Transforming the Cacao Bean
Advertisement
At this one-of-a-kind workshop, participants will learn the art of transforming a cacao bean into a raw chocolate product from start to finish! We’ll sample a variety of beans from Fiji, Ecuador, and Tanzania so you can try chocolate in different forms. You'll learn how cacao transforms from a pod on a tree to the palm of your hand, and journey through the ancient art of making chocolate using traditional tools mixed with our modern techniques. Students will roast, winnow, grind, and taste the results. Take home handmade raw chocolate and a new, invaluable understanding of how cacao beans become chocolate.
