Profiling Amazing Chocolatiers and Chocolate Makers

As I am on my own journey of becoming an artisan chocolatier, I am sampling, working with suppliers and talking about my own experiences. I'll be profiling artisan chocolatiers, fine chocolate makers, cocoa farmers and processors, and chocolate companies that I meet along the way.

I'm passionate about becoming part of this community & supporting my colleagues in their incredible ventures. I'm passionate about their commitment to creating delicious products and interest in doing their part to protecting the ecosystems and communities that grow the cocoa beans.
If we have yet to meet, please introduce yourself to me and let me know what you are doing!

A Gorgeous Piece of Fine Marble

Whoo HOO!  Just got home today from a local granite and marble yard and what a find!
This week I'm learning how to hand temper chocolate -- so it was important to find a good piece of marble. When we walked into the yard, it was looking right at me. Just sitting there in the rain waiting for the right person to come along. And there I was. And YES. It was free - probably would have retailed for around $150 at a gourmet retail store.


If you need a good piece of marble, try your local yard. You might be surprised :-) like me!
