Here in Athens there are so many local chocolate companies it would take a lifetime to taste them all. I’ve even
written about one particular street down town (that I call chocolate street) that has dozens of chocolate stores in one block.
The thing about local chocolate companies is I find they can be split into two categories. One is the great local company that produces original treats using high quality ingredients. The other is the company that uses average quality ingredients and pretty much produces the exact same kind of treats as everybody else. Often these lower quality shops don’t even make 80% of their stock, the just sell factory made sweets. I think I’m going to start an investigation here in Greece, I’m going to find out which shops are really doing creative work, and which are just slacking off. I welcome you to do the same thing in your town or city, and let me know what you discover.
