classes and experiences: Food and Drink Tasting

5.0 (1)

I've always been a chocoholic, however, in 2010 I attended a chocolate appreciation event, and had my eyes opened and my mind blown. I was shocked to realise I hadn’t been a chocoholic after all; I’d just been a Cadbury-oholic who occasionally dabbled in (what I later learnt are other mediocre) brands, but thought them special.

I began pursuing this passion for chocolate, researching and eating copious amounts of it. I love the discovery element of diverse and nuanced flavour of good chocolate, in the same way people explore whisky, wine, coffee or many other food stuffs.

And I love to share my love of chocolate. It took a long time to navigate life where I accepted this can be my 'thing' - that being a chocolate expert can be a job - and a huge thank you to every person over the years who told me they were swept up in my enthusiasm or felt taken on a journey of discovery when I talked chocolate.

It was seeing this response time and time again, and realising I kept coming back to this one driving force, that I took the plunge and launched Fiamma Chocolate to share my passion for exceptional chocolate with others.
