Wicked Chocolate Class

Discover the science & secrets of chocolate making in this 3 hour
class.  Begin with a tasting or shall we say aspiration of what you
are to recreate.  Learn how to temper chocolate and be involved in
the making of European styled chocolates, together married with
the most wicked infused hot chocolate to pass your lips.  Your
creations are yours to take home, so if a warm day may we
recommend you bring a cooler bag to keep them in pristine
condition.
The Italian
In our Italian cooking class you will learn how to make a delicious feast, covering basic Italian
cooking techniques.  We will show you how to roll your own pasta, make a classic napoli sauce,
a hearty polenta and a well-known Tiramisu.  Aromatic herbs and fresh vegetables and cheeses
are combined to make a beautifully robust and warming dish you can enjoy at the end with
matched wine.

Sample Menu (changes occasionally):

Fresh Napoli Sauce
