巧克力衍生的8大职业

    巧克力雕刻家

    他们将成堆的巧克力变成沙滩上的感恩节兔子、美丽的白巧克力兰花、微缩的巧克力房子和摩天大楼。他们的作品点缀着婚礼蛋糕、慈善晚宴和奢华的商业活动。有些巧克力艺术家建立起了自己的品牌和声誉，还有一些则默默无闻地工作着。他们大部分为糕饼店或巧克力店工作。因为市场对巧克力雕刻的需求不是很旺盛，也并非必须，所以他们很多只是兼职工作。不过，最顶尖的巧克力雕刻家可以去全球参加竞赛，出席各种重大典礼，他们的职业道路和明星厨师差不多。

    Chocolate sculptors

    Out of hunks of chocolate, they fashion Easter bunnies on the beach, beautiful white chocolate orchids, miniature houses, and skyscrapers. Their work graces wedding cakes, charity parties, and luxurious corporate events. Some chocolate artists have developed brands and reputations while others work in obscurity. Many of them work for pastry or chocolate shops. And because demand isn't necessarily high for chocolate sculpture, many spend only a portion of their time sculpting. Yet the very best chocolate sculptors compete internationally, are flown in for major events, and carve out careers akin to celebrity chefs.
