We all love chocolate. But how much do we know about the world’s favorite food?

For a chocolate lover, the art of tasting—which is quite different from merely eating chocolate--- has the power to transform a casual nibble into a world of new pleasures. The seemingly formal protocol used by professional chocolate makers, and connoisseurs, to compare and evaluate chocolates is simply a way of focusing attention on the chocolate, with all of our senses. It’s also loads of fun, challenging, delicious and great for the vocabulary.

Anyone can easily learn to taste chocolate for pleasure. No expertise or equipment is required. Tasting can be done at home alone, with close friends after dinner, or you can make it a party.

Embark on this delicious journey to learn all about chocolate history, facts, and tasting tips. What is more wonderful than becoming an expert on something you truly love?
