Lecture Description
Valentine's Day and chocolate often seem synonymous, yet the holiday and the emphasis on chocolate passes all too quickly. The talk and tasting of many fine chocolates will cover what chocolate needs to mean in today's culinary atmosphere, how to choose chocolate that meets what you want in a relationship (honesty, transparency, good taste) and where one's relationship with chocolate can lead (travel, good health).
10 Chocolate Samples included.
