Our family had a wonderful time. Elise was engaging with both us and our daughters. The process was familiar, since the girls are quite well versed in making pastries back home. But it was neat to have some more advanced techniques, great ingredients, and a wonderful hostess. The chocolate tasting we had while waiting for our treats to set was delightful, and we didn’t feel pressured to buy (as can often be the case on other vendor-hosted experiences).

Chocolate-making class led by Krishna

Milos_N, Dec 2024

I recently attended a chocolate-making class led by Krishna, and it was an extraordinary experience! Krishna is an exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable teacher, and his passion for chocolate-making truly shines through. The class was conducted in French, but the English translation provided was incredibly helpful since I don’t speak French. Krishna was very patient, ensuring that everyone understood each step of the process. His explanations were clear, and he created a hospitable and welcoming environment that put everyone at ease. The overall atmosphere was pleasant and playful, making the experience both fun and educational. I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in the art of chocolate-making!

Not worth it and not as described

Tal_G, May 2024

We are a couple visiting Paris. For the last day of the trip we booked the "Technical Chocolate Making Workshop in Paris" through the Viator website. We were quite excited to learn new techniques to work with chocolate. We expected a 1.5-hour workshop in which we would learn how to temper chocolate (including practical work and new techniques) and create pralines and ganaches using molds (as shown in the workshop pictures on the Viator website). In reality, the workshop lasted for only an hour, during which we made a simple praline and nothing except form balls by hand (from a mass the instructor made in front of us) dip them in chocolate and a coating of our choice. It felt like it was planned for kids, in fact - the instructor was surprised we took the workshop as per her quote "it is usually done by families with kids". The posting completely misled us into believing we would do something other than what we did, there was nothing technical or interesting about it and if we had known that would be the nature of the workshop we would have never booked it to begin with. A total waste of time and money. Just to be clear, the staff who held the workshop were very nice and attentive and we have zero complaints about them personally.

The workshop was fine,...

Paulina_B, May 2023

The workshop was fine, but there was nothing technical about it. The chocolate was already tempered and the teacher was quite distracted. Also there was little space. For 6 it’s been already quite crowded.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Hello Paulina, I'm so sorry to hear that you didn't have a good experience in our workshop! Usually classes of six people are fun and dynamic and there is a lot to learn. I will certainly follow up with our chocolatier to be sure this doesn't happen again. If ever you are back in Paris, please don't hesitate to stop by for a complementary chocolate tasting! If I am in the boutique, I would be happy to answer any of your technical questions remaining.

A short and sweet tour

Response from Host, May 2023

Aww thanks Lars! The time flew by for us too. You were amazing guests. Can't wait to see you on your next visit for another chocolate class!

Great for families with kids

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Great Hands-On Class

Ken_S, Jun 2022

Class was great - really impressed with what we made (both the technique and the taste). Instructor was a bit distracted, but we were happy with the process and our results.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Hi Ken, I'm glad you were happy with your creations, and all of the technique you learned! Enjoy the rest of your time in Paris.

Thanks Elise!

Jasmin_F, May 2022

We would like to thank Elise for this nice chocolate making experience. Had a lot of fun! Also the tasting was nice! The japanese buckwheat chocolate is incredible. Highly recommended this workshop and the tasting 😊
