The mission of the annual Kona Chocolate Festival is to
entertain both visitors to and residents of the Big Island; showcase the
creative talents of fine Big Island chefs, chocolatiers, ice cream and candy
makers; provide a means to highlight cacao farming and support the chocolate
industry in Hawai'i; and raise funds to support education opportunities in video production
and the culinary arts on Hawaii Island.
The 7th Annual Kona Chocolate Festival, March 27 – 29 includes an Evening Benefit Gala and a multiple day Chocolate Symposium.
