There is something wondrous about people who make delicious, yet very creative items out of food.
I admit that I was one of those kids who took their time eating the chocolate bunny. It was full of wonder and delight, and I wanted it to last a long time. Starting at the bottom (thus keeping the head and ears intact as long as possible), I slowly made my way up. No way could I keep it as an iconic image to treasure. It tasted too good. By golly, it was chocolate!
Artisan Chocolate Spiritual Icon
As an artisan chocolate-maker, Sarah Hart, Alma’s Chocolate, takes her craft seriously. It’s remarkable that it can take years to acquire the specialized knowledge of how to work with chocolate, and there’s always more to learn. This is one of our earlier stories, filmed three years ago, and just recently, Sarah returned from France where she had taken another master class.
With Valentine’s Day coming up, this may be a good time to visit your local artisan chocolate shop for a gift. This holiday may be one of those occasions (though year-round, there’s always an excuse) where you buy two items, one for yourself, and the other for that special person in your life. Enjoy! —Rebecca
