Claire Clarke27. September, 2022.I've attended several of Amy's classes both in-person and online and I've thoroughly enjoyed the classes. Amy's recipes, attention to detail, and outstanding knowledge, teamed with the friendly and supportive atmosphere that she creates makes the experience absolutely brilliant. I very much recommend attending one of Amy's classes.
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!

Have Fun Making Easter Eggs This Year
Easter is an exciting time for chocolate! We get to make Easter Eggs, big or small,
and decorate them with fun techniques and methods. If you enjoy working
with your hands and being crafty, you’re going to enjoy making these.
Learn how to make your own Easter Eggs this year
In this 1.5 hour livestream class, you’ll learn how to design and fill 100mm Easter Eggs with truffles, or whatever you’d like. 🙂
What we’ll cover in this class…
Design / Colouring
We’ll use naturally coloured cocoa butters to design our Easter Eggs. For this marble design, we don’t use any tools, just our fingers. It’s a lot like finger painting, but, if you have experience with colouring chocolate, you’ll know we do the colouring in reverse to how you’d paint a canvas. So I’ll show you how to control the ‘paint’ and get the effect you’re looking for. In this class we’ll be working with a larger palette of colours than I usually do; blue, green, turquoise, white, purple, red and pink.
Shelling
Once the moulds are painted, it’s time to shell the mould. This can pose questions for people around how much chocolate to use for the shell, how to know how much to use/you’ll need, how to get the shell thickness that you’re looking for, and so on. We’ll go through all of these points in the class.
Sealing / Fusing The Eggs
In order to get that 3D egg, rather than it having one flat side, we’ll need to connect the two halves together. There are several ways to do this, but in class we’ll connect the two eggs by fusing them together. In this case, we’ll need to form a thick edge. I’ll show you the tips and tricks I have learnt to get that edge you need without it cracking or breaking during the shelling process.
Filling The Eggs / Chocolate Truffles
Before fusing, you can fill the eggs with nuts, small chocolates, candies, love notes, soft fillings, etc… In this class, we’ll make some easy chocolate truffles, enrobe them and then fill the eggs with these before connecting them.

Of course, you have all recipes and a recording of the class to refer back to whenever you want.
