Beta Testing Tcho Chocolate

After reading the NYT article on Tcho, a chocolate start-up in San Francisco started by Timothy Childs and Louis Rossetto (one of the co-founders of Wired), I knew I had to pay a visit to their office on the Embarcadero.


From the outside, Tcho looks like any ordinary pierfront office, with smoked glass and a company sign on the side of the door, and inside it looks like any start-up I've ever set foot in -- a row of folding tables holding up computers, a reception area with a candy bowl, a conference room and a whiteboard. The difference between this office and any other startup office is obvious the moment you step in as the pleasant aroma of warm chocolate fills the air.


The chocolate mixture is version 0.10 -- they haven't yet finalized the mixture, but 50 gram bars are already available for purchase online from their website as long as you're willing to go to pick it up from their offices in San Francisco. Next year, they hope to start doing mail order as well as set up their storefront.
