EP’s second annual evening of delectable delights was a delicious success as more than 350 people sampled the best of Wichita’s chocolate food and drink. Local vendors included Cameo Cakes, EP’s own Egret Dining Room, Cocoa Dolce Artisan Chocolates, Great Harvest Bread Co., Monica's Bundt Cake, and Wichita Country Club. Even international food giant, Dean & Deluca made a special appearance.

Many looked forward to the Chocolate Face-Off - a duel to the “death” between chefs, Beth Tully (Cocoa Dolce Artisan Chocolates), Hai Davies (Wichita Airport Hilton) and Fritz Knipschildt (Dean & Deluca) to make the ultimate chocolate creation. Miss Tully emerged as the winner, with her masterpiece: Dia de los Muertos.

If you missed out on Death by Chocolate, don’t fret! We’ve already set the date for next year’s event, Saturday, April 4. If you would like to be a sponsor of this up-and-coming signature event, it’s never too early to find out how. Call Liz Willis, EP’s head of development at 266-4274 for details.
