About this Event
Pastry chef and chocolatier Esther Pryor shares the history of cacao from Mesoamerica to the modern world.
Once considered more valuable than gold, the simple bean remains a prized ingredient in the culinary world from savory to sweet. Pryor discusses current trends and challenges in the chocolate industry, design techniques, and offers a sample of her own chocolate creations.
Pryor has worked as a pastry chef with fine dining restaurants, catering companies, and special event producers. She opened her own boutique chocolate and pastry company in 2013. Her approach to chocolate production is based in ethically sourced chocolate, clean ingredients, and global flavors.
