Koko Monk Chocolates is the first shop in Vancouver that creates raw chocolate directly from fine flavor organic, heirloom cacao beans.
Join Paul Dincer, Koko Monk Chocolates’ founder and chocolatier, for a rare and intelligent food adventure. On your raw chocolate tasting journey, you’ll explore chocolate’s exciting history and transformation while sampling a wide range of cacao beans and single origin, stone-ground, bean-to-bar chocolate. (Be advised, this class is not for people who want a candy tasting event.) You will taste vegan, organic, sugar-free, and gluten-free chocolate varieties and discover the world of natural sweeteners–helping you make healthier food choices every day. Paul will lead you like a chocolate sommelier, highlighting terroirs and tasting notes so you can master your appreciation of what real chocolate was in its origin and how it differs from today’s candy-style chocolate.
