Scroll down for english text (in black colour)

Det er blevet en tradition hos os at tage med til den årlige Chokolade Festival hvert år. Jeg synes at det er et super godt arrangement for chokolade elskere arrangeret af Chokolade Selskabet. Chokolade producenter, chokolade forhandler, håndværker mm fra hel verden deltager, der bliver holdt foredrage om chokolade og i demo køkkener kan man se dessert kokke udøve deres chokolade kunst, nogle gange kan man enda deltage.

Der er masser af lækkerier, det vil ikke være en festival uden, Med i billeten får man 5 poletter som man kan købe smags prøver for. Det indre chokolade barnet i os synes at det allerbedste og det sjoveste foruden det oven nævnte, er at der også er masser gratis små smags prøver. Der var gode gratis smags prøver også i år, selv om jeg synes at der var færre end forrige år.

I år sprang vi foredrag og demo køkkener over ikke fordi der ikke var spændende emner og demonstrationer, men fordi der var så meget andet at se og nyde. Det tog lang tid at komme rundt pga hav af mennesker og lange køer. Chokolade festivalen varer 2 dage, måske bør det strække over 3 dage, fordi for hvert år er der blevet flere og flere kunder/tilskuere.

Jeg tænker at året "hoved emne" var økologisk chokolade, vi fik ihvertfald smagt meget lækkert økologisk chokolade. Jeg har glemt at fortælle at vi have min søster med for første gang, hun følte at der var Eid/jul. På trods af lange køer og hav af mennesker nyd vi at gå rundt og kigge på de forskellige butikker og nyd at se hvad der var nyt. Forneden efter den engelske text følger der nogle "stemnings" billeder værsgo og nyd.

It has become a tradition every year to go to the annual Copenhagen Chocolate Festival. I feel it is a very good event arranged by Chokolade Selskabet. National and international chocolate producer, chocolate dealers , craftmen -women participate. There are lecture or talks about chcocolate and you can se dessert cooks showing there art in the demostration kitchen, sometimes you can even join.

And ofcourse there are all these delicious goodies, it would not be a chocolate festival with out. With the tickett you recive 5 poletts you can use to buy taste samples. The inner chocolate child in us thinks that beside the above, the best is all the small free tasting samples. There were very good free tasting samples, even thoug I feel there were more free tasting samples last year.

This year we did´nt join any lecture or speeches , not beacause they were not intressting, but beacause there were so much more to see and enjoy and due to the longs line and ocean s of people it took time to see it all. Chocolate Festival lasts 2 days, maybe ot should be expanded to 3 days, I think more and more people are joining it every year.

I think this year the "main issue" was organic chocolate, we tasted some orgaic chocolates and all of it was delicious. I forgot to tell, my sister was with us for the first time at the choclate fetival and she felt like it was Eid/Christmas. We enjoyed so much strolling around the different "shops" and seeing what was new. And then there was all the tasting and ofcourse shopping :)
Beneath there are some pictures from the festival.
