What’s that saying about April showers bringing May flowers? ☔️💐

It would be even better if those flowers were made of chocolate, are we right?

How gorgeous are these chocolate flowers made by our #ecolechocolatgrad Audrey @livinglotuschocolate ?

It was so fun catching up with Audrey this February at @thewinterchocolateshow in Toronto 🥰

So much fun!!!!

Many years ago, a friend of mine told me about @ecolechocolat and when I looked into it I realized this was where I wanted to learn more about Chocolate.

From taking their Professional and Master Chocolatier courses all the way up to my favourite, which was a Mastering chocolate flavour course, Ecole Chocolat is the place to learn all about Chocolate. Whether you want to become a professional or you just are curious to know more, they probably have a course for you.

I was so thrilled to be able to interview, Pam and Alysha for this episode. take a listen or watch and enjoy! 🍫🍫🍫

At the end of June, we had the opportunity to celebrate our 20th Anniversary with our team in New York 🎉🥂

It was a whirlwind trip getting there & back (travel is not for the faint of heart these days 🤪) - and we wanted to share this wonderful memory with all of you 🥰

It was so special for us to be together to celebrate this milestone - many members of our team had not had a chance to meet in person before! It was an evening we will never forget ♥️♥️♥️

Ecole Chocolat would not be where we are today without this amazing team of instructors & tutors for our online & in person programs, & the people who help to keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes - thank you all 🙏♥️
Our students & graduates benefit every day from your ability to teach & share your knowledge & experience.

We missed you Kerry @eztemper & Dylan @manoachocolate 🥰

And a HUGE thank you to each & every one of our students & graduates who have entrusted us with your chocolate education. We strive to make our programs the best that they can be & we are honored to be part of your chocolate journey.

Here’s to the next 20!!! 🥂🎉

Today is #InternationalWomensDay - a day to celebrate the dedication, intelligence, talent and passion that women from all over the world bring to fine cacao and chocolate.

At Ecole Chocolat, over the last 20 years, it has been our privilege to educate women from around the world in the art and science of making chocolate. We are so proud to be part of their story, and to have empowered so many with the knowledge and skills to start their own chocolate businesses!

Women play a crucial role in every step of the chocolate supply chain, from the farm to the chocolate factory, laboratory, and kitchen.

And we can’t mention #womeninchocolate without recognizing the contributions of Lauren Heineck @welltemperedmedia for telling the stories of so many incredible women in our industry through her many interviews. Thank you Lauren🙏

We are so grateful for all of the women in the fine chocolate industry that we are lucky enough to call our colleagues and friends.

Today, we celebrate your passion, your intelligence and your success.

We are inspired by women as colleagues, and draw strength from their friendship. We are proud to call them our students, graduates, colleagues, mentors and friends.

❄️Alysha had the best time @thewinterchocolateshow this past Saturday! It was so great to catch up with so many members of our Canadian fine chocolate community 🇨🇦♥️🍫

This haul will keep us well stocked through the chilly winter months!

And a big thank you to Estelle @37chocolates for suggesting the @centre.and.main.chocolate Kimchi Bar & the @allosimonne spreads - excellent choices already being enjoyed! ♥️

Buying chocolate spreads when you travel with a carry on is always a risky game & we’ve had ours confiscated at airport security more than once coming back from chocolate events😉 It was nice to be able to buy them worry free this time! 🙌

❤️ To our beloved chocolate community ❤️

On this last day of August, this is a special message just for you.

We know that you’ve been balancing a lot over the past year and a half, keeping that tower that is business, health & life outside of chocolate from toppling over. You’ve risen to these challenges in ever creative ways. And yet no one is quite sure what this fall & winter will bring.

After a year and a half of our lives being changed in ways we never thought possible, we know that you may have received the brunt of people’s emotions as we all navigate exhaustion, & a future that still seems uncertain. Many people seem to have forgotten basic politeness & compassion. Saying please & thank you. Remembering that the person they are talking to often has no personal responsibility or authority for the situation that has disappointed them. Having patience, knowing that people are doing their best.

Know that you are bringing people joy during a difficult time. You are sharing your passion & talents with your customers, & allowing them to share love with people that they still may not be able to see in person. Remember this on the tough days ❤️

We are here cheering you on. We wish you a fabulous chocolate season. You’ve got this! 🙌❤️🙌
