Ana Aleksejeva25. September, 2022.I have attended two days Bonbons Intensive class which was an amazing experience! Amy is very knowledgeable, gave us so much information and tips on how to do shelling, capping, how to pair flavours, what to avoid when making bonbons, where to purchase ingredients and equipment and much more. I think this is a must to attend class for all the beginners and also for those who already have a bit of experience in making bonbons. I was very pleased with the result after the class, bonbons looked amazing and sooo delicious. Thank you Amy so much for these amazing two days!
steph buck13. July, 2022.Amy was such a fun teacher, chef, personality! Being 💯 new to her innovative brilliance with chocolate and the general concept of how to create flavor layering😬, Amy skillfully created an exciting duo session that suited the skills of my vegan chef friend and myself. When you book a private or small group session, know that you should allot some time to explore the beautiful countryside before or after your session with Amy!

Chocolate making is a magical experience
When children are learning how to make chocolates, their faces light up
and they brim with joy. It’s a magical enough experience for adults, but
for children it’s like an entire world has opened up to them.
Get your hands into chocolate making
This Children’s Chocolate Making Class is a 1.5-2 hour hands on class in Marlborough, Wiltshire. These classes are taught by professional chocolatier, Amy Levin from her home based professional kitchen. This class makes an excellent birthday party, or just as a weekend experience. Children love discovering the secrets of chocolate making and learning new, exciting skills.
What to expect…
Lots of tasters
There’s plenty of chocolate tasting throughout the class and the children will learn a little bit about flavour development and how to make their chocolate taste amazing with just a few pro tips. This is an experiential process of tasting and adjusting the recipe in real time, so they get the immediate understanding of how it all works.
Truffles
We’ll make some easy truffles that the kids will pipe into a silicone mould and, once set, they dip in chocolate and decorate them as they please using a variety of finishing touches available – this includes all natural sprinkles, chopped nuts, gold or silver powder or cocoa powder.
Chocolate Bars
The children will make fun chocolate that have the textures on the surface. These are fun to make and allow their creativity to run wild!
Take Aways
The children will take home a box of chocolates, made by them!
All chocolates are dairy, wheat, gluten and refined sugar free.

The Local Area
The thriving town of Marlborough and the neighbouring pretty village of Manton are set in the stunning scenery of the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There’s countryside within 10 minutes walk of the High Street in almost any direction, and downland, stone circles and ancient Savernake Forest are literally on our doorstep and the River Kennet chalk stream flows through the town centre.
The town has remained unspoiled, retaining its historic charm and is perfectly situated on the old Bath Road (built by order of the Kings of England) linking Bath to London – the Great West Way is a rich and enticing route for visitors to explore to this day. A favourite watering hole for coach & horses travellers in the past, Marlborough is a cosmopolitan destination today continuing to welcome visitors from all over the world.
