Chocolate Masterclass
The RSC Mid-Southern Counties local section is pleased to invite you on a Chocolate Masterclass, organised by "Chocolates with Miss Witt," to be held in Lymington, Saturday 10th October 2026, from 10:30am - 12:30pm.
Our masterclass teacher, Miss Kerry Witt, will guide us on a fascinating journey of how chocolate is made, from tree to bar. As part of the course, participants will enjoy a guided tasting of a range of chocolates - including white, milk and dark varities - while exploring how terrior, origin and cacao variety influence the flavour profile of chocolate.聽
Participants will also learn how to make chocoalte truffles using two different methods. Firstly, we will create rustic truffles, followed by truffles made using profressional truffle shells. Next, we will move onto hand-tempering chocolate on marble slabs. We will discuss why tempering is essential, focusing on the formationof stable cocoa butter crystals and the effect this has on the appearance, texture and shelf life of chocolate. Participants will also create chocolate orange shards using cocoa butter transfer sheets.聽
At the end of the masterclass, participants will leave with two boxes of chocolate truffles and a few bags of your handmade chooolate orange shards.聽
There will be tea and coffee to enjoy on arrival at the class, followed by a pub lunch and quic at the Old Mill Pub and Dining next to the workshop venue.聽
