Doors Open at 6:30 PM, Presentation Starts at 7:00 PMStep into a warm, decadent evening at the Larz Anderson Auto Museum and indulge in one of life’s greatest pleasures: chocolate. Join renowned Boston historian Anthony Sammarco for a rich and flavorful experience that blends captivating storytelling with an indulgent chocolate tasting you can see, smell, and savor.
Back by popular demand, this beloved annual event returns for an evening of pure indulgence, inviting guests to sample an array of decadent chocolates while immersing themselves in a world where cocoa reigns supreme, silky, bold, surprising, and utterly irresistible. From velvety smooth classics to unexpected flavors, every bite is part of a delicious journey through time. Though made simply from roasted and ground cocoa beans, chocolate had long been revered as the “Food of the Gods.”
With a hands-on tasting, this night will bring chocolate’s remarkable evolution to life one indulgent bite at a time. You won’t just hear about history; you’ll experience it on your palate.
Indulgent, informative, and irresistibly fun, this is far more than a lecture; it’s a feast for the senses, perfect for devoted chocolate lovers, history buffs, or anyone seeking a deliciously different night out. Come hungry, leave happy, and don’t wait to reserve your spot.
Copies of Anthony Sammarco’s book will be available for purchase following the event ($20, cash or check).
