It may be profiling a little, but don’t moms love chocolate? Seems to me that it’s the perfect weekend to have a chocolate festival!

The Colorado Chocolate Festival is back with chocolate bars, chocolate fountain, chocolate cake, chocolate milk, bonbons, fudge, toffee, chocolate spa, jewelry and gifts.

You do have to purchase taste tickets for samples at $10/dozen, and they recommend 24 taste tickets per person at this festival, due to the huge volume of chocolate. Each vendor decides on their own sample sizes.

Orbitz Travel named this event one of “The 5 Coolest Food Fairs in the US.”

The festival this Mother’s Day weekend is at the Crowne Plaza DIA Convention Center. The show is Friday and Saturday. Admission is $10 and kids 12 and under are free.

Get tickets right at the door of the event.
