Coming from a South-Asian background, the smell of cardamom, cumin, coriander, and fennel were spices that flowed through the house of our Chocolatier, but were rarely appreciated until Annie began to explore the intricacies of food in college. During her time at Boston University, she studied abroad in London and Amman with stops in Italy, Greece, Lebanon, Egypt, and China. During her travels around the world, she gained a special appreciation for food and began her love affair with the culinary arts.
