1,5 Hour Chocolate Making Class and Tastings in Brussels

Bruxelles (Belgium)

B-642970
$ 65.15

Location

We are not a so called chocolate museum or a tourist place like the numerous stores located near Grand Place where they only sell fake handcrafted Belgian chocolates. We are a true Belgian chocolate maker and we are certified by Belgian government . With us you will really learn how to make your chocolates with a true artisan!

Let's share our passion and learn a lot of things about Belgian chocolate from our plantations to our store in Brussels!


During the workshop you will handcraft some truffles , some mendiants  and a personalized chocolate bar  using selected cacao coming from our organic plantations located in Haiti Grand Anse. Once known as the perl of the Antilles, Haiti was a great exporter of coffee, vanilla, cacao, sugar cane and essential oils. The 1994 trade embargo, war and insecurity reduced the agricultural industry. Our cooperative partners drives change thanks to the focus on quality cacao and farm diversification. Smallholder farmers in Grand Anse grow our cacao organically, and deliver their wet mass to the fermentation centre where a rigorous fermentation and drying is being done, resulting in a flavoursome cacao that you will be able to use during the workshop. Our farmers receive a premium for the quality they deliver. 33,9% of the price we receive from you for this experience is used to pay premiums to our farmers.


During the experience, you will make some mendiants, some truffles and also a personalized bar that you will be able to bring with you at the end of the workshop. It is a nice moment as well to share with our chocolate makers. They will explain you a lot of things about the cacao. You will be able to taste a  cacao bean (super bitter!) and also the cacao liquor (the mass we use to make the chocolate). The experience takes place in our both locations depending the day, the time and how busy are our workshops. Both our places are very near to each other (5mns by walking): 

The meeting point is our booking desk located at Place de la Justice 5. The activity can take place in one of our 2 stores and workshops that are very closed to the meeting point. From the meeting point, once your booking has been checked, our staff will bring you to the workshop by walking. Please make sure you arrive at the meeting point at least 10mns before the starting time of the activity.

Our workshops and stores are both air-conditioned, so it may be a bit cold during the activity. Please dress in accordance.

There is currently a high demand for our chocolate workshops. Therefore, we are now proposing our daily chocolate workshops from our both stores, the main one in Sablon and the second one in Place Royale. Both stores are very close to each other (700m), less than 10mns by walking. Depending on the number of participants, and to avoid a crowded activity, we may divide the group within these two places.


Discover the wonders of Belgian chocolate and learn how to make amazing chocolates at one of the very rare chocolate artisans in Brussels. Enjoy a 1,5 hour workshop with the guidance of a true chocolate maker and have a go at making amazing handmade chocolates yourself.
