My friend and I did a chocolate making class with a world class chocolate making expert Cathy!! Her knowledge about cocoa beans and how they are then turned into chocolate is incredible! We opted to use white chocolate and Cathy was very accommodating on that! My friend and I had a very hands experience, we got to temper the chocolate and make our own truffles- which melts in the mouth and enough to bring home to share!! We had so much fun and learnt soooo much! - I would definitely recommend Cathy’s classes! I have friends going to Brussels soon I will be sure to tell them about the amazing experience I had!

Cathy's in depth experience in the industry made it a fun, informative afternoon. No problem catering for gluten free member of the group. Highly recommended!One of my highlights in Brussels! Cathy was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, witty, and a blast to learn from! I’d rate it 6 stars if I could.
