Ghirardelli Chocolate Jubilee

By Raymus Homes - 3-17-2016

What are you doing this Saturday??

Well, if you don’t already have plans, you’ve got to check out the first ever GHIRARDELLI CHOCOLATE JUBILEE! Happening this Saturday, March 19 from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. at their Outlet in Lathrop, here’s three reasons why you can’t miss the Ghirardelli Chocolate Jubilee…

• Your ticket gets you into the Grand Tasting Tent where you can sample the chocolatey goodness offered by other local artisans like Nothing Bundt Cakes (Stockton), Bon Mange (Stockton), Cake Couture (Stockton), Anna’s Irresistibles (Tracy), Dunkin Donuts (Modesto), Fab Delights (Antioch), CR Fudge Co. (Newman), DeBrito Chocolate Factory (Hollister), Busen Bites (Discovery Bay), The Olive Oil Pantry (Manteca), Spirit Cakes (Sacramento), Marich Chocolates (Hollister), Sconza Candy Company (Oakdale), Way to Life Foods (Antioch), and The Rustic Puff (Lodi). Talk about a chocolate overload…my mouth is already counting down the days…

• You can attend Ghirardelli Chocolate School and actually learn how chocolate is made! Ghirardelli’s own “Chocolate Professor” – Dave Stuart – will teach participants the entire chocolate making process from bean to bar. Chocolate can be as educational as it is tasty…

• Ice. Cream. Eating. Contest. Need I say more? Prepare to be entertained as you watch six contestants eat a world-famous Ghirardelli Hot Fudge Sundae as fast as they humanly can – WITHOUT HANDS. I can already tell this event alone is going to be worth the price of admission…

The weather on Saturday is poised to be a beautiful 75 degrees – the perfect temperature for tasting and enjoying chocolate. In addition to my top three reasons for attending, there will also be live music and dancing by local artists and plenty to keep the kids entertained – including bounce houses, carnival games, and face painting.

PLUS – a special coupon is available for all friends of Raymus Homes. Click to download a coupon for 15% off all chocolate purchased during the Jubilee!
