NEW ‘Family & Friends’ Package at The Sydney Chocolate School

Sydney Chocolate School

Established in 2011, over 15,000 chocolate lovers have now mastered the art of ‘tempering’ at The Sydney Chocolate School.

Now your Group of 8 or more family and friends can spend time on a Saturday afternoon, learning about the processing of chocolate from bean to bar and making your very own chocolate goodies to take home… and the cost is just $80 per person with our new ‘Friends & Family’ Package. In fact, it’s less than that. For all November and December bookings made by November 1st, the organiser receives complimentary entry.

In your 90 minute lesson at The School, overlooking the Harbour at beautiful Middle Head, you and your friends will make your own chocolate slab, chocolate bar and flaked hot chocolate… all of which you can take home to savour at a later time. We’re fully licensed, so after your lesson, you’re welcome to top off the afternoon with a glass of champagne on our deck with its beautiful harbourside views.

The new ‘Friends & Family’ Package is only available on weekends from 2:00pm to 3:30pm. Get your group together today.

A Pilu and Coco collaboration!

Pilu & Coco Chocolate

During the Cortes Apertas (Open Doors) Festival in Sardinia, artisans open their homes to celebrate their work in food, wine and the arts. In collaboration with Chef Giovanni Pilu of Pilu at Freshwater, Coco Chocolate has now opened the door to a whole new taste experience – the sweetest of culinary journeys.

Our new Cortes Apertas range celebrates rosemary, orange, sage, coffee, spices, honey, almonds and dates, all lovingly embedded in Domori Supreme Chocolate – a ‘single origin chocolate’ among the most pure produced, anywhere in the world.

The Domori story itself is a gem of Italian gastronomic heritage, stemming from the time Gianluca Franzoni landed in Venezuela in 1993 and became fascinated by what he termed ‘the magic of cacao’. For years Franzoni lived on Venezuelan plantations, working on a plan to launch a business focussed on bringing to market Criollothe highest quality, most rare and prized of all cacao. He called his business Domori – representing Venezuela’s two dark, toasted beans: coffee and cacao.

Franzoni’s passion led to Domori recuperating heritage varieties, helping conserve the biodiversity of cacao and actually halting the very extinction of Criollo. Even today, the annual quantity of Criollo produced with a purity (or cocoa mass) of 90%, represents less than 0.001% of world cacao production.

This story, told by Chef Pilu to our Chief Chocolatier Rebecca Kerswell, has led to the creation of a range that makes chocolate a gourmet food – a rare product with an aromatic richness comparable to a fine wine or top quality coffee – now, yours to savour.
