Top Mexico Sweet Making Classes

Mexican Gastronomy was recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in November 2010, by UNESCO. For me, it is a pleasure to show part of the Mexican cultural heritage; based on traditional recipes with a contemporary twist. If travelers so wish, they are taken on a tour of the local market where they can view fresh produce at its best. We will teach them to make the most traditional dishes of Mexican cuisine, where they will be able to use techniques inherited from generations.

The churro classes are a hands-on experience where you learn about the history of churros, how to prepare the dough from scratch, and then practice using a churro machine to make your own churros. Participants can experiment with shapes, including letters and numbers, and enjoy creating and tasting their freshly made churros. We use Google Translate, but if you need a more professional translator, let us know.

Immerse yourself in an authentic experience around traditional Oaxacan cocoa and chocolate, guided by a native Oaxaca chocolatier with deep ancestral knowledge. In this practical workshop you will learn about the cultural origin of cocoa, its historical relevance in Mexico and the artisan process that transforms the bean into chocolate, as it has been done for generations. Throughout the experience, you will work directly with cocoa beans: you will learn to roast, hull, grind and refine cocoa, while discovering its unique aromas, textures and flavors. The workshop places special emphasis on Oaxacan traditions and the cultural value of chocolate as food, ritual and living heritage. To close the experience, you will make your own Oaxacan chocolate bar, molded and packed by you, which you can take with you as a memory of genuine, sensory and deeply connected learning with the earth and its people.
