Know Before You Go

Tips & Advice

  • Arrive between 5:45 and 5:55 PM because instruction begins promptly at 6:00 and the opening guidance starts then.
  • Wear comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes for the hands-on chocolate work, as the organizer specifically recommends both.
  • Tell Crosswood Cooking Collective about allergies or dietary restrictions at least 48 hours beforehand, since chocolate toppings may involve common allergens.
  • Reserve a seat ahead of time because class space is limited and the organizer says holiday schedules fill quickly.
  • Bring valid identification if you plan to buy alcohol; brewery beverages cost extra, and purchasers must be at least 21.

Special Events & Promotions

  • Brewery beverages are available for purchase separately.
