Itinerary

This is a more technical version of our hit Hand-Rolled Truffle Making class. Are you interested in learning the technique behind cooking and tempering ganache and tempering chocolate? In this class, students learn the foundations of ganache, how to shape truffles, proper table-top tempering technique, and how to enrobe truffles by hand! We use our single-origin chocolate and our house recipe to make some decadent chocolate treats. Once students cook and temper their ganache, we set those batches aside and provide students with some pre-made ganache to roll, enrobe in tempered chocolate, and coat with a selection of toppings. Students walk away with the ganache they made from scratch, six truffles to snack on, and some new skills to share with their friends!
