In July 2023, my brother and sister-in-law invited me to join them in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico for a well-deserved rest. They were gracious hosts, arranging day trips for snorkeling, visiting the botanical gardens, souvenir shopping, and, most importantly, a chocolate truffle workshop at the ChocoMuseo. We learned about the history of chocolate and the entire process from harvest to production. We had the chance to see real cacao beans and pods and taste the difference between chocolates made with various percentages of pure cacao. Our wonderful instructor guided us through each step of making filled chocolates, answering all our questions along the way. We also practiced the art of tempering chocolate, carefully filling each dome and sealing it with a cap. After making Bonbons, we worked in teams to create beautifully flavored truffles. Honestly, I had the time of my life and left that magical place with the beginnings of a plan.
