Wonderful cocoa and chocolate expo. I was very impressed with all the various booths..Thanks for taking us on this tour.
Glad you enjoyed it Patricia and it was fun trying some of the innovative flavors in our local chocolate
Wonderful video. Cocoa expo very interesting a variety of different chocolates 🍫 thanks for sharing 👍🏻 💕💯✨️
@@indrasinanan5129 you’re most welcome
Thank you @TrinbagoVibes for your stellar showcase, in celebration of T&T Cocoa and Chocolate Expo 2024 #togetherwearebetter It was truly a well-organized and dynamic event hosted by Cocoa Research Centre. Your continued support for local, is very much appreciated and indeed your commitment to content delivery that encapsulates the beauty of our country Trinidad & Tobago in the Fine Flavor Profiles of our world-renowed Trintario Cacao and the finest #trinitariochocolate 💯🍫
You are most welcome, and I’m glad we got chance to interview yall, keep up the amazing work
My daughter discovered your channel and we've been watching you on TV, we enjoy every video especially love how informative your videos are and never knew about all these festivals until I saw your channel ❤
Thank you and I’m glad yall are enjoying it
Cocoa tea is delicious and a must get
Most definitely
Bro! 100% with this one. Trinitario chocolate is the best in the world. We should be flooding our groceries with these products rather than the current imports on the shelves.
Correct is right, a Bajan chocolate store open up here before one of our own
Very educational video. Lots of interesting info. We have the best cocoa in the world.
That we do
Recently discovered your channel, keep up the good work!
Getting the word out on T&T cocoa✌
Thanks and yeah we hadda spread the awesomeness of our cocoa and what local chocolatiers are doing
@@TrinbagoVibes Also, the Mahatma Gandhi Institute for Cultural Co-Operation looks fascinating!
This is great, idk we had that much chocolate makers in T&T. Lopinot is such a special place. Great one as always.
That we do Amarlie and it’s some of the best chocolate in the world
There are many more chocolate makers - we lost a few due to the late timing of the expo.
When tasting to avoid the extreme changes in the flavour impacting you, start at the highest percentage and then work your way down to the lower percentages - it's the best way to enjoy especially if you are not used to dark chocolate.
This is a pretty good strategy
Not an unfamiliar design -lot of local chocolatiers use this design in their chocolate bars.
It is the World Cocoa and Chocolate Day Expo! Look out for it in 2025, closer to October 1st. Thanks for visiting!
For sure, I’m already looking forward to it in 2025
This was a really good video, thank you Rajeev. Very interesting and informative 🙂
You’re most welcome
Nice video Raj.
@@crudekirk thanks cous
love video question where did you buy the microphone
@@freshkidsteven thanks, I bought the microphones on Amazon
TRINIDAD HAD GREAT COCOA. WHAT HAPPENED. THE WORLD LOVES COCOA. TRINIDAD. BIG UP THE PLANTATION
The black pod and witches broom disease mash up our thriving cocoa industry but the CRC is doing everything to help eradicate these diseases
Have coco for sale looking for a buyer
I understand Trinidad and Tobago ,Venezuela, Ecuador has the best coco in world
Yup, although I’m bias to our trinitario chocolate
@TrinbagoVibes Lol me too
you plan to do any local xmas food item review/comparisons?
I kinda already did in past videos and well the upcoming one that will be dropped the Saturday before Christmas, other than that look out for the 12 shorts before Christmas, 2024 edition
@@TrinbagoVibesi may have xmas suggestion for you to review
@ go check out the panettone being sold by pizza lab in felicity, do a comparison with others
@ ohh an Italian dessert
@@TrinbagoVibes yes, also avail at malabar farms
These events are so cool yet so under marketed. Imagine if we pushed this out there we would actually bring in forex... Sigh
If again bro, we have so many things that are under the radar
If I'm not mistaken but didn't trinidad produced the best cocoa in the world
One of the best in the world, yup and we still do: if you check out my Tabaquite video where we tour the Tabaquite Cocoa Fermentary, you’ll be surprised how much we export and it’s still a smaller scale than previous years
