About This Spanish Cooking Class

Chocolate Lovers' Baking Class
2026-02-07 13:00 - 16:00 UTC
Start the sweetest season of the year with an afternoon devoted entirely to the art of chocolate. In this hands-on 2½-hour class, you’ll create an elegant array of chocolate confections — each one beautiful enough to gift and delicious enough to keep for yourself.
We’ll begin with long-stemmed chocolate-covered strawberries, the timeless indulgence that never goes out of style, then move into liquid-centered cherry cordials that burst with flavor when you bite into them. You’ll learn how to temper chocolate to a flawless shine, then use those skills to craft hand-painted truffles and pralines, gleaming with color or patterned with professional transfer sheets. You’ll also create your own custom chocolate bars, decorated with edible gold, sea salt, or fruit, and finish with a deeply rich flourless chocolate cake (the ultimate Valentine-worthy finale!)
This pre-Valentine session is ideal for solo bakers, friends, or couples who’d rather celebrate early (and with chocolate). You’ll leave with recipes, techniques you’ll use forever, and a beautifully boxed assortment of your own handmade creations.

BYOB

BYOB isn’t required, but chocolate does love good company. A chilled bottle of Banfi’s Rosa Regale is a perfect match — fruity, effervescent, and made to flirt with chocolate. Other lovely options include ruby port, sweet red Lambrusco, or a crisp sparkling rosé. For those going spirit-free, try cherry or blackcurrant soda, espresso, or sparkling water with a twist of orange. Bring whatever feels celebratory; it’s all part of the indulgence.

ADMIT ONE

Each ticket admits one person, but don’t let that stop you. This is a great experience to share with a romantic partner, friends, family, neighbors, coworkers, frenemies, and anybody you want to share the chocolate with!
