Celebrate Chocolate

Calling all chocolate lovers! Let's bake some of our favorite treats that will satisfy your need for a chocolate fix: Hot Cocoa coffee cake and chocolate ganache-filled S’Mores tart topped with meringue. In this hands-on class, we'll teach you a variety of vital baking techniques and versatile components, too! 

You'll leave the BAKE! class with our recipes, the knowledge to recreate them at home, and the Hot Cocoa cake and S'mores tart you made in class.

In-Person: We'll end class with a tasting of what we made and you'll go home with some great coupons.

Virtual: You'll need a stand mixer with a whip attachment or a hand-held mixer to make the meringue topping for the S'mores tart. A torch for toasting the meringue is helpfully delicious but not required. 

What our guests have to say about this class:

This was an ambitious class! We accomplished a great deal without feeling rushed or pressured to finish—the class moved along at a comfortable pace. My knowledge of baking methods and techniques continues to grow and I continue to be amazed by the level of instruction. —Dara K.

I knew absolutely nothing about baking before coming to this class and was quite nervous about being thrown into it, but the instructor did a wonderful job demonstrating everything in a totally understandable way. I feel far more confident! —William J.
