Sample Attendee Reviews:
Says the Aly M. on Yelp: “Sooooooooooo tired of chocolate right now. I never thought that would happen. But, it was freakin amazing. I liked so many things, but it was also nice to find things I didn’t like–it shows there was a nice variety there…..”
Adds Nancy B. on Yelp: “For the second year TasteTV put on an amazing event with…vendors at the Bell Harbor Convention Center. Jewelry, Spa products, wine… oh how there were so much more than truffles this year!!! .”
Plus says Inna B. on Yelp: “This was one crazy delicious event that left plenty of folks in a chocolate coma… The chocolate samples ranged from good to being a flavor explosion/party in your mouth.. and a lot of them looked almost too beautiful to eat. Many of them had some interesting flavors and… well, let’s just say I’m probably no longer going to my regular shopping-mall chocolate stores when buying fancy chocolate as a gift. There are simply too many amazing little chocolate companies that so many people have not even heard of!.”
Many thanks to our talented and prestigious panelists, as well as volunteers and speakers, including Joseph Whinney (Founder & CEO of Theo Chocolate), Lauren Adler (Founder & Chief Chocophile of Chocolopolis), and Lisa Francoise Schafer (Owner & Creator of Chocolate Spa ‘Sweet Beauty’). We also want to thank the staff from the Bell Harbor Conference Center.
