Chocolate purveyors from Arizona and around the nation gather in Glendale for this award-winning festival, which celebrates not only chocolate, but romance and the arts as well. Chocolate confections will include items such as chocolate-covered bacon, chocolate-covered churros, chocolate-covered twinkies, chocolate-covered key lime pie, fried ice cream with chocolate and strawberries, chocolate-covered crepes and much more.
The Chocolate Affaire is sponsored by Arizona’s famous candy makers, Cerreta’s. The candy factory will offer tours all weekend, so visitors can get a behind-the-scenes look at how the chocolatiers create everyone’s favorite candy.
In addition, the festival has become the largest gathering of national romance novelists in the Southwest. This symposium of literary romantics offers fans the opportunity to get up close and personal with authors, as well as the chance to attend free writing workshops given by the experts.
Families  with  children will enjoy myriad activities, including hands-on arts and  crafts,  face-painting and a rock-climbing wall. Horse-drawn carriage  rides will be  available throughout the weekend to take couples or  families on a scenic,  charming ride through the historic Catlin Court  district.    
Event hours are   Friday 5 - 10 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday noon to 5  p.m. The  event is located in the heart of Historic Downtown Glendale,  in Murphy Park,  located at 58th and Glendale avenues.
