You'll go home with a box of the truffles that you made in class, along with new skills and information to make your own delicious chocolate truffles at home! Treat yourself...
"Charlie & The Chocolate Factory" by way of Brooklyn, indeed! The 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.
Learn how to make your own batch of French-style dark chocolate truffles using their in-house dark chocolate ganache, handmade by the head chocolate maker. Cut and hand roll your own set of truffles, learn to temper your own chocolate to coat the truffles, and finally roll them in classic and seasonal toppings.
Their cacao is sourced from Tanzania, Uganda & the Dominican Republic, supporting healthy communities and sustainability, so your sweets come with an even sweeter mission! Plus, head home with your truffles, alongside your newly found talents to re-create the fun!
Happy, chocolatey memories are just waiting to be made...

Raaka shines with a delicious 4.6 Stars from 105+ 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!"
"My husband and I had so much fun at Raaka. We did their class. We learned so much about the principals and techniques. The instructor was really knowledgeable, friendly and professional. The chocolates taste so good at all different stages! We look forward to returning."
May purchase as many classes as you like for personal use or for gifting.
