From Theatre to Chocolate: Meet Rita, the founder of Carambole chocolate atelier in Amsterdam

Carambole founder and chocolatier Rita Zamoshchina has been interviewed by Connecto, an international travel and transfer platform, for its series of conversations with people and businesses offering distinctive experiences to travellers.

The interview explores Rita's unusual journey from a fifteen-year career in theatre to the world of craft chocolate, her artistic approach to creating handmade bonbons, and her fascination with chocolate makers from around the world. It also introduces readers to Carambole's chocolate experiences in Amsterdam, where visitors can discover the world of craft chocolate through guided tastings, chocolate pairings and hands-on workshops.

In the conversation with Connecto Travel, Rita talks about the relationship between theatre, storytelling and chocolate, explaining why she sees a bonbon as a miniature work of art. She also explains the bean-to-bar movement and how Carambole works with couvertures produced by independent chocolate makers around the world.

The interview offers a glimpse into the Carambole tasting experience: discovering around 20 different craft chocolate bars, learning about cocoa origins and chocolate-making techniques, and exploring unexpected flavour combinations.

"For visitors to Amsterdam, Carambole offers a more personal alternative to visiting a large chocolate factory — an opportunity to meet a chocolatier, taste exceptional chocolate and, depending on the experience, create something themselves".
