Step into the world of artisan chocolate making with a hands-on workshop at CocoaBistro in Kingston, Ontario. Designed for beginners and chocolate lovers alike, this two-hour class introduces the core techniques used by professional chocolatiers—without needing any prior experience.

Start by learning the fundamentals of chocolate tempering, the key to achieving the ideal shine, snap, and smooth texture. With expert instruction throughout, you’ll put those skills into practice as you work through a series of guided creations. Dip fresh strawberries, roll rich chocolate truffles, and craft your own custom chocolate bar using premium ingredients and confectionery tools provided on site.

As you create, you’ll also learn about the chocolate-making process from bean to bar and pick up practical tips you can use again at home. The small-group format (maximum 6 participants) keeps the experience interactive and allows plenty of time for questions, coaching, and hands-on participation.

Finish the workshop with a selection of handmade chocolates you made yourself—packaged to take home and enjoy (or share, if you’re feeling generous). Ideal for couples, friends, families, celebrations, and team-building, this class blends creativity, learning, and sweet rewards in one delicious evening.
