Workshops

Everything you need to know about our chocolate workshops: from booking to what to expect.
What workshops do you offer?

At Chocolate Nation, you can try your hand at being a chocolatier during one of our chocolate workshops.

Depending on the workshop format, you’ll learn more about chocolate, discover the basics of working with chocolate, and create your own chocolate creations under the guidance of a chocolatier. The workshops are open to both beginners and chocolate enthusiasts with a bit more experience.

We offer various options for individual visitors, families, groups, schools, and companies.

On our workshop page, you’ll find an overview of all current workshops, their duration, content, and available dates.

Do I need experience to participate in a workshop?

No. Our workshops are specially designed for beginners and require no prior knowledge or experience.

Under the guidance of a chocolatier, you’ll discover step by step how to work with chocolate and create your own chocolate creations. The most important ingredient? Enthusiasm.

Whether you’re working with chocolate for the first time or have spent plenty of time in the kitchen, our workshops are accessible, educational, and, above all, a lot of fun.

What is the minimum age to participate in a workshop?

We recommend a minimum age of 12 for our workshops.

Children are, of course, welcome, but we do ask that an adult be present to keep an eye on things. This way, we ensure that everyone can enjoy the workshop safely and worry-free.

Not sure if a workshop is suitable for your child or group? Contact us at workshops@chocolatenation.be. We’d be happy to help.

Can I book a private workshop?

In addition to our workshops on set dates, we can also organize private workshops for families, groups of friends, schools, and companies. Private workshops are available for groups of 10 or more participants.

Are you coming with fewer than 10 people? In that case, we can of course still organize a private workshop, but the minimum price for 10 participants will apply.

Contact us at workshops@chocolatenation.be for more information about availability, options, and rates.

Can I take the chocolate I make during a workshop home with me?

Of course. You can take home the chocolate creations you make during the workshop.

That way, you can not only look back on a fun and educational experience, but also enjoy your own creations at home or share them with family and friends.

Please note: the exact number and type of chocolate products depend on the workshop package you choose.

I’m allergic to gluten, nuts, and/or lactose and would like to book a workshop. Is that possible?

Do you have an allergy or intolerance? Be sure to let us know in advance when you make your reservation. That way, we can discuss your options together, and you can assess your personal risk and decide whether you can participate.

During the 1-hour workshop, you’ll be working with milk chocolate or dark chocolate. If you’re lactose intolerant, it’s best to choose dark chocolate. We’ll also be using various toppings, which the chocolatier will explain one by one at the start of the workshop.

The same principles apply to the 2-hour workshop. In this workshop, we’ll also be working with a gianduja filling. Gianduja is a mixture of milk chocolate, finely ground hazelnuts, and powdered sugar, so it’s not suitable for people with a nut allergy.

Although we try to accommodate allergies and intolerances as much as possible, we operate in an environment where various ingredients are processed. Therefore, we can never completely rule out the presence of traces.

Based on the information above, you understand that your visit to Chocolate Nation and your participation in the workshops are always at your own risk.
