The festival is dedicated to promoting quality chocolate, sustainability in cacao farming, and education on the craft of chocolate making.
This year’s schedule includes a Friday evening session featuring a special presentation from the Heirloom Cacao Preservation Fund, honoring farmers who grow designated heirloom quality cacao. A tasting of chocolate made from these special beans will follow the presentation. On Saturday, our two classic sessions feature samples and shopping for chocolate from all over the world. Attendees can also attend a full roster of classes Saturday including guided tastings and talks on chocolate topics including genetics, history, and sustainability. We have our first class specifically for children on Saturday morning featuring kid friendly chocolate history and a hand’s on craft!
