Chocolate experience session

Misco’s is delighted to be able to offer a hands on and creative chocolate experience run by owner and chocolatier Meg Davies, with 11 years experience in the industry and a passion for sharing knowledge (and chocolate) Meg has created a friendly and welcoming session which will give you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of chocolate and try your hand at chocolate work. This course is designed for beginners and home bakers, age 16 plus.

Please note that due to our workshop being accessed via a set of stairs it is not accessible for wheelchairs or mobility issues, any questions about this please get in touch.

The 2 ½ hour session will be crammed full of chocolate knowledge, tasting, and making. You will learn about the different types of chocolate and a variety of ways that you can use it, you will learn how to temper chocolate using a variety of methods, truffle rolling and dipping and making a ganache. You will make, decorate and package up a selection of chocolatey treats to go home with.

The session will take place in Misco’s professional kitchen in Leek, Staffordshire, with a huge range of interesting ingredients to hand along with use of professional chocolatiering equipment and moulds, it’s a lovely space to get creative in. Groups will be kept to a maximum of 10, you are welcome to come with friends or family but will be made to feel very welcome if you come on your own.

If you are a professional baker or chocolate maker and would like to discuss a course tailored to your professional needs, such as learning to work with coloured ocoa butters, please do get in touch. Or if you would like to book a group session (8+) for a hen/stag do, party or corporate session drop me an email to discuss your requirements: meg@miscoschocolates.com

How it all began

Meg and Cisco set up Misco’s Chocolate accidentally in December 2011. After struggling to make ends meet they wanted to thank their family and friends with homemade gifts for Christmas. Never having made chocolates before but with a passion for good food they set out to make their first box of chocolates.

After great feedback, and with nothing to lose, they set up Misco's and did their first market stall in 2012. At times they had to choose between buying chocolate supplies for the next stall or food for the house (they confessed to eating a lot of chocolate at that time) and at the end of 2012 Cisco’s charismatic 80-year-old mother went onto Deal or no Deal and then invested a vital £1,000 into Misco's.

After 4 ½ years of travelling around Staffordshire and Cheshire doing markets and events, the opportunity came up for them to have a little shop in their home town of Leek. After 9 months they ran out of space and expanded into larger premises. 

Since then Misco's have gained national press which has enabled them to organically grow their loyal and ever expanding customer base and their online presence.

At the heart of Misco's is a family run business with ethical values and a small team passionate about bringing you little moments of magic.
