Dubai Chocolate Bars and Truffles with Davenport's Chocolates

The trend for Dubai chocolate has taken the nation by storm in recent months, and following the popularity of our July workshop (it was sold out within a couple of days of going on sale), we thought we'd better get another date in the diary!

This workshop will be a little different; as well as making your own Dubai chocolate bars, you will also get to make your own Dubai chocolate truffles - double the amount of treats.

Lead by chocolatier Jane Williams, you will be treated to a few insights to her career as a chocolatier as you enjoy a welcome drink and a generous taste of her chocolates.

This is going to be a chocolate skills lead session, so it will be focus on the following main techniques:

• how to make a filled chocolate bar in 4 stages (decorating the mould, making the hollow shell, piping the filling inside, sealing the bar)
• cocoa butter colour decoration. From learning 'splatter' techniques to painting skills, melted cocoa butter can transform the moulds with colour and style. Make your chocolate bars unique by learning how to use melted cocoa butter colous to perfection.
• learning a variety of methods to decorate truffles: dry rolling, inclusion rolling, and pure chocolate rolling.

You will be using one of the best pistachio pastes on the market, used by top end chocolatiers, so you can expect a high level of flavour and crunch to hit all the spots that this Dubai chocolate trend does so well.

As always, you will get to enjoy plenty of chocolates on the night, unlimited tea & coffee, and as always you will of course be able to take your creations home with you.

We hope you will be able to join us for this fun new session,
