Last month, my schedule was packed with events, including three chocolate and cheese pairings, all of which received fantastic feedback. It's become a tradition for us to showcase our favorite pairings on the Pairing Wall in our shop after each event. This month, I'm thrilled to share some of these standout combinations with all of you.


Then, I introduced a standout: Chocolate-Covered Parmesan. It's a simple yet striking combination—dip small pieces of Parmesan cheese in melted dark chocolate and let them cool until the chocolate hardens. The marriage of salty Parmesan and rich chocolate offers a unique flavor experience.

From unexpected moments in the shop to a very personal chocolate journey, Bloom reminded me what happens when we slow down, stay curious and notice. And now, something new is beginning...
