In this intimate morning session, Lisa will introduce you to fine flavor cacao and how it is transformed into incredible craft chocolate, sharing several incredible bars with you from her travels and personal collection. This new format is intended to be as fun as it is informative, with games, materials to browse, and time to mingle and taste at your own pace. As a chocolate educator, certified taster and judge for both the Academy of Chocolate and the International Chocolate awards, Lisa meets with other tasters and attends international festivals throughout the year. Staying connected to chocolate makers, cacao growers, importers and other industry stakeholders from across the supply chain enables her to collect lots of stories, ideas, and plenty of chocolate! Learn the basics of how to taste chocolate like a pro, and experience the tasting profiles of a variety artisanal bars made from beans harvested in countries such as Peru, Nicaragua, Brazil, Venezuela, and Thailand. These beans have been harvested from the cradle of the species Theobroma cacao and transformed by variousinternational artisans into true ‘Food of the Gods.’ Newbies and experienced tasters alike are invited to enjoy this tasting journey. Many of the bars you taste will be exclusively available through Tarts & Truffles, and each will bring you a surprising flavor explosion like you’ve never experienced before!

At the end of the tasting, a small number of bars will be available for purchase to take home, and there may also be some surprise treats from the Tarts & Truffles kitchen!

Please note that this experience can also be booked privately for corporate or team building events, groups of friends or families, on site at your location or here at ours.
