About This Christmas Chocolate Making Class
Welcome to Santa’s Chocolate Workshop, where the smell of cocoa fills the air and the countertops shimmer with edible gold dust. This is where the holiday magic (and a little mischief) begins. In this immersive, hands-on class, you’ll learn the techniques behind the season’s sweetest creations — tempering, molding, and decorating your very own collection of handmade chocolates.
We’ll start by exploring the foundations of fine chocolate, from silky ganache to that perfect glossy finish that gives each piece its irresistible sheen. Then it’s time to create! You’ll hand-paint truffles that look almost too pretty to eat, dip marshmallow pops and pretzel rods in luscious tempered chocolate, swirl and sprinkle them with festive toppings, and craft decorated brownies that are equal parts elegant and over-the-top fun. And of course, there will be rich, creamy hot cocoa to sip while you work — because no chocolate class is complete without a mug in hand.
Along the way, we’ll share professional tips for achieving shine, snap, and flavor balance, along with creative ideas for packaging and gifting your treats (assuming they make it out of your parking space uneaten). It’s the perfect class for couples, friends, or anyone who loves to mix artistry with indulgence.
Whether you’re planning to fill stockings, host a dessert exchange, or simply treat yourself, you’ll leave with a box of festive confections and the confidence to recreate them at home. Bring a friend, bring a bottle if you like — this is your invitation to experience the season in its sweetest form.
