Gourmet Craft Chocolate Tasting
Event Information
About this event
Did you know that chocolate comes from a plant? Or that dark chocolate should not taste bitter? Or that depending on where the cocoa is grown it can have over 300 different flavor notes?
Join us for a guided craft chocolate tasting with chocolate sommelier and international chocolate judge Karla Schade of Opening Chocolate. Learn the answers to those questions and so much more about craft chocolate as we taste a selection of luxury craft chocolate brands.During this tasting, you will sample delicious chocolate from chocolate makers across the world (and some from right here in Utah) as you learn where chocolate comes from and the differences between craft chocolate and mass-marketed chocolate. As we explore the flavors you will have the opportunity to develop your palate, explore new tastes, and enjoy a surprise pairing, especially for spring, at the end. You might just find your new favorite chocolate bar!

TESTIMONIALS: So fun! Absolutely worth it! A group of my old high school friends hired Karla to lead a chocolate tasting experience via Zoom. I never imagined that something could be so engaging and interactive in a virtual space! Karla brings passion and enthusiasm as well as an impressive knowledge of the history of cacao. (I told her she should write a dissertation on chocolate.) I was amazed at how much I'd learned! And I've definitely discovered some new favorite brands of chocolate. 10/10!--Erica
