Singles Mingle Chocolate Tasting *In-Person* *NEW*
Join us at CCAE for an evening of chocolate tasting and possible friendship or even romance! This is not your typical singles event! It has been shown that people are able to find bonds more easily when engaging in a shared experience that involves learning new things. At this event, we’re going to teach you some new things about chocolate, and as you sit and learn and taste and enjoy, you might just find something interesting about someone new who is sharing the experience with you. Guests will be seated for a series of guided tastings of curated craft chocolate, with guests switching tables each round for circulation. Folks who feel a connection will be able to exchange information before the conclusion of the event. Everyone will get to learn about and taste some great chocolate, and all participants will receive an extra sweet treat to go home with!
