Certificate in Chocolate Tasting

Our ‘Chocolate Tasting Certificate’ courses are the core of our sensory chocolate curriculum. These courses will methodically take your through everything you need to know to gain a real appreciation of the world of craft chocolate bar tasting, from cacao varieties, genetics and production, through to chocolate making, recipes and origins.

Chocolate is one of the most complex foods we know. It’s flavour can be as sophisticated as wine or as nuanced as specialty coffee. Our structured learning approach will help you develop as a chocolate taster over time, whether you are a chocolate maker, an educator or communicator, a chocolate professional, enthusiast or if you just started your chocolate journey.

Origin study

The Origin Study program takes the subject of chocolate flavour study to a more detailed level, focusing on each cacao producing country – or region in larger countries. The program will give you the background and knowledge to fully understand the flavour profile of an origin based on its cacao genetics and introductions, climate, farming practices and the culture and history of the origin.
