Learning to Make Chocolates in Maine

Learning to Make Chocolates in Maine

Last weekend we had Kate from Black Dinah Chocolatiers at the Inn to teach attendees how to make chocolates in Maine! This Holiday Chocolate Making class was very popular.  Participants received hands on instruction on the basic skills necessary for artisanal chocolate making.

Kate guided participants through tempering chocolate, flavoring and mixing ganache, dipping truffles, and multiple decorating techniques.  Everyone left with both chocolate bars and chocolate truffles that they had created themselves!   If this sounds like something you would enjoy, join us on January 22nd or 23rd for our Valentine’s Chocolate Making Class.  Kate will be back again with more fun recipes and techniques!  

For those of you looking for last minute holiday ideas and making chocolate by hand is out of the question, Black Dinah Chocolates make great gifts.  They are beautiful and delicious!
