Our Live/Box classes have been featured on The Guardian, TimeOut, GQ, Daily Mirror, The Metro, and more. Here's how it works:

1. Request your preferred time
2. We'll deliver a ClassBento Box to you - this is a physical DIY craft kit containing the materials you'll need. Shipping in the UK is free, and it should arrive within 3-5 business days. We ship nationwide.

During the class, you can easily ask questions and get immediate responses. Zoom is free and easy to use, on any device. You're in control of your privacy - you can mute yourself and hide your webcam if and when you prefer.

Learn how to make chocolate in this delicious live online class. With expert guidance from your chocolatier teacher, you'll make your own hand-rolled chocolate truffles and enjoy some chocolate tasting as you wait for them to set!

You'll be introduced to the art of chocolate making by friendly teacher and chocolate expert, Ellie. Then it'll be time to get stuck into crafting your homemade chocolate truffles by making a rich ganache. You'll soon get into the swing of chocolate making with this fun, messy and delicious class!

Once you've prepared the ganache for your chocolate truffles, you'll set it aside to cool and you'll start your chocolate tasting experience. Working your way through your lovingly packed craft box, you'll chat through flavour notes, cocoa production and different textures from seven of Studio Chocolate's range of single origins. Yes, that means you get to taste seven different types of chocolate!

After your chocolate tasting, you'll hand roll your ganache and add the finishing touches to your truffles. Your teacher will demonstrate how to box them up beautifully using the gift packaging from your craft box. Your finished chocolates will be perfect for a present for a loved one - or for you!

This chocolate making class is nut-free and gluten-free. It can be easily adapted to be
vegan/dairy-free - just let us know your requirements at check-out.

This is a relaxing and fun chocolate making experience and snacking and tasting is encouraged! By the end of your online chocolate workshop, you'll have learnt some brilliant new chocolate making skills and you'll have your own handmade truffles to lovingly gift or enjoy. You'll also be well versed in all things chocolatey so you can share your new knowledge with your friends and family.
