Learn about Chocolate
Learning is the only thing the mind never exhausts, never fears, and never regrets. So join a melt experience and learn all about chocolate. Chocolate is both the best known and the least known food on earth.
Chocolate covers an enormous range of different types of food, from 100 per cent raw cocoa all the way to white chocolate, which has greater similarity to a sweet than it does to proper chocolate. From a bitter-tasting live drink, with energising and aphrodisiacal properties, used for religious rituals to a sweet creamy caramel chocolate made by machines in a modern industrial factory. The variety of chocolate is actually quite astonishing. Chocolate also has changed dramatically over time and by location – think of American chocolate versus European chocolate.
The journey chocolate takes from the Amazon to your kitchen table is amazing – but little understood or known. Melt’s Chocolate Path follows this journey all the way to Chocolate transcendence. You will see for yourself the transformation of chocolate from “bean-to-bar” or “bean-to-bonbon”. Enjoy learning about chocolate. Melt’s experiences and workshops aim to teach you all there is to know about chocolate whilst you enjoy tasting it and whilst you enjoy transforming it in a “hands-on experience” and practical experience.

Chocolate Immersion
Travel through time and taste history
Lets wind back the clock to a time when chocolate was worshipped – when chocolate was considered sacred and was the preserve of only society’s elites – high priests and the Royal Courts.
The process of transforming chocolate from bean-to-bar will have a life changing impact on you. Many of our clients leave our classes with lessons that will last a life time. “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn” – so immerse yourself in chocolate and learn how to achieve transcendence through chocolate.

Chocolate Metamorphosis
Join Melt on its mission to put chocolate back on its pedestal as the “food of the gods”. To re-establish chocolate in its rightful place as one of the the world’s greatest foods and one of America’s greatest gifts to the world.
Sacred Chocolate
Melt aims is to reconnect people back to sacred chocolate and in so doing – reconnect you to your ancient ancestors. Ancestors that knew the importance of community, conversation and would congregate around great tasting food. Slow down and enjoy the simple things in life – the key to a melt workshop. Letting chocolate melt slowly in your mouth – is the very essence of Melt and origin of our brand.
