In the area between
Pisa and Prato, including Montopoli, Monsummano
Terme and Agliana, a great quality artisanal production
of chocolate has developed. Indeed, it is here that
the internationally renowned chocolatiers meet,
together with other new generation artisans that
will keep up the standard in the future. Talking
about quality chocolate means talking about Federico
Salza of Pisa, Simone de Castro of Montopoli (Pisa),
Andrea Slitti of Monsummano Terme (Pistoia), Corsini
of Pistoia, the pioneer of chocolate in Tuscany
Roberto Catinari, not to mention the world champion
of patisserie Luca Mannori, from Prato. During the
month of January these masters, and others, took
part in the display “Cioccolosità –
La qualità del cioccolato toscano”
(the quality of Tuscan chocolate), created to promote
and highlight the great black gold of the area,
which is described by the specialized press as the
“Chocolate Valley”.
