We will discuss the medicinal properties of the herbs used to make the chocolate creations, so you will understand how you can make chocolates at home for your particular wellness goals. You will also have the chance to decorate chocolates with colorful plants at the end of class and will go home with a decorative box of three chocolate truffles that you decorate (if they make it out of class before being eaten)! These healthy chocolates make great gifts!\nNOTES: This is partially a hands-on workshop, as you will get to decorate pre-made chocolates (the actual chocolate making will be a demonstration in front of the class). Your event fee includes herbal tea to sip during the class, three chocolate truffles to taste during class, and three chocolates you make to take home. The chocolate you will take home will need to be refrigerated soon after the class.
