Treat your senses to an unforgettable 2-hour workshop exploring the art of candle making and the flavors of premium craft chocolate. This unique event combines hands-on instruction from two local artisan companies - Lovela + Company and Madhu Chocolate.
In the first hour, Danielle Nichols of Lovela + Company will guide you through the process of pouring your own 12-ounce soy wax candle. You'll learn techniques for selecting the perfect fragrance blend, properly measuring wax, and crafting a beautifully customized candle to take home. All materials are provided, and you'll leave with a unique, eco-friendly candle that will fill your space with warmth and ambiance. For the candle pouring, please wear slacks/long skirt, long sleeves/cardigan, and closed-toe shoes. An apron and safety gloves will be provided.
Then, in the second half of the workshop, the chocolate makers of Madhu Chocolate will lead you on a tasting journey through their diverse, small-batch chocolate offerings. You'll discover the nuanced flavor profiles that result from Madhu's meticulous bean-to-bar process, exploring how factors like terroir, fermentation, and roasting techniques impact a chocolate's taste. The tasting will be accompanied by thoughtful discussion, allowing you to develop a deeper appreciation for the art of chocolate making.
Beyond the hands-on experiences, you'll also have the opportunity to enjoy a selection of wine and non-alcoholic beverages throughout the event. This unique workshop blends creativity, indulgence, and education, making it the perfect experience for chocolate lovers, candle enthusiasts, and anyone looking to explore their senses in a fun, memorable way.
