Bacon and Chocolate{1}
The world of gourmet chocolate is a constantly evolving one. As chocolatiers attempt to create new creations, mixing new flavors and seeking out the best chocolate they can find, we, the consumer, are sometimes presented with some interesting results. I have recently begun to notice that several chocolate companies and a few restaurants have added chocolate and beacon combinations to their menu. An interesting idea… in theory. I have yet to try this concoction, but my mind is open to it, the salty/ sweet combination might just work! Feast your eyes on this:

I have loved baking and cooking since I was a child. I studied foods and nutrition in college, but my secret desire was to own my own restaurant. Participation in a culinary program landed me jobs in several upscale restaurants, where I discovered my passion for baking and pastries. In 1981 I opened my bakery, Tarts and Truffles, in Sacramento, CA. Realizing a need for trained, knowledgeable bakers, I began teaching baking classes in the culinary arts program at American River College in 1990. I hope you will find my interest in high quality baking reflected in every product we sell.
