Chocolate Courses
5 Day Course
The Essential
Slattery Chocolate Experience
We have received lots and lots of requests for more in-depth
chocolate courses and so here it is… The Essential Chocolate
Experience - a 5 day course of nothing but working with
chocolate!
This course will ideally suit the person with little or no
experience of working with chocolate, as it will start from the
very basics. You will learn how to correctly temper the
chocolate using a variety of different methods. You will
become familiar with the ways to handle and work with
chocolate as well as receiving ‘Tips & Hints’ on quicker, tried
and tested methods that the professionals use.
The course will allow you to gain hands on experience of
working with moulds in order to create small moulded
chocolates as well as larger chocolate figurines and decoration
pieces. You will create a range of fillings including ganaches
and fondants as well as pralines etc.
The course will cover making a large variety of hand-finished
chocolates including truffles, rochas, pretzels, knackerli and
hand dipped pralines, which are all quick and easy to produce
- when you know how!
You will refine your skills and learn about creating chocolates
using more delicate and unusual flavours. Imagine being
able to use herbs and spices to create exotic tasting chocolates
including coriander, lavender, cardamom, juniper and even
curry.
One of the most important things you will learn is how to
create individual and personalised chocolates - a must if you
intend to set up in a professional business.
We will devote a good amount of time to the cutting, shaping
and creation of chocolate cakes and decoration pieces.
You will learn how to coat cakes with chocolate and coating
sauces that could be used for birthdays, weddings or simply
as an extravagant dessert. By the end of the course you will
be able to create chocolate “cigarillo” curls, ruffles, shards
and fans – all of which can be used to create elaborately
decorative cakes or can be used as simpler decorations on
tortes and gateaux. By learning how to colour cocoa butter
and spray chocolate you will be able to achieve highly unusual
and striking effects.
Some time will be devoted to the fundamentals of running
a successful chocolate business. This will cover packaging
ideas and sources, legal requirements for labelling and selling
products as well as getting the most from your products by
learning effective display methods.
By covering elements from all our popular chocolate courses
you will take away a rounded working knowledge of chocolate.
You will also learn techniques and receive information on
ideas that are not covered on any of our other courses – so
this really is the course for anyone who is serious about
working with chocolate...

CORPORATE TEAM BUILDING / CORPORATE EVENTS
A chocolate workshop is a super way to reward a team for a ‘job well done’ or to bond a new
group of people. During our tailor made chocolate days, your team can simply have fun
creating chocolate items or have a more challenging time, thinking about each other while
engaging in friendly competition. Standard sessions are 3 and half hours, however we can
create longer or shorter sessions to suit your needs.
The chocolate session can be built into a full day with us, which can include using our conference
room for a meeting or a private lunch. We are very flexible so if you have specific needs or
an idea you would like to implement, we will do our best to accommodate all requests.
