CHOCO-WORD OF THE MONTH
When one thinks of pralines your mind may wander to the Deep South. For in the 1800's this region became the home of this now famous southern confection where cream, sugar, butter and vanilla come together in the most wonderful way. However, in the world of chocolate, this word goes back to 1912 when the term was coined by Belgium chocolatier Jean Neuhaus. In this European sense, a praline today refers to a confection with a hard chocolate shell and soft interior. If you are in the Portland area, you can experience these Belgium gems at Leonidas Fresh Belgium Chocolates.

The Portland Chocolate Lovers' Meetup was started to gather chocolate lovers together and explore the world of our favorite food group.
