aroa fine chocolate
An excellent booth at Taste of the South End was that of Aroa Fine Chocolate.

I talked to Melanie, a pastry chef, about the elaborate process of creating the treats, many of which are hand-painted. Some of the larger items can take up to eight hours to complete.
Hand-painted bunnies ready for spring.
The chocolates look beautiful. They would be a fine addition to anyone’s Easter basket!
