Passover Chocolate Seder
OVERVIEW:
The Goal of a chocolate seder is to allow participants to learn and highlight the themes of the Passover seder while being a little silly and decadent with the chocolate. This program can be done before Passover (food costs go down a little), or during Passover as a fun program.
MATERIALS:
- Milk (or can buy chocolate milk) (WINE)
- Chocolate syrup for dipping/and making chocolate milk (SALT WATER)
- Blueberries or strawberries for dipping in Chocolate (PARSLEY to DIP)
- Bittersweet chocolate (MAROR)
- Sticky candies (if before Passover can use any kind of gummy candy, during the Passover jelly fruits work well) or frosting works too (CHAROSET)
- Chocolate covered matzah (much cheaper to make your own!) (MATZAH) https://ainttooproudtomeg.com/chocolate-toffee-matzo-crack/
- Chocolate eggs (EGGS)
- (SHANKBONE) Bones – if before Passover use these: https://www.target.com/p/keebler-scooby-doo-cinnamon-baked-graham-cracker-sticks-11oz/-/A-13019947?TCID=PDS-19859757808&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA2oW-BhC2ARIsADSIAWq5VVFRrNCuQgill89ng4HRyCoyxhRmZSE_0yF-5iiYSCbQ_8oVFJsaAuyaEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
PROGRAM OUTLINE (1 hour)
- There are a few ways to do this program. You can highlight the main points of the Passover story (Israelites were oppressed, plagues, left Egypt, crossing of the Red Sea, didn’t have time to let bread rise, have a seder so our children will know what it was like to go forth to freedom, symbols on seder plate)
- Or, there are scripts for chocolate seders online
