Chocolate Stops

Chocolatier Blue, Mill Valley, CA www.chocolatierblue.com recently opened in the Strawberry Village Mall. It joins a retail store location in Berkeley. Artisan chocolatier Chris Blue creates chocolates with unusual and classically flavored fillings. Blue spent his childhood summers on his family’s farm in Nebraska where he says he learned the importance of supporting local farmers. He worked under renowned chef Charlie Trotter in Chicago and was taught how to best use fresh, organic ingredients. Chocolatier Blue creations begin with Domori chocolate from Italy and include Five Star brand organic butter, which has the highest fat content of any butter in the world. Cooking techniques such as sous vide, grilling, and roasting are used to make the fillings, which contain no artificial flavors, extracts, compounds, preservatives, or pre-made purees. Selection available at Chocolatier Blue changes seasonally.
