Chocolate Making Tour and Workshop

About this class

Cerreta Candy Company in Glendale offers chocolate making tours and demonstrations that walk visitors through the full confectionery process, from tempering chocolate at precise temperatures to hand-dipping and decorating finished pieces. The family-owned factory has been making candy in Arizona since 1968, and the tour gives participants a real look at artisanal candy production on a commercial scale alongside a hands-on component where students create their own piece. It is one of the only opportunities in the Phoenix metro area to learn traditional chocolate making in a working factory setting.
