It's NATIONAL CHOCOLATE DAY, and we’re celebrating in the sweetest way possible! Join The Food Court as we welcome the KING of Chocolates himself, Jacques Torres, a.k.a. Mr. Chocolate™! From his humble beginnings in the South of France to becoming one of the world’s most renowned chocolatiers, Jacques has a story as rich as his signature hot chocolate.

In this episode, we dive into his incredible journey—from crafting pastries at 15, working with Michelin-starred chefs, to opening his iconic chocolate factory in Brooklyn. We chat about his love affair with chocolate, the artistry behind his craft, and his memorable treats at NYCWFF this year, like his caramel chocolate popcorn and decadent chocolate chip cookies
.
