Round table on chocolate in the Living Room back tables. Bring curiosity and a chocolate to share. Space is limited, RSVP.
Let me host you into this endless and delicious topic.
This event is a round table discussion in the Living Room, at the back tables. What you bring to the conversation is curiosity and chocolate to share. Your contribution may be a bar or a confection, a nostalgic favorite, a sample of a rare cacao, or even something you dislike and want to learn more about.
Here are a few infrequently asked questions about chocolate:
- What actually is chocolate?
- Why does chocolate resonate so vividly with us in body, mind, and spirit?
- Cacao is called the “Food of the Gods” and is highly nutritious. What is science showing us about phytonutrients that benefit our health and well-being?
- How might we think about chocolate in contemporary culture and our shared human history? The oldest confirmed evidence of cacao use by our ancestors is approximately 5,000 years ago. Our history and future with chocolate are worth discussing.
- We have a complex language for discussing wine—why not cacao and chocolate?
Who is David?
I have fifteen years of professional experience and a lifetime of enthusiasm for chocolate. As a chocolatier, I make delightful creations with amazing chocolate in micro-batches and offer them online and at farmers markets. My career in chocolate is rooted in pastry and chocolate production. Working with farmers, researchers, chocolate makers, chefs, and fellow chocolatiers, I continually explore and enjoy the culture of chocolate.
Space is limited. Please reserve a seat at the table.
