Next Generation Chocolatier Competition

Vreeland & Associates created and manages the Next Generation Chocolatier Competition, America's only national chocolate competition.  The competition's mission is to acknowledge American artisan chocolatiers who are gifted and ready for prime time.  "The competition is like American Idol, only sweeter," says Curtis Vreeland.  It is held every two years in New York City, with the next event scheduled for 2008.

The competition's objectives are to: 

Set quality standards
Encourage chocolatiers to meet those standards
Raise consumer appreciation in well-crafted confections
Showcase the results
