The Science of Chocolate: Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth

ECS0022

September 21, 2023

Making confections can be a yummy and fun educational experience for children. But for everyone to get the most out of it, you need patience and scientific knowledge. Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth, a science-of-confection 4-H curriculum series, helps youth aged 8-18 meet those challenges, regardless if they have any prior knowledge about candy making. The Science of Chocolate manual offers short lessons (including food-safety information and lab essentials); hands-on experiments, like tempering, enrobing, and making molds and ganaches; explorations of industry-related issues, including food regulations, product labeling and opening your own business; twelve basic recipes; and simple homework to deepen the learning. In addition, each manual includes an achievement program to help youth identify their goals and track their accomplishments. Indulge your and their sweet tooth with this comprehensive teaching guide.
