On October 10th in East Tennessee, the “It’s All About the Chocolate Festival” takes place as one of the tastiest events of the year here in the state! Held in Dandridge, this chocolate-filled celebration brings together local bakers, pastry makers, small businesses and chocolate vendors from across East Tennessee for a day packed with sweet treats. You can expect tables filled with chocolate favorites like brownies, cookies, cakes, cupcakes, fudge, candies, pudding and other rich desserts, with plenty of different creations to browse and sample. Vendors are coming from communities including Dandridge, White Pine, Jefferson City, Rutledge, Sevierville, Maryville, Knoxville, Newport and Morristown, giving the festival a strong local feel. Chocolate is the main attraction, but there is more to look through while you’re there. Handmade craft booths add a seasonal touch with fall and Halloween decorations, gifts and locally made items. The event also includes a chocolate vendor contest, adding a little friendly competition to all of the tasting. Between the rows of chocolate treats, local vendors and festive fall displays, it makes for a fun October stop for anyone with a serious sweet tooth.
