Designed for aspiring chocolatiers and chocolate lovers alike, the hands-on classes provide an immersive introduction to the artistry, precision and techniques behind Norman Love Confections\u2019 award-winning chocolates. Participants will work alongside the company\u2019s chocolate masters, creating their own chocolates while learning the methods used to craft the jewel-like confections that customers have come to know and enjoy.<\/p>\n
During the three-hour experience, guests will create chocolates from start to finish, learning techniques such as hand-coloring molds, casting liquid chocolate and preparing custom ganache fillings.
