The Chocolatier Fruit and Nut Masterclass is an online, three week* program of intensive, interactive training. It includes live demonstrations of best practices/techniques in successfully using fruit and nut ingredients in your chocolate bonbons and bars, as well as live group discussions and guided recipe work in your own kitchen. By the end of the program, you'll learn to perfect your use of fruit purees, pate de fruit, nut pastes, and pralines to achieve the most flavorful combinations and textures. The recipes and techniques in this program are especially helpful for those chocolatiers creating vegan chocolates and plant-based, non dairy chocolate recipes.Click on link here.
