  • Parma
    Trace the history of the spread of chocolate and the master chocolatiers in Parma. Mention Parma, and minds immediately drift to world-class Prosciutto and Parmigiano Reggiano. Yet, in the shadow of the city's ancient Baptistery, a sweet heart has been beating for centuries. Parma’s chocolate love affair began in the 18th century as an aristocratic, spiced liquid luxury—a guilty pleasure reserved exclusively for the ducal courts. When the 19th century transformed cacao from a drink into solid bars, Parma didn't just watch—it led the way. Today, after a quiet spell in the late 20th century, a Renaissance is underway. A new wave of visionary artisans is rewriting the city’s culinary map. It is a world where strict "Bean to Bar" craftsmanship meets the effortless elegance of the Italian dolce vita.
