Have you ever wanted to make chocolate?


In this course, you'll learn just that. How to make chocolate from raw beans into a chocolate bar. With professionally recorded videos to lead you step by step, I've designed this course to be done in your home kitchen using everyday items like a hair dryer, rolling pin, and a sheet pan alongside industry standard equipment like a melanger. If you've never made chocolate before, that's ok. I'll be taking you through this process as if you've never done it before and you can always rewatch any of the videos.

This course will give you a foundation that you can start building on to make your own chocolate to use in cakes and treats your whole family will love. It is also a perfect recipe for a well polished chocolate bar to be enjoyed bit by bit. So you can dig in deeper, enrolling in the course will also give you access to our closed Intro-2-Chocolate Making Facebook group that’s exclusive to our students. You will be in a community with other students where you can ask questions and share your chocolate making experiences.

You can do this by yourself or with your family. The whole process takes 24-48 hours so treat yourself to a nice weekend of making chocolate.

This self-led course is for you if:

  • You've never made chocolate before
  • You love chocolate
  • You've always thought the process for making chocolate was complicated
Below are some estimated prices for the ingredients and tools needed to make chocolate.  Again, the course was designed to use tools many of you will have in your kitchen already.  The chocolate refiner is the one tool most of you will not have.  In the attached PDF I’ll give you links to two different refiners; one company is offering a discount code.  The other chocolate specific tool many do not have in their kitchen is a polycarbonate mold.  It’s not required to make chocolate.  You can choose to pour your tempered chocolate into a sheet pan and break the chocolate into pieces like chocolate bark.  However, to make chocolate bars a bar mold is required.  The attached PDF will also include links to all the tools you will need to have access to in order to make chocolate with us from raw cocoa bean to finished chocolate bar.
For this course have on hand at least:
  • 5kg bag of raw cocoa beans $68.50 
  • 1 lb. bag of cocoa butter $10.00
  • Unrefined Cane sugar $10.00
Equipment
  • Melanger (refiner) $300
  • Polycarbonate molds $10-$15 each or use a sheet pan

The 6 Step Process for Making Chocolate


Lesson One: Sort
In lesson one, you'll learn one of the most important steps in the whole process, how to choose the best beans for your chocolate.

Lesson Two: Roast
For lesson two, we need to start developing the flavor of the beans. Don't forget the oven mitts!

Lesson Three: Crack & Winnow
During the third lesson, we need to separate the nib from the husk, this is a fun process that the kids will love.

Lesson Four: Refine
Now we can turn all of our raw ingredients into luscious liquid chocolate. Combining everything in our melanger.

Lesson Five: Temper, Mold & Cool
Once our chocolate is refined, we need to make it presentable so you can wow your friends and family with the professional looking chocolate.

Lesson Six: Package
Finally, lets put that iconic gold foil on our chocolate to make your chocolate look as good as it tastes!
