Mother's Day

What You’ll Do

Join Chef Danielle on a sweet exploration of some seriously divine and decadent chocolate truffles.

In this hands-on class, Chef Danielle will begin by discussing chocolate truffle techniques including emulsification, melting and tempering chocolate for enrobing, and rolled truffles. Armed with these techniques, you will learn how to whip up an impressive array of truffles using everyday flavors from your own kitchen.

Upon mastering a basic dark chocolate ganache, you'll explore white chocolate ganache with an earl grey or matcha infusion. You'll also make a hazelnut gianduja filling with Frangelico to be rolled in toasted hazelnuts. Finish with Chef Danielle's favorite — a savory salted caramel ganache.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Our pasta making class with Danielle was such a great experience! She engaged three generations of participants, the youngest of which were two 10-year-old boys and they LOVED it. One of the boys even commented that Danielle felt more like a good friend cooking with us! We learned a lot of new cooking tips (even those of us who are pretty avid cooks already), had lots of fun together and ate really well! Look forward to more chances to cook with her for sure.

Chef Danielle was knowledgeable about the recipes and the ingredients, and we learned quite a bit about the dishes we were preparing. The only improvement I would make would be to select recipes that do not take quite as much prep time. Food was delicious.
