Your host will give you a little historical run down of how we went from discovering the humble cocoa bean, to consuming tons off chocolates each year, as well as explaining the whole process from cocoa bean to bar. Then it's over to you to get into groups and get creative with the ganaches and gooey chocolate fudge to come up with tasty treats. During the course of these Manchester-based sessions you will also be able to make a giant chocolate button, decorated in your very own personal style.

These workshops use chocolate from Belgian chocolatiers Belcolade from their organic collection. That means all Peruvian and Dominican cocoa beans, cane sugar and vanilla pods used to make the chocolate is grown organically. What's more, the cocoa content is nice in high in both the milk and dark chocolate, giving them low viscosity so they are ideal for dipping and enrobing chocolate creations. That's the technical gubbins done, but no doubt you're wanting to now how many choccies you'll be making?

Well, this chocolate making class in Manchester will last around 2 hours. That means you have lots of time to sniff, taste and create chocolate - as well as having a good time. And, as we alluded to earlier, you don't leave empty handed. Depending on how nifty with the dipping, rolling and decorating you are, you will be able to take around 15 of your creations home with you in a pretty hand tied bag.
