Being part of the Advisory Council for Salon du Chocolat New York has been one of the sweetest honors of my year. This show is the premier chocolate event in New York — and the largest in the United States. It brings together some of the most talented chefs, master chocolatiers, pastry artists, and cocoa visionaries from around the globe.
Last year I left inspired by the craftsmanship, storytelling, and heart that goes into fine chocolate. This March will be no exception — in fact, it will be the best one yet.
Salon du Chocolat is much more than a show. It’s a full day of:
Tasting extraordinary chocolates from around the world
Watching live demos from celebrated pastry chefs
Meeting bean-to-bar makers and hearing their stories
Enjoying chocolate-inspired fashion, art, and interactive exhibits
Discovering new flavors, new makers, and new favorite bars
If you love chocolate (and of course you do!), this event is an unforgettable experience.
I’m sharing this now because I want my Chocology community to hear about an amazing, limited-time offer:
Salon du Chocolat New York is running a Buy One, Get One Free ticket deal all weekend long.
It’s their way of making the show more accessible so more people can enjoy the magic.
👉 The deal ends Monday at 11:59 p.m.
👉 When it’s gone… it’s gone!
This is the perfect opportunity to bring a chocolate-loving friend, spouse, colleague, or family member for a full day of chocolate and fun.
As we celebrate 10 years of Chocology, being part of the Advisory Council feels especially meaningful. I can’t wait to help bring the world of fine chocolate even closer to New York — and support the makers and creators who inspire us every day.
If you plan to attend, please let me know — I’d love to meet you there!
Stay sweet,
Linda
Advisory Council Member, Salon du Chocolat NYC

Last week I spoke with my first corporate client from a decade ago—and moments later an order arrived from one of our very first fudge customers. It hit me: wow, it’s been more than ten years. In that time I’ve watched families grow, babies arrive, and new chapters begin—reminding me that Chocology is a bridge between people, not just a business. Our RED values—Relationships, Education, and Distinction—have guided every tasting and class. Five months after we opened our Stony Brook shop, the world changed, and we adapted—launching an online farmers market with 40+ partners to deliver comfort and care. Success isn’t always loud; it’s the quiet courage to show up and lift others, one small act at a time.
