Classes for high school students
Did you know that chocolate has a sound, and professional chocolate judges use it to help determine a bar’s quality and sophistication? Learn how to taste the “food of the gods” just like the experts do at this dynamic and engaging tasting that will forever change the way you eat chocolate. Learn how to truly experience the different flavors and nuances through demonstration and discussion as you are led through the process of sampling small-batch, craft specialty chocolate. Then participate in a blind taste test and guess which samples are high-end specialty chocolates vs. low-end commercial chocolates.
Victoria Kichuk has been a chocolate sommelier, writer, and tour guide for more than a decade, and brings a unique blend of engaging storytelling abilities with an accessible approach to food education that ushers audiences toward a new appreciation of chocolate. She has served as the corporate blogger for Hotel Chocolate (UK), and participated in Colombia Chocolate Week (2019) where she received a blessing from the spiritual leader of the Arhuacos indigenous tribe to carry the stories of their ancestral cacao to people around the world through her teachings. She is the founder of Cocoa Beantown, a chocolate tours and educational experiences company in Boston.
