Portland’s ChocolateFest
ChocolateFest is set for January 23 through 25, 2015, in the Oregon Convention Center, 777 NorthEast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, Portland, Oregon.
More than 80 chocolate vendors from the Pacific Northwest are expected. Centerpiece is a replica of the cacao tree – which only grows in tropical rainforests within 20 degrees north and south of the equator. Don’t miss the lecture on how chocolate is made, from bean to bar.
If you’re over 21, Road Trips Foodies, consider attending the evening of January 23: there will be wine and chocolate pairings, drink specials and visitors will receive a free ChocolateFest wine glass.
ChocolateFest is a fundraiser for the World Forestry Center.
