Upcoming Events
Chocolate and Beer Pairing
| Just in time for fall, we’re introducing a new class – a Chocolate and Beer Pairing. Though it may sound unusual at first, beer and chocolate can result in some harmonious pairings. Join Dan Del Grande from Bison Brewing and Chuck (Charles) Siegel of Charles Chocolates to sample and learn more about these unique pairings. Dan Del Grande, a certified organic brewer, has owned Bison Brewing since 1997. In addition to running an award-winning brewery with a history of innovation and use of unique ingredients, he teaches at the American Brewer’s Guild. Join us and indulge in a night of sweets and brew while learning from the experts and tasting some of the finest chocolate and beer the Bay Area has to offer. For more information visit Chocolate and Beer Pairing. |

Date: Thursday, October 30th, 6-7 pm.

Chocolate Making Class with Chuck
| Our series of Chocolate Making Classes with Chuck continues on October 25th, with our final class of the year. During this hands on class, you’ll spend several hours with Chuck in our factory kitchen (where the general public is not normally permitted) for hands on instruction. You will not only learn the basics of chocolate making such as how to make ganaches and rolled truffles, but you will also learn more advanced chocolate making techniques, including chocolate tempering and making molded chocolates. At the end of each class, you’ll be able to take home all your creations and you will receive a gift bag of supplies to help you make chocolates at home using the techniques you’ve learned. Each gift bag will contain a chocolate mold, an offset spatula, sheet pans and recipes.
Join us for this unique opportunity to learn chocolate making from a nationally recognized chocolatier. Our next class will be taking place on November 1st from 1-6pm. Cost: $300/person. You must wear closed toed shoes in our factory kitchen and please wear clothing that you don’t mind getting a little bit of chocolate on. |
