 Chocolate Making Workshop for Four
Casanova called it the 'elixir of love'. French doctors used to prescribe it to women with broken hearts. Scientists say it stimulates the release of endorphins, the 'happy hormones'. Need we say more? This fabulous chocolate workshop begins with an informative talk on the history of chocolate, either by a master chocolatier, who served as the Head Pastry Chef at the Ritz Hotel in both London and Paris, or by an experienced chocolatier. Sample the chocolate fountain before you move onto the creative part of the workshop, making truffle fillings, then dipping your truffles into Belgian chocolate and decorating them with a variety of toppings and coverings. As a delicious memento of your experience you'll take home between 40 and 50 Belgian chocolates each, all wrapped, designed and made by you, to share with friends and family - or to save as a special treat.

More Information... |  Introduction to Bread Making
The smell of freshly baked bread has to be amongst the top ten best smells in the world, right up there with freshly mown grass. Contrary to popular belief, making your own bread doesn't have to be difficult and time consuming, turning out like a block of concrete after all your efforts. Or at least it won't by the time you've finished this experience. Join a top French baker and head chef who will show you the best way of lifting and folding your dough to create lots of air and therefore produce a lighter bread with less effort. More importantly, everything is taught using domestic equipment and appliances, meaning methods are easily duplicated at home, so you can turn your kitchen into a bakery whenever you like. Use your newfound skills to make a variety of breads from three different types of dough. Enjoy the results of your hard work by sitting down to lunch, including a well deserved glass of red or white wine.
