Raw Chocolate Making
This Raw Chocolate making workshop, for adults and children, is part of a series of creative short workshops with Peggy Beer.
This workshop enables you to make the things you love in a natural way, with the knowledge of knowing exactly what ingredients are in the foods.
Homemade Raw Chocolate is also a great Christmas present!
The history of chocolate began in Mesoamerica. The Aztecs believed that cacao seeds were the gift of the god of wisdom and the seeds were once used as a form of currency. The Mayan culture used cacao in ceremonies and religious rituals.
The Workshop
The recipes will be provided as hand-outs from the tutor, to take home.
