Hen Chocolate Making in Dublin

Chocoholics Dream - Truffle making 10 of us went to the Chocoholics Dream day for a Hen party. Overall very pleasant and we came away with lots of chocolate spoils! Nice intro about chocolate making, truffle techniques and lots of nice chocolate to play with. 1.)I would recommend that aprons are supplied. I DID ASK IN ADVANCE, but was told everything I needed would be supplied - no. No matter how neat you try to be, the chocolate & cocoa powder finds its way on your clothing. 2) Play more appropriate background music - sad & gloomy love songs when celebrating a pending wedding put a cloud on things. We all noticed it. 3)a little more attentiveness from our host. We didn't need babysitting, but we were left alone for long periods, tricky when supplies need replenishing, or if you had questions. Some of us would have liked to ask more about chocolate techniques and having an expert there was an opportunity.
