Yesterday, we had our first chocolate workshop with 5 future Chocolatiers and our 2 teachers: Daphne and Armando.
The workshop was a real success and the chocolate factory was really well decorated and prepared for welcoming our first customers.
During this workshop, Daphne explained them about the Cacao tree, the Cacao pods and how we obtain fermented cacao beans, the base for making a delicious chocolate.
Then everybody toasted the cacao beans on a comal in one of the patio and then pealed the cacao beans.
We prepared a cacao husk tea for everybody with the cacao husk. We then ground the cacao nibs to obtain a thick paste that we used for preparing different types of chocolate drinks (hot, cold nd Mayan style).
Finally, we had prepared some well-ground pure cacao paste for people to prepare their own chocolate adding sugar, vanilla, peanuts, cashews, coffee beans, almonds...
At the end of the chocolate workshop, everybody is going to leave with 16 chocolate that they made themselves.
We are now waiting for other future "chocolatier" and have some more fun preparing good organic chocolate.
