Parisian inspiration

Local ChocolatierEstablished in 2017 by former architect David Upchurch, the eponymous David Upchurch Chocolatier, offers chocolate confections and pâte de fruit inspired by a year spent in Paris (where he tasted European chocolate for the first time) and years apprenticing with SFBA chocolatiers, Saratoga Chocolates and Recchiuti Confections.

A bean-to-bar devotee, David often uses small batch, single origin chocolate in his confections. He also sometimes includes chocolate in his pâte de fruit.
