CHOCOLATE: FROM JUNGLE TO TRUFFLE


What could be a better way to spend the week of March Intensive than eating chocolate? We interviewed seniors Julia Coulter and Ari Brown who said the reason they signed up for "From Jungle to Truffle" was because they loved chocolate.

Julia noticed the class when she was a sophomore and thought it looked like a lot of fun so this year she signed up. Ari Brown says, “I enjoy chocolate and free food … and Julia.” In "From Jungle to Truffle" you learn where chocolate originated, and how it’s made into the chocolate bars we buy at the stores. The class includes tastings, and tons of delicious kinds of chocolate. Students can get a better appreciation for chocolate and are able to try different brands like Dagoba, which is Ari Brown’s favorite! Dagoba is an organic chocolate made in USA.
