Read moreThe first “Brasil Bean to Bar Chocolate Week” is taking place May 3-6 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. As we couldn't attend, we thought it would be a great opportunity for us to introduce you to Brazil as a cacao origin. Brazil has much to offer the world of fine chocolate... but what's the history of cocoa and Brazil, and why is it not often talked about?

An interview with Tom, co-founder of Goodnow Farms Chocolate.
@thechocpro: Could you briefly introduce yourself and Goodnow Farms?
I'm Tom Rogan and my wife Monica and I are the owners Goodnow Farms chocolate. We started the company in 2015, although we were making chocolate long before that. We spent several years developing our cacao sources in Central America, South America and Mexico before deciding to start making chocolate professionally. Our goal with Goodnow Farms is to make incredible craft chocolate while also sourcing our cacao beans ethically and sustainably.
Read moreYou have tasted some (or lots) of chocolate in your life. Perhaps you've come by The Chocolate Project for our tasting days, or have experienced single-origin chocolate. Maybe you've found a favourite origin or chocolate maker. But you have more questions: I know that I do. There is so much to explore and learn regarding chocolate, and you would like to delve deeper. Where do you start? We have compiled some great resources to start you on your quest for knowledge, at your leisure. These are a few of our favourite go-to resources for beginners and intermediates.
Read moreThe Ninth Annual Northwest Chocolate Festival took place in Seattle, WA on November 11-12 this year, and I was excited to attend for the second time. It has sure expanded from my first visit two years ago. It is the top show for artisan chocolate in North America, and one of the best in the world. My favourite aspect of this event is the large Education Program: each day there is a full schedule of workshops, classes, and seminars to attend. These range from speakers sharing stories from origins & farmers; tasting workshops to try fresh cocoa pod fruit, traditional drinking chocolate recipes, baking, and chocolate pairings such as wine & cheese; technical workshops on evaluating chocolate, roasting cacao, tempering, genetic diversity; supply-chain seminars; book-launches; and many more. The most difficult part is choosing which session to attend. And that's all in addition to the exhibitors on the main show floor and all of their information and tastings. Really, one weekend is not nearly enough to absorb it all!
