11 March 2018 - 00:00 By Chrizelle Fourie

1. Childhood memories Eating chocolate brings back the most amazing childhood memories and it's the one thing that can make you feel young forever.
2. Happiness Some people like sugar and others like bread. I simply love chocolate for the art of it. I'm intrigued that it can take up to 72 hours to create the perfect chocolate bar.
3. Nothing says it like chocolate Whether you are happy or sad or simply seeking a gift for a loved one or friend, chocolate is suited for every occasion.
4. Versatile I love how versatile chocolate is in recipes and how you can mould and shape it into incredible artworks - and it can be served either as a sweet or savoury.
5. Sensual You can use all of your senses for chocolate - smell the sweet aroma, see the shine, hear the crisp snap , feel the velvety texture and enjoy the taste of chocolate with its unique fruity yet smoky undertones.
6. True classicChocolate never goes out of fashion.Join Fourie for a chocolate masterclass where you will learn chocolate tempering, how to make handmade truffles, and a range of modern chocolate decorating techniques.
