Adult Class Hand Tempering And Chocolate Making

Coco Chocolate produces chocolate at their harbour side Sydney studio at Middle Head, which opens to the public Friday to Sunday by appointment as The Sydney Chocolate School. Coco uses organic chocolate couverture for production of their award winning chocolates; including GOLD at The Great Taste Awards.

All cacao couverture sourced for tempering at Coco Chocolate is ethical and producers are members of SEDEX, ensuring ethical and responsible practices in labour standards (including employment conditions, profitable income for farmers, supporting community development projects and no child labour), health and safety, the environment and business ethics.

As a result all can enjoy Coco Chocolate – creating value for all through the supply chain with transparency, traceability, productivity and quality.

Coco Chocolate is made by our artisan chocolatiers in Australia using the finest ingredients. Chocolate is traditionally hand tempered on marble. The range of award winning chocolates are created with the finest fruits, nuts, liqueurs and Herbies spices & peppers.

Coco Chocolate couverture cacao masses range for all palettes, including blends with 37% cacao, 55% cacao, 68% cacao, 74% cacao, 80% cacao, 90% cacao and 99% cacao mass (which has no sugar or any alternative sweetener at all) . We are advocates of organic farming, ethically traded chocolate and non GM ingredients.

Rebecca Knights grew up in Sydney before travelling to Europe to train as a chocolatier, including at the prestigious school Valrhona in France. Rebecca opened her first chocolate studio and retail store in the UK to be close to Europe to continue to be inspired by European masters.

After ten years and creating a range of chocolates for the prestigious Harvey Nichols in London, the desire to come home was too strong and Rebecca now is the creative director for the Coco Studio and The Sydney Chocolate School, developing all of the Coco Chocolate recipes and showcasing at the Coco flagship store in Kirribilli.

The beautiful store in Kirribilli offers you a French inspired environment to relax and enjoy the stunning chocolates. Allow our trained staff to explain the chocolates from bean to bar and serve twelve varieties of hand flaked drinking chocolates and Sacred Grounds organic, fair trade coffee to enjoy in-house

We are proud to be sold throughout David Jones stores in Australia, Accoutrement Mosman, Harris Farm nationwide and a series of independent stores specialising in fine food or artisan gifts.
