🥢「美」味在台灣：美國食材農民曆 🍽
今天是美國的巧克力日 (正好趕得上萬聖節)！🍫
巧克力由可可樹種子製成，是絕佳的抗氧化食物。美國是台灣最大的巧克力進口來源國，美國M&M'S與Hershey's巧克力在台灣廣受歡迎。台灣當然也生產高品質的巧克力，2017年的國際巧克力大賽金牌就第一次獎落台灣，由福灣莊園生產的鐵觀音黑巧克力奪得頭籌。台灣用「產地直送到餐桌」的巧克力贏得國際評審的心 ♥️
🥢America’s Food on Taiwan’s Table: The Food Calendar 🍽
October 28 is National Chocolate Day (also just in time for Halloween)! Chocolate is made from the seed of the cocoa trees; it is one of the best sources of antioxidants on the planet. The United States is the #1 supplier of chocolate to Taiwan. U.S. chocolate icons M&M’s and Hershey’s Kiss ranked as the #1 and #2 top candies of all time. Taiwan also produces award-winning chocolates. In 2017, Taiwan won its first gold medal at the International Chocolate Awards. The Tie Guan Yin tea-flavored dark chocolate by Fu Wan Chocolate, Taiwan’s unique tree-to-bar chocolate, was a favorite among the judges.
[#甜點新聞 / News] 奪下亞太區超過半數獎牌，台灣巧克力再度橫掃世界巧克力大賽 / Winning over half of the prizes, Taiwan chocolates and chocolatiers sweep through International Chocolate Awards Asia Pacific Competition (English below)
今天是台灣的國慶日，同樣也有來自台灣巧克力界的好消息與大家分享。
昨日在屏東縣政府的協辦與支持下，世界巧克力大賽（International Chocolate Awards, 以下簡稱 ICA）亞太區決賽結果於屏東縣立圖書總館發表。#台灣品牌以驚人的氣勢奪下103面_超過半數的獎牌，在 198 個獎項中，拿下共 22 金、32 銀、35 銅與 14 個特別獎。
由於比賽重點為「bean-to-bar」巧克力（從可可豆至巧克力皆在當地生產），而屏東正是台灣可可樹種植面積最大的區域，頒獎典禮在此舉行最為名實相符。屏東巧克力業者們也不負眾望，奪下 7 金、11 銀、9 銅與 8 項特別獎，其中 福灣巧克力 Fu Wan Chocolate 表現最為耀眼，囊括此地區中所有的金獎與特別獎，共7 金、9 銀、4 銅與 8 項特別獎，其中包含黑巧克力類別的最大獎「Best in Competition」（競賽最佳獎）。
今年的亞太區比賽中，最受到矚目的就是「茶」這個元素。台灣是世界知名的茶產地，而台灣的巧克力業者將對茶的了解完美地發揮在巧克力製作中，以技術和品味驚艷了 ICA 的評審。福灣巧克力便以台灣紅玉茶 62% 黑巧克力、台灣紅烏龍 62% 黑巧克力、台灣鐵觀音 62% 黑巧克力、紅烏龍 56% 牛奶巧克力、碳焙烏龍 56% 牛奶巧克力、玫瑰荔枝東方美人 56% 牛奶巧克力、鐵觀音 56% 牛奶巧克力等奪得多項獎項。而以「喫的台灣茶」、「喫的台灣咖非」系列知名的 COFE，今年也大有斬獲，結合水果與茶的「紅烏龍鳳梨」獲得風味白巧克力類金獎與特別獎、「包種茶芒果」獲得銅獎，「碳焙烏龍茶」、「東方美人」也獲得銀獎。COFE 的茶巧克力製成，並非為常見的「將茶粉或茶葉加入巧克力中」，而是「以茶直接取代可可固形物」，再加上可可脂成型。這個概念與技術也在今年獲得特殊肯定，「冷壓可可脂」獲得可可脂、成長中國家、直接交易等三項金獎。
如果你還記得，好食光 Keya Jam 的創辦人柯亞，曾經在我的專訪中提到「#以擔任國際比賽評審的方式_建立台灣自己的論述與評鑑標準」，ICA 比賽便是這個策略最好的實務操作案例。由於台灣的巧克力業者、職人與評鑑專家成功地憑藉專業認證進入評審團中，台灣的特色、風味與希望彰顯的價值便能夠在國際比賽中發揮影響力、進一步影響整個巧克力產業未來發展的軌跡。願台灣的甜點、餐飲產業與專業職人都能和台灣巧克力一樣，成功找到自己的位置、影響並領導世界。

The award ceremony of International Chocolate Awards Asia-Pacific Bean-to-Bar and Chocolatier Competition took place yesterday (9th October, 2020) in Pingtung, Taiwan. Winning 103 awards, including 22 golds, 32 silvers, 35 bronzes and 14 special awards, which over half of the total 198 ones, Taiwan’s definitely got a glorious victory and starts to occupy an important position in world chocolate scene.
Supported by and collaborated with the Pingtung county government, the competition involved 883 entries of 148 chocolatiers from 14 countries. As specified, this competition features bean-to-bar chocolates and Pingtung, where most of the cocoa plantations are in Taiwan, naturally enjoys an advantage. Chocolatiers from this region have won 7 golds, 11 silvers, 9 bronzes, as well as 8 special awards. Fu Wan Chocolate, the biggest local chocolatier has got 7 golds, 9 silvers, 4 bronzes and 8 special awards.
Tea chocolates is the highlight this year. As Taiwan is renowned for its tea, its chocolatiers have apparently utilised their knowledge, skills and taste about it. Their capability to bring them into full play has definitely impressed the jury. Red Jade Tea 62% dark chocolate, Red Oolong tea 62% dark chocolate, Tie-Guang-Ying 62% dark chocolate, etc., contribute to Fu Wan's triumph. COFE, a brand specialised in tea and coffee chocolates is another example. Instead of adding tea and coffee into chocolate, they replace cocoa solids with tea or coffee, which adds an irresistible and incomparable depth to the products. Their latest series that combines a variety of teas and fruits leads to a great success. The “Red Oolong & Pineapple” white chocolate has won itself 1 gold and 1 special awards.

Tea appreciation, also called “Cha Dao” in Mandarin, it he art of Chinese Tea preparation and includes the most extensive chapters from learning how to brew a good cup of tea with the proper use of drinking utensils accordingly to the type of tea leaves. Also comprehensively including the rich heritage of Chinese customs that compliments this refined art form, the learning curve is one that is never ending. From the many healthy benefits and the myriad of intricate Chinese Tea flavours available, to the etiquette of drinking tea, as well as the long history that is tie to the development of the process of tea consumption, this art is one that I am never ever tired and sick of learning.
Tea Plus at the Gardens in Mid Valley Megamall is one tea palour at the best convenience for anyone who’d like to try appreciating the many different flavor profile of Chinese tea. Take note that prices maybe a little steep but is totally justifiable. This isn’t my first visit but I had as much fun as every other visits I previously paid to this tea bar.
