep entirely for yourself. We won’t tell.
