If there’s anything that most of us can agree on, it’s this: chocolate is one of the most amazing things there is. Seriously, no matter how you like it: milk, dark, with nuts, with crispy crunchy rice, with mint – it’s something amazing for sure. Well, Hoosier chocolate lovers have a major reason to celebrate this year, as the first-ever Hoosier Chocolate Festival is coming to Carmel in February. This chocolate festival in Indiana is likely to become a tradition in future years, and it’s the perfect time to jump in – be one of the first to someday say you attended this festival way back when it all began. So, as we get into this: try really, really hard not to lick your screen.

Taking place on Saturday, February 12th, 2022 at the Bridgewater Country Club is a feast for the sweet tooth (and the other senses).

It’s a heaven for lovers of chocolate of all sorts.

Whether you like milk chocolate or dark chocolate better (or maybe something in between), there’s plenty to love here.

Just grab a little of everything, it’s fine.

The Early Afternoon Experience begins at noon and runs until 2:30 p.m.

In addition to the chocolate, there will also be live music, vendors, and even classes on things like how to make the perfect cocoa cocktail.

There are three packages available from ticketing: the Hoosier Darling, Hoosier Sweetie, and the ultimate Hoosier Valentine.
