A fun hands-on class where you'll learn to make chocolates, in a real chocolate factory. This class is only for private groups!
The children will experience the magic of creating personalized chocolates with their own hands. This is an ideal party activity as the kids will not only end up with chocolate on their faces but also their own chocolates to take home – if they last that long!
The experience begins with a brief history of chocolate, then a chocolate tasting to taste the difference between compound and couverture chocolate. Then onto the best part - diving into the actual chocolate making! The kids will make their own moulded chocolate, with each child choosing from an array of fun moulds.
A special box is given to each chocolate maker so they can package their creations to take home. They'll be guided by our chocolatier, though they'll also have space to indulge their creativity and imagination.
While we wait for the chocolate to set, the kids will be shown how to dip and decorate marshmallows and Turkish Delights. They'll demonstrate their artistic talents with piping bags.
We recommend at least one or two adults to come along to share the joy (of herding the kids, and of the workshop itself ). Older kids (eg high school age) will enjoy this class too. The class content and teaching style will be adjusted to suit the age of the participants.
And if you'd like to share a birthday cake during the class, we can make time and space for that too. This class can also be held at a location of your choice (extra fee will apply).
Kimberley Chocolates was established in 1994 by Joseph Atallah BSc (Food Science) with the aim of producing good quality chocolate and making it accessible to the general public. At that time in Sydney, very little good quality chocolate was being made and Joseph’s idea of combining couverture chocolate with ingredients such as lemon myrtle, quandong and chilli proved very successful.
Selling at markets and shows as well as from the Leichhardt factory, Kimberley Chocolates’ range of chocolate truffles quickly became sought after and Joseph rapidly gained a reputation as an innovative chocolatier with a wealth of knowledge that he was willing to share.
With appearances on TV and in other media outlets, customers became keen to not only taste his product, but to learn more about chocolate. Firstly, Joseph established Chocolate Appreciation Classes and the success of these informative sessions lead to the demand for hands-on Chocolate Workshops.
Participants of the workshops love learning the secrets of chocolate truffle making and enjoy being able to take their handmade creations home with them along with the know-how of how to replicate them in the comfort of their own kitchen.
Since 2004, Joseph has run hundreds of chocolate-making workshops for thousands of budding chocolatiers, including children’s parties, schools, adults, couples, friends, hen’s parties, corporate teams, and not-for-profit groups.
In 2017, wanting to add more unique experiences, science and chemistry-obsessive Joseph established Kimberley Perfume and perfume and fragrance-making workshops commenced.
Kids just love cooking; the creativity, the tools, the experimentation, getting their hands in and of course, the end product! We specialise in cooking with kids (sometimes adults too) and our class sizes are kept uniquely small so that they are not just stir-a-bowl or watching lessons but instead;
Here at Sydney Cooking School we offer fun and creative kids cooking classes during the School Holidays. Kids will be entertained and inspired with our hands-on approach, making various items such as sushi, pizza and decorating cup cakes!Â
We’re leveling up our class for ages 12+ with classic desserts and breads that require a little more finesse. Kel will teach you all about the science of baking and how to add something extra special to each of these.
Our Kid's School Holidays Classes are our most popular and book out months in advance. So, what are you waiting for, check out the classes currently available.
