This is going to be a very good week. Why? Because it’s #Choctoberfest! Today, October 5th is the first day of a week long event celebrating all things chocolate!
#Choctoberfest is a virtual event put together by The PinterTest Kitchen. Bloggers from around the world will be posting their favorite chocolate recipes, and you’ll get a chance to win some awesome prizes. What’s not to love?
Here’s what this event is all about!
#Choctoberfest would not be possible without our sponsors, starting with our 2015 Gold Sponsor, Imperial Sugar. Imperial Sugar has been a trusted name in family kitchens since 1843. Their sugar products and sweeteners are made from non-GMO cane sugar and ensure consistently delicious results. We’ll be using Imperial Sugar whenever we use sugar in our recipes this week, and can’t wait to share the sweetness with you! (You may have seen my Instagram post; I’ve got plenty of Imperial Sugar to make sweet treats for a while!)
You can find Imperial Sugar on Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and more. Make sure you visit the recipes section of their website for some sweet inspiration, and you can also find coupons on their website if you want to try out Imperial Sugar yourself.

I love chocolate chunk cookies – made with a good chocolate bar instead of chips!
The darker the better! I’ve had 92% cacao and loved it!
Dark chocolate is where it’s at for me.
I really enjoy reading about all the tempting recipes…I’m going to make the Chocolate peanut butter pie…I’ll have to borrow my sister’s tart pan…she’s a baker and has quite a few baking pans and gizmo’s…I’ll probably have to share some of the pie…but I”m sure it’s well worth the trouble…Yeah I can’t wait!!!”smiling here”
Um, vegan chocolate treats!? Sign me up!!!
