Belgian Chocolate Making Workshop

Experience the magic of authentic Belgian chocolate craftsmanship.

In this indulgent hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to create rich, elegant chocolates using professional confectionery techniques - from crafting a slabbed affogato ganache to molding, piping, and dipping. Guided by our chocolatier, explore the precision and creativity that define fine Belgian chocolate making.

Step into the world of European-style chocolate artistry.

In this two-hour class, participants will discover how to make a velvety espresso-infused affogato ganache completely from scratch, master the art of tempering chocolate for shine and snap, and shape beautiful cocoa-bean bonbons.

You’ll learn how to pour and set a slabbed ganache, cut it to perfection, then hand-dip and decorate your creations using professional techniques. The session concludes with molding and piping into cocoa bean–shaped shells - resulting in a delicious harmony of flavour, texture, and craftsmanship.

Participants will prepare and take home:
