Why is Felchlin so cheap?
Posted in: Opinion
I am a June graduate of Ecolechocolate professional chocolatier class. I think the class was well worth the money and time investment. The instructors are very knowledgable and available for comment, questions, etc. And like all other classes/courses - if you follow the material, complete the lessons and do the required practicing, it has value. Because the instructions are so detailed and you are able to work at home with no classroom constraints, the opportunity to make mistakes and learn to correct them is invaluable. This type of opportunity is not presented in the typical classroom at a cooking school as you are expected to 'keep up'. The resource lists are valuable and extensive. I found the discussions from class mates fun and informative.I took the class only to learn with no intention of starting a business - I am one of those who is constantly looking for new challenges - and this was a certainly a challenge. I had worked some with chocolate, in baking and pastries, but the classes exposed me to a whole new dimension .Hope this is helpful.
