Christine at the Schokolade Festival

Germany is a wonderful place.  Tübingen has a Schokolade (Chocolate) Festival.  The only bad thing--they have it for one week.  Really, this event should occur every weekend as far as I am concerned.  And I think the hordes of people that attended would agree with me.  Tübingen is a university town, right outside of Stuttgart.  There were all types of chocolate there.  As is custom (during Christmas time), there is a mug you can purchase for the event.  I had both heiße Schokolade (hot chocolate) and Kirsche gluhwein (cherry hot mulled red wine).  I also sampled Swiss hot chocolate.  

The people:

Examples of Schokolade makers and creations:

Best Schokolade cake ever.  I took a bite before I thought to take a picture.  But it was that good.  

Someone did painting with Schokolade:

Finally, I had a shot of Schokolade in a Schokolade made shot glass.  But forgot to take a picture.  Too excited.  ha ha
