This is what students are taught in Versailles, at the ISIPCA perfumer training, the worldwide famous French school of the luxury cosmetics, where the only perfumer of Hungary studied. In this school she has graduated from the perfumer mastercourse of Fragrance Academy as the only Hungarian among the 12 students coming from all over the world since decades.

THE WORKSHOP – PREPARE CHOCOLATE! – In the course of this lesson the participants can gain insight into the basics of how to prepare filled chocolate bonbons. They can learn what tempering means, how the chocolate becomes shiny and crispy, and everybody can get to know the technique of marble-tempering. Each participant is given the opportunity to form the shape - used by professional chocolate masters - from molten and tempered chocolate, which proves to be a special experience. We prepare two kinds of cream base for the subtle and stylish masterpieces: one is a brandy-mellowed marzipan cream, while the other one is a creamy, honey-added milk cholocate cream. With the help of our chocolate master we fill the forms shaped with these creams. We cover the desserts with tempered chocolate, which is called TALPALÁS, then, following the cooling process we hit the pralines out of the shape. The task remaining is only to taste the fresh-made crispy bonbon.

The program lasts three hours. The price of the training includes the gift-wrapping of the chocolates made, the ample tasting from the pralines prepared during the lesson, the recipes, salt cakes and coolers, furthermore, every necessary ingredient, the usage of apron as well as that of our kitchen tools and appliances.

THE SHOE MANUFACTURE – The Shoe Manufacture was founded by Vitus Juhos in 1910. The founder has already died, but the handcraft technology established by him and passing from father to son has been maintained up to now, preserving the traditions invented by the ancestors. Presently, the fourth generation of this family prepares the shoes. The family has always put great empasis on both the quality and the usage of the best materials, therefore the shoes prepared by them are not only fashionable, but – due to the usage of natural leather and special shapes – they provide the utmost feeling of comfort. Their shoes are given leather uppers, lining and soles, with the application of traditional handcraft technology. All of our shoes are formed by well-skilled masters from simple leather pieces to exclusive footwear which reflects the personality and the style of the person wearing them.

Due to the continuous developments, and to the delight of our customers, we have been widening our shoe range with exclusive modells following the latest fashion. Our products are small-scale (10-12 pairs). Certainly they prepare footwear at individual request as well, they can even make the customer’s shoes from the fabric of the customer’s clothing.
