Chocolate Tastings
and
Workshops
Enjoy an experience in the heart of our small shop in the North Winton Village. Our store can host small groups. We also facilitate experiences in community spaces or right in your own home!
Virtual Tastings
Our Chocolate Tastings are a unique way to experience chocolate. One of our Certified Chocolate Analysts and Sommeliers will walk you through the tasting experience. Our Education Director will help you choose a theme that is perfect for your group. Focus areas include history, science, social justice and more!
Chocolate Pairings
We partner with several local wineries to offer these experiences to you, your team, and your clients. We host these on site at wineries or can discuss venue options. We’ll teach your group how to taste chocolate and wine (or beer, cocktails, or non-alcoholic alternatives!) and discuss the results of the pairings. Learn a bit about the chocolates, how they are made, and how we choose our pairings.
chocolate Workshops
If you want to get hands-on, these are the experiences for you! Our Truffle Making Workshop explores the history of chocolate while guiding you through making flavorful ganache and rolling truffles. Our Tempering Workshop will show you how to make shiny chocolate bark with that perfect *snap* while discussing the science behind our favorite food. Our Bean to Bar Workshop journeys through how chocolate is made while crafting your own raw chocolate mass. During all of our workshops we taste through a sampling of chocolates. These classes can be hosted for small groups in our facility. We can also choose from a preferred venue, or, if you have a kitchen, we can come to you!
Lindsay! Everyone loved the chocolate presentation! The samples you chose for us were spot on perfect to help us understand the nuances of chocolate tasting. Your patient, inclusive, nonjudgmental style got the discussion going. Your emphasis on ethical practices is so important and really mirrors what our younger generation of cousins is focusing on and attending to in their own lives. You have a lot to teach all of us– and it was fun! There are rumblings about coming to Rochester to visit your store as well as online orders. Thanks for creating the perfect bridal shower event – (did you see Erica glowing?) and honoring all requests- I know there were many. I will miss communicating with you- it has been a pleasure- but at least I am local and can come visit. Keep that beautiful energy going!!
With heartfelt thanks,
