An Artisan Chocolate Baking Class

If you love artisan chocolate and desserts, this workshop is for you!

Held in the Melbourne Farmers Market Kitchen on market day, this class is hosted by Kylie from The Dessert Plate and co hosted with Nidhi, from Cocoa & Chili who is a trained Pastry Chef. 

Upon arrival you will get a warming welcome of a deluxe Hot Chocolate made with the Manuko organic hot chocolate blends.

Nidhi will then guide you through making two very tasty chocolate focused desserts, with Kylie helping you out as need be.

And while you whip up a storm, Kylie will also be offering some sneaky chocolate tastings and giving tips on how to source fantastic artisan chocolate to suit different desserts.

On your baking menu is:

  • Hot Chocolate on arrival, to get your tastebuds ready - choose from Manuko's Original, Rose, Peppermint or Chilli flavours
  • How to make a Ganache, featuring the amazing Monsieur Truffe organic chocolate and Cream
  • How to make hand rolled Truffles, using the Ganache you just made
  • How to make Chocolate Brownies, featuring bean to bar chocolate from Birdsnake Chocolate.
  • How to make a Caramel sauce to serve with your Brownie & we shall plate up the Brownies with some seasonal fruit sourced from an Alphington Market stallholder.

This hand on class includes lots of tasting of chocolate and enjoying the brownies and truffles you make on the day. BYO a container to take any left overs home with you!

And we provide you with easy to follow recipes, so you can make these again at home.

This class is being held in the fantastic kitchen, at the home of the Alphington Kitchen. Shop early at the Market and then be at the side door of the kitchen a bit before ten am so we can kick off on time.
