Chocolate lovers of all ages will have an opportunity to learn about Ecuadorian cacao, sample chocolate and create their own customized chocolate bars during two workshops Saturday, Nov. 14, at Kushi Ecuadorian Chocolate in Cedar Park. The locally operated chocolate shop will host two sessions designed to introduce participants to the history, culture and production of chocolate, with hands-on activities for children and adults. The first session, called “Choco Explorers,” begins at noon and is designed for children ages 3 to 12 and their families. The program will offer a hands-on introduction to cacao and chocolate making. A second session, “The Chocolate Experience,” begins at 4 p.m. and welcomes participants of all ages. During the afternoon workshop, guests will learn about the history and cultural significance of chocolate, explore the process of transforming cacao beans into finished chocolate and observe portions of Kushi’s chocolate-making process.

When does respect for a host's home yield to a guest's comfort?
