People say “I love chocolate” all the time. I say (and demonstrate through worshipful consumption) how much I “love” chocolate all the time, practically defining my personality by it. There are cat people, there are electronic gadget people, there are craft people; I am a chocolate person. And so were the many hundreds of others who gathered at the Metropolitan Pavilion last month for the gorgeous, glorious, gastronomically glamorous 14th Annual New York Chocolate Show.
Food events like this are, above all, overwhelming. With more than 65 exhibitors filling the room, live demonstrations happening in various corners, and a Pantone fan deck–worth of color and design vying for your attention from signage, packaging, book jackets, and displays at every turn, it is enough to cause vertigo. Happily there is plenty of curative chocolate on hand to restore you as quickly as it did Harry Potter after a bout with the Dementors.
The key to navigating the Chocolate Show, I’ve found, is to seek out the passion. Everything tastes good, everything looks lovely, but when you find the exhibitor (whether the chocolatier him or herself or an enthusiastic brand ambassador) whose honest excitement about and true dedication to their product—their art—are as boldly on display as their edible wares, that’s where you strike gold.
