Grenada Chocolate Fest was another successful celebration of one of the island’s most treasured crops, cocoa.
Held over the last weekend in May, the festival was a total community driven event with locals and visitors alike enjoying the rich options Grenadian chocolate offers through events that combined culture, education, gastronomy, wellness and pure chocolate fun.
Under the theme ‘Roots of Resilience’, it was a tribute to the spirit and determination of Grenada’s cocoa and chocolate industry following the devastating impact of Hurricane Beryl in June 2024.
Despite widespread damage to farms, trees, and facilities, cocoa farmers and chocolate makers across the island rose to the challenge by rebuilding, replanting, and continuing their craft with renewed passion
Grenada Chocolate Fest was founded 12 years ago by Magdalena Fielden at True Blue Bay Boutique Resort, where the event continues to be hosted. Over the years, the festival has grown into a cornerstone of the resort’s social responsibility and sustainability mission, engaging the local community while highlighting the global importance of ethical chocolate production and cocoa preservation.
