Sciocola Festival: Chocolate brings everyone together
October 27, 2023- We wrapped up the month of October with an invitation to take the show-cooking stage at Modena’s annual chocolate festival, an event beloved by locals that attracts guests from around Italy.
The challenge was to present a dish of our choosing- salty or sweet- with cocoa as an ingredient. We grabbed the opportunity to showcase a variation of a West African favorite- peanut strew with fufu with a sweet addition, better explained by Beauty.
Our time on stage ended with a surprise, the festival awarding us this year’s Sciolcola award with the inscription: "Because everyday you celebrate diversity, creating opportunities for migrant women in Modena."
