Vanessa Barg

In preparation for the upcoming raw chocolate class I’ll be teaching this summer at the Natural Gourmet Institute, I’ve been hobnobbing with chocophiles. So, tonight I went to another raw chocolate and wine tasting where Vanessa Barg of “Gnosis Chocolate” launched her “Raw Star Salt Bar”, a velvety smooth raw fleur de sel chocolate bar with a flourish of pink Himalayan salt. Not only was it a wonderful treat to taste this new confection, but also to have finally met both her and chocolate connoisseur Clay Gordon of The Chocolate Life. Margaret Bodriguian of the “NYC Chocolate Meet-up Group” rounded up the evening with her passion and conversation for food that matters. ||| Photo Credit: Helen Castillo

This evening, I had the great pleasure of attending the NYC Chocolate Meet-up Group’s raw chocolate and wine tasting hosted by Bacchus Wine, a local wine shop in Manhattan. Featuring an assortment of high-quality, unique wines from around the world paired with Fine & Raw Chocolates bonbons and bars hand-crafted in Brooklyn by the immensely talented Daniel Sklaar, who uses only natural ingredients with artisan low-heat techniques to preserve the integrity of raw vitality and flavor, these are fast becoming New York City’s sought-after treats. ||| Photo Credit: Margaret Bodriguian
