Come join the Southwestern Virginia Chapter of the ACF and the Hotel Roanoke and Conference Center for an afternoon of chocolate indulgences created by many area vendors providing a wide array of chocolate inspired dishes and delights. Each vendor will provide a free tasting sample of their choice in addition to showcasing additional products sure to please your palate.
We have demonstrations from Chef Geoffrey Blount, winner of the "Best Taste Award" at the World Gelato Cup in Italy and March 4, 2013 winner of the Southeast Regional ACF Pastry Chef of the Year. Chef Jennifer England will be presenting a stunning custom wedding cake and Chef Cheryl Gum, The Greenbrier Resort's Head Candy-Chocolate Chef will be making truffles. We also have Executive Pastry Chef of the Homestead, Michel Finel, one of the top five finalists in the World Pastry Competition held in Lyons, France.
The event is a fundraiser for the Southwestern Virginia Chapter of the American Culinary Federation outreach programs. These programs involve area youth and adults to teach them the benefits of healthy eating habits and food preparation. All proceeds go to funding these programs so they can continue to benefit the entire community.
