• Cracking and winnowing the beans

What You’ll Take Home:

• 3 70% chocolate bars made by you, with your choice of inclusions (we'll provide cocoa nibs, salt, freeze-dried raspberry, sprinkles, sunflower seeds, and other options—all allergen-free).

Whether you’re a chocolate enthusiast or a curious beginner, this class offers a fun and delicious introduction to chocolate-making.
