This class is will also set you up with the skills to actually make bean-to-bar chocolate at home with your own equipment, as well as an extensive tasting of the chocolates they make at Raaka. Lest we forget, you'll go home with a bag of your own mini dark chocolates!
From tasting, making, decorating, and of course, savoring, a day spent at Raaka is pure bliss!
Brooklyn's Raaka Chocolate factory is the home of indulgence with a passionate history. When Founder Ryan Cheney was introduced to raw chocolate on a beach in Thailand, it was love at first bite. He mastered the bean-to-bar basics, teamed up with friend & fellow gastronome Nate Hodge, and Raaka Chocolate was born.
Raaka builds each artisanal creation from scratch with single-origin cocoa in its Brooklyn factory. Creative methods range from steaming cacao nibs over simmering red wine and aging cacao in bourbon casks to making bars with whole coconut shreds, smoked chai, or ghost peppers. Raaka always brings out the best in each bean.
Experience the world's favorite treat like never before via the chocolate bar making class! Start from scratch, choosing the single origin cacao beans you fancy. Next, you'll winnow, grind and mill, temper, pour, and voila - chocolate bars! They'll also set you up with the skills to actually make bean-to-bar chocolate at home, not to mention tasting of their other chocolate goodies!
You'll even take home a bag filled with your own mini dark chocolates, as well as a new appreciation for this sweet delicacy. Yum!

New Yorkers adore Raaka's creations, giving them an amazing 4.6 stars from 110+ reviews on Yelp including:
"Got a pulsd for the chocolate making class and was very impressed. You really get to learn all of the details of how they make their chocolate and the history of how they got started. Then you get to pour and flavor 3 of your own bars, which alone are worth the price of admission."
If I could give a million stars I would!! Had an awesome time. Our instructor, Esteban, was really wonderful! Blown away. We will be seeking another opportunity to experience another class when we can. Sincere gratitude to the Raaka crew!"
"I did the chocolate-making class that includes a tour of the factory. It was a really great experience. We learned all about chocolate, and we even made our own chocolate bars. Plus got to taste samples and develop our taste buds a bit!"
May purchase as many classes as you like for personal use or for gifting.
