The Art of Chocoflan

Two beloved desserts, baked together into one beautiful creation. Chocoflan combines the richness of chocolate cake with the delicate creaminess of vanilla flan, finished with a flowing caramel topping. Each slice reveals contrasting layers that complement one another in both flavor and texture.

Often called the “impossible cake,” chocoflan is known for the way its cake and custard layers switch positions during baking. Behind this transformation is a process that rewards careful preparation and attention to detail. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to bring the two components together with confidence.

What You’ll Learn

In this workshop, you’ll learn to create classic chocoflan from start to finish, bringing together moist chocolate cake, silky vanilla custard, and golden caramel in one beautifully layered dessert. Each component will be explained and demonstrated, so you can understand both the method and the purpose behind every step.

We’ll cover the techniques that help your chocoflan turn out beautifully—from preparing the caramel and assembling the layers to baking gently in a water bath. You’ll learn how to check for doneness, cool and chill the dessert properly, and release it from the mold with confidence.
