San Francisco (PRWEB) June 14, 2007 -- The San Francisco International Chocolate Salon, July 14 and 15, 2007, announces a delicious lineup of speakers and members of its Chocolate Tasting Panel, including celebrity chocolate perfume maker Yosh Han. TasteTV also announces that Vermeer Dutch Chocolate Cream Liqueur wil be a major sponsor of the Ten Days of Bay Area-wide chocolate events culminating with the two-day Chocolate Salon at San Francisco's Fort Mason Conference Center.
During the week leading up to the International Chocolate Salon, Bloomingdale's San Francisco will present daily chocolate recipe demonstrations in its kitchen by chocolatiers XOX Truffles, Coco Delice, Cosmic Chocolates, and Coco-luxe Confections, as well as by chefs Eddie Blyden, Ryan Scott of Myth Cafe, and Murielle Roux of Absinthe Brasserie. In addition, Vermeer will be sponsoring "Chocolate Specials" on dishes, drinks, and desserts at local restaurants, bars and clubs. Salon sponsor Vermeer produces the only chocolate liqueur made with real Dutch chocolate, and must be considered a leader in the pursuit of pure indulgence. Maurice Kanbar, the man behind the renowned SKYY vodka brand, took 4 years to source the chocolate to accompany his vision. When he eventually came across a creamery making the finest real Dutch chocolate in the Netherlands, Vermeer Dutch Chocolate Cream Liqueur was born.
The San Francisco International Chocolate Salon takes place on Bastille Day Weekend, July 14 and 15, 2007 at the Fort Mason Conference Center in San Francisco.
