Episode 091: Chocolat Uzma - Uzma Sharif
ABOUT THEM:
The shop opened in June 2012 in Pilsen arts district. The idea was to create a small artisan chocolate and confection shop, with a nod to those in France and Spain. They infuse our French culinary training with our South Asian heritage by creating chocolates such as hazelnut coriander praline, Indian chili caramel, and many others. The studio serves as an open-air kitchen and retail area.
As soon as you walk in, you can see the chocolatiers hard at work each day, creating high quality chocolates from scratch in small batches. Details are an imperative part of the shop, so each and every part of the process is important. They use the highest quality ingredients and chocolate including single origin chocolates from Ghana, Mexico, and Tanzania.
THEIR PHILOSOPHY:
They are guided by three principles – to always seek inspiration, support the community, and act with intention.
