We spent this past Friday walking down the aisles of the New York Chocolate Show, now in its 12th year. Our goal was to scope out new trends from our existing chocolatiers, and see who else was entering the fray of chocolate mastery. Of course, chocolate sampling in not work at all, so we had a great time meeting new brands and catching up with our existing vendors.
We met with Chef William Dean, whose WD line we just started offering on Savorique.com. Also present was long time Savorique supporter Oliver Kita and his right-hand chef. I tried their lavender bonbon and their blood orange ganache, both to die for. We also hung out with Vanessa Barg and Lauren Gockley of Gnosis Chocolate, extending the range of their ultra-healthy and surprisingly delicious raw chocolate. Watch our e-store for new Gnosis chocolates coming-up soon! Clay Gordon, writer extraordinaire and author of Discover Chocolate was on hand to autograph his book, see photo below.
This year’s show had some wonderful displays and activities, including shows for kids, recipe how-to’s, and a chocolate bar where visitors could hang out in comfy armchairs. Overall a great success for the chocolate show this year!
