Savory, sweet, and now spicy, this chocolate-themed festival will see food vendors offer their normal menu items, in addition to signature sweet creations.

The festival is a two-day celebration of all things chocolate, with tons of vendors from all over the country selling everything from chocolate truffles and bars to chocolate-covered pretzels and popcorn, and even dessert pancake tacos. There will also be live entertainment, demonstrations, and chocolate-themed activities for all ages.
