Chocolate Fest ’25

For the last thirteen years, chocolate experts and lovers alike have rallied around the protection and promotion of heirloom varietals, those who help them grow, and the makers that lovingly morph them into craft chocolate bars. As our fourteenth annual Chocolate Festival approaches, we are full of gratitude and excitement for the continued future of our most beloved cacao.

14th Annual Caputo’s Chocolate Festival
featuring Luisa Abram from São Paulo, Brazil!

Much could be said in praise of Luisa Abram’s chocolate from the rarest, wild-harvested cacao she taps to the slowchurned fermentation, small-batch micro-lot production techniques and so much more. However, none of that can
quite convey how singular the taste is. The notes of cacao are direct, clear, and pure but also arresting in just how
unique they are compared to any other chocolate. Point blank: nothing else tastes like this. Even to the “dyed in
the wool” chocolate aficionado, the flavor journey is uncharted. We are filled with appreciation and anticipation to see what Salt Lake City’s finest chefs and bartenders will create with them. As always, 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Heirloom Cacao Preservation Initiative.

The culinary lineup will include creations by talented chefs from around Utah.

These inspired dishes will be accompanied by cocktails, wine, and coffee from local talent to be announced soon!

All proceeds from the Chocolate Festival are donated to the Heirloom Cacao Preservation Initiative.
