About Our Company
Chocotastery is your destination for chocolate education and tasting experiences. We offer our customers an opportunity to deepen their appreciation, love and enjoyment for craft chocolate. During our events customers will learn about where and how cacao is grown and harvested and how chocolate is made and participate in a guided chocolate tasting.
We donate a portion of each event’s proceeds to help improve the livelihood of cacao farmers in cacao producing origins around the world. We accomplish this by partnering with members of the chocolate industry who we know and trust and support their businesses by purchasing their chocolate and promoting their stories.
This allows us to realize the power and possibility of connection and create a fun and empowering landscape where we can learn about chocolate, taste unique chocolate and discover how we can positively impact the industry together.

Hear From Our Customers
"The tasting itself was such a fun experience. We learned a lot about chocolate and had some laughs about which chocolate we preferred. It was a great way to do something different with the team over the virtual format. I HIGHLY recommend the virtual chocolate tasting with Glenn. I know that my company will be coming back for more team events in the future. Thanks Glenn for all your help and for such a fun and informative experience!"
~ Kelly A., Chicago, IL
"The two hours we spent with Glenn learning the process of chocolate making from the tree to bar was absolutely fascinating. Being able to taste extraordinary examples of the effort come to life was the proverbial frosting on the cake. I would do it again as I'm sure I'm missed something."
