Make Your Own Chocolate Bar

About this class

This 75-minute class at Dandelion's Mission factory walks you through the final stages of chocolate production, starting with pre-ground cacao paste and guiding you through conching, tempering, and molding a personalized single-origin chocolate bar with toppings you choose from a selection of inclusions. The instructor explains how each stage affects the final flavor and texture of the bar, drawing on Dandelion's bean-to-bar process to show how decisions made at origin and in production shape what ends up in the mold. You take your finished bar home.
