This facility is a creative space for chefs and artisans to develop talent and skills. The centre is part of the wider Chocolate Academy Centre network, which has 27 academies across the globe.
It is located in the New York Meatpacking district, which brings together talent from industries such as confectionery, pastry and chocolate.
