Join an exclusive, two-day chocolate-making workshop in Budapest this January 2026 and head home with your own creations. Across focused sessions, dive into the craft from cacao bean to bonbon. White chocolate takes the stage on January 9–10, while dark chocolate headlines January 21–22 and January 24–25. Venue: 1039 Budapest, Huba Street (Huba utca) 3. Dates and programs may change.
White chocolate weekend: January 9–10
Day one eases you into the foundations: explore chocolate varieties and the theory behind roasting, conching, tempering, and crafting. Then roll up your sleeves with what’s on hand: cast your own bars, mold bite-sized chocolates, fill bonbons, and create elegant chocolate decorations. To close the day, everyone builds a white chocolate base together in the conche, setting the stage for day two.
On the second morning, the white chocolate you assembled is ready from the conche. You’ll experiment with multiple tempering methods—marble-slab tempering, seeding, and cocoa butter techniques—using your freshly made chocolate. Drawing on day-one skills, you’ll choose your favorite methods to craft a personal lineup of chocolate products. Yes, you’ll take these home.
Dark chocolate weekends: January 21–22 and January 24–25
The dark chocolate track mirrors the white chocolate flow, tailored for lovers of cacao intensity. Day one covers the same essential theory—roasting, conching, tempering—and hands-on practice with stocked chocolates: press bars, shape small bites, fill bonbons, and design chocolate décor. The day wraps with a group-built dark chocolate base in the conche.
By the next morning, your dark chocolate is conched and ready. You’ll test tempering styles—marble-slab, seeding, cocoa butter—then lean into the techniques you enjoyed most to produce your own dark chocolate collection: bars, bonbons, and artistic pieces. These are yours to keep and show off.
