My name is Jeff Slaughter and for 14 years, my family and I lived in Brussels, Belgium – also known as ‘The Chocolate Capital of the World’. While living there, I became fascinated with fine chocolate and earned my professional chocolatier certification.
We now base in the United States where I run a seasonal chocolate business and share my interest in fine chocolate through live workshops and online courses. I enjoy teaching others how to work with fine chocolate and to appreciate some of the history, geography, science, math and vocabulary related to this fascinating topic.
Our ‘Chocolate School for Kids Online’ is great for:
- Children who love to cook and bake!
- Families to enjoy learning and making together
- And homeschool families seeking a creative ‘out of the box’ course that teaches a new skill.
In ‘Chocolate School for Kids Online’, your child will learn:
* The history of chocolate: from the Mayans to the Europeans to the Americans.
* The geography of chocolate: The special ‘ring around the world’ in which the cacao tree can survive and the countries that produce the cacao plant.
* The science of chocolate including the magical wonders of tempering chocolate.
* The math of chocolate which includes measuring and weighing using the British ‘Imperial’ system
* The vocabulary of chocolate: words that professional chocolatiers use.
Plus, I’ll teach your child how to:
* Temper chocolate (a necessary skill to work with fine chocolate.)
* Make a French chocolate treat called ‘mendiants’
* Dip marshmallows, cookies and pretzels
