Chef Zach has built something genuinely special here. Paris-trained as both a chef and chocolatier, he brings serious credentials to an experience that never feels intimidating. Reviewers consistently highlight his depth of knowledge, covering everything from the history and origin stories of classic desserts to the actual science behind chocolate work. Classes range from truffle rolling and soufflés to French pastries like Tigrés and Mi-Cuit, and guests repeatedly mention leaving with both delicious results and the confidence to recreate recipes at home. The experience works well for couples, small groups, and corporate team building alike. Chef Zach can host in his home or travel to your event, and the setup feels polished either way. Reviewers note he comes fully prepared, walks through every step patiently, and genuinely loves sharing his craft. With a perfect rating across a large volume of reviews and zero complaints to speak of, this one is hard to argue with.
Chocolate Truffle Class for 30 people We had a great time with Zach, and liked how in-depth he was with the history and tasting notes. He brought everything we needed (besides napkins and water for our guests) which made the event seamless. Would definitely book again!
