Chocolate Tastings & Musings by Chocolate Sommelier Estelle Tracy

Bonjour! I’m Estelle Tracy, a food writer and chocolate sommelier based in Chester County, in the Philadelphia area.

My chocolate journey started with the 37 Chocolates challenge: in June of 2015, I committed to sample 37 US-made chocolates by my 37th birthday on Halloween of that year. What started as a delicious excuse to eat a lot of chocolate turned out to be a life-changing journey that revealed my passion for craft chocolate and the people behind these bars.

Since 2016, I’ve shared that passion through chocolate tastings at wineries and private clubs, both nationally and internationally, as well as through online tastings.

The 37 Chocolates challenge was originally documented on my YouTube channel then promoted on Facebook and Instagram (check #37chocolates.) I started the blog the following year to continue the conversation. On this blog, you’ll find interviews with chocolate-makers, feature new artisans, share my thoughts on the perfect chocolate bar size, and what makes a good chocolate-wrapper. I hope you enjoy!

“Do you still feel the chocolate magic?”

..... “Yes,” I immediately said. I keep discovering show-stopping bars that help me renew my vows with that magical food.

Come shop with me // Good to know: the bars I curate are all made with transparently traded cacao beans.

Come taste with me // Finding the right experience provider for your event can be tricky, so let me help you by sharing what sets my in-person and virtual chocolate tastings apart.

  • I’m a chocolate connoisseur, not a choco-snob – White chocolate, milk chocolate, dark chocolate: I eat them all. Whether you feel the same or swear by the dark stuff, you’ll feel welcome at my events.
  • International attendees are welcome – We’ll leverage my international network of chocolate partners to have kits shipped worldwide, including (but not limited to) Argentina, Belgium, France, India, New Zealand, the UK, and more.
  • I believe your chocolate tasting starts when you open your chocolate package, which is why I hand wrap and personalize each shipment.

Come talk to me // I love to hear from you.

Whether you’d like to hire me for a private virtual tasting (yes, I lead team building events), book a consulting session, or simply say “bonjour,” fill out the form here and I’ll get back to you within 48 hours. To be notified of future ticketed events, please sign up to the 37 Chocolates newsletter.
