Don’t just eat it... live it! Chocolate is something quite magical for many; besides being unreasonably delicious and a big endorphin trigger, good quality dark chocolate is packed with antioxidants, flavanoids and mono-unsaturated fats, and can help reduce blood pressure and stimulate the libido. So it makes perfect sense to learn about such a valuable substance by taking a trip to Belgium, historically renowned for the quality of its chocolate.
With l’Ecole Chocolat, for example, you can undertake a very serious three-day course at the Barry Callebaut Chocolate Academy as part of a five-day package, giving you time to explore Brussels, another Belgian city or even ‘Chocolate World’, a huge equipment emporium and workshop for chocolatiers. During the three days of classes, you will be taught not only how to design, create and taste your own chocolates but also about the very precise chemistry required for the immaculate balance of ingredients, and how to achieve consistent results.
The Barry Callebaut chocolate company has been manufacturing and exporting chocolates throughout the world for more than 150 years so whether you’re an amateur enthusiast or want to hone your skills, you will have guidance from a real expert. They also have chocolate academies in six other countries if you’d like to apply independently or study closer to home; after all, it’s entirely in the interests of your health...
