I can’t express how grateful we are for Stephanie teaching us how to ski! We had 3 sets of 2 hour lessons and the progress we made was remarkable, the school has great facilities. We were adults learning for the first time and although it’s a humbling experience it instructor was good at keeping us positive and progressing. Can’t recommend it enough.

The Tasting and Workshop course is the best experience you can offer your colleagues, association members or class. In this course, you can taste the finest chocolate and make your very own exquisite chocolate creations. A truly unforgettable experience!
So Vevey - in addition to being the final resting spot of Charlie Chaplin - is also the headquarters of Nestle, world-famous (among other things) for its milk chocolate confectionaries. However, Vevey also houses a Laderach store, a family-owned chocolatier and considered the premium chocolatier in Switzerland (kind of like an anti-Nestle, I like to think). At any rate, I've been searching for a high-quality boutique chocolatier ever since my favorite Belgian one (Manon) sadly closed a number of years ago. Nothing has ever matched Manon's standard imo - until I tried Laderach. It is very very good and very similar to what I had with Manon. I chose an assortment of Laderach's chocolates and truffles - and they had a terrific assortment such that I agonized and despaired over which ones to select - and brought them carefully home in my carry-on. My wife and I ceremoniously opened the box, partook of a couple each - and omg, what fine chocolates these are! Rich buttercream fillings, strong coffee flavors, dusky dusty truffles - can't wait to return for more! I hear they've opened a store in New York City, so will be checking that out over the holidays!
