I Miss U all my Blog: CHOCOLAT SHOWS!

Yesterday I was FMing with a terrific food blogger, Roboppy and she said she didn't much like going to food shows...

We had a little bit of a disagreement about how useful they are so I thought I'd take you back to the 2008 Salon du Chocolat in Paris..

I find them very educational in fact...

You learn all sorts of essential information....

And in Paris there are slew of informing books to browse and buy...

I have to wonder why my parents didn't take me to something like this..?

What an opportunity to practice my art skills painting a chocolate mask like this one - do you then eat it while wearing it...? Hmmm

Look at this Paris gown made entirely of chocolate!

Did you know that all pastry chefs have to make elaborate sculptures in chocolate in order to graduate?

Oh well back to the chocolate...

I hope you had some breakfast before stopping by PB...

A good breakfast is essential before tackling a chocolate show...

Otherwise you might loose it very quickly. Remember the lesson about the marshmallow?

Restraint is a good thing to bring along to a chocolate show...yes sir ree...

And there is more than just chocolate at the Paris Salon...

In fact if they changed the name to salon du MACARONS they wouldn't be half wrong...

Sadaharu was there and Christoph Roussell too...

Oh enough of dragging you around the chocolate show...

Did you like it or hate it?

BONJOUR CHOCOLAT SHOWS!!!
