In just 2 hours, participants will embark on a journey through time: exploring the history of the cacao tree, uncovering myths, and understanding the significant role cacao and chocolate played in Mesoamerican cultures. Naturally, chocolate-making is part of the experience. From sampling the raw fruit (when available) to roasting, grinding, and separating the shell from the nibs, participants will work like professionals crafting award-winning chocolate. They’ll discover some of the incredible medicinal uses of chocolate before creating their own chocolate ‘medicine’ to take home. Finally, they’ll temper freshly poured molten chocolate and craft their own bar to wrap and savor later.
