Gathering ideas & recommendations from another well-known Knoxville event, we brought our first Chocolate Festival to Dandridge on Oct. 5, 2024! We needed a little something different....and though we were on the heels of Hurricane Helene, we were still able to give folks a little distraction from real life, even if just for a few hours.
We had a Best in Show Contest for our Chocolate Vendors, and we had Craft Fair vendor booths, as well. Folks got their Shop ‘til you Drop on, with dozens of our most talented handcrafters, along with a few Direct Sale businesses as well! But mostly....we had lots of delectable Chocolate Concoctions to please everyone!
Chocolate Vendors from our area ~ Dandridge, Baneberry, White Pine, Talbott, Jefferson City, Bulls Gap, Bean Station, Kodak, Sevierville, Rutledge, Newport, New Market, Morristown ~ strutted their stuff and brought unique & yummy chocolate goodies! Can’t wait to see the yummies we’ll have to sample at our 2025 Chocolate Festival..😋❤️🍫!!
