Barry Callebaut inaugurates Chocolate Academy™ center in Moscow

In 2008 Barry Callebaut opened its first training center for chocolate professionals on the premises of its chocolate factory in Chekhov, 60 km south of Moscow. Relocated now to the city center of Moscow, the new Chocolate Academy™ will remain a unique training center in Russia.

It is the only such center to offer a diverse range of seminars, demonstrations, theoretical courses and practical workshops, designed to inspire artisans and culinary professionals, including chocolatiers, pastry chefs, bakery and other chocolate experts as well as culinary professionals working in hotels, restaurants and the catering business. The center will also serve as a meeting place for chocolate professionals encouraging the exchange of technical expertise among each other.
