The floor is open for LIVE participants to ask questions – AMA – about cocoa and chocolate. One focus of each month’s news is the current state of cocoa markets. This month I will be talking about what I learned on my recent trip to Brussels when it comes to chocolate flavor and my continuing pursuit of answers to the question, “Why Belgium?” --- ### **Links** and Resources | **MARKETS** | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [Futures](https://www.barchart.com/futures/quotes/CC%2A0/futures-prices?ref=thechocolatelife.com) / [Historical Prices](https://www.barchart.com/futures/quotes/CCZ24/historical-prices?orderBy=contractExpirationDate&orderDir=desc&ref=thechocolatelife.com) / [Moving Average](https://www.barchart.com/futures/quotes/CC%2A0/futures-prices?viewName=movingAverages&ref=thechocolatelife.com) / [Graph](https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/cocoa?ref=thechocolatelife.com) | | [Cocoa Radar](https://cocoaradar.com/more-cocoa-from-cameroon-and-rains-in-cote-divoire-add-to-market-volatility/?ref=thechocolatelife.com) | | **OTHER TOPICS Known in Advance** | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Remembering Ed Seguine | | New Learning on Chocolate Flavor Development in the Mouth | | [Brussells Overloaded Revisited](https://thechocolatelife.com/pinned/brussels-overloaded-revisited/) | | Belgian Brands Business Updates – Godiva and Marcolini | | The **EUDR**, the **[CSDDD](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate%5FSustainability%5FDue%5FDiligence%5FDirective?ref=thechocolatelife.com)** (Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive), and the **[CSRD](https://normative.io/insight/csrd-explained/?ref=thechocolatelife.com)** (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) | | Wildfires in Bolivia and Belize [Greenpeace](https://www.greenpeace.org/eu-unit/issues/climate-energy/47294/epp-fiddles-while-forests-burn/?ref=thechocolatelife.com) | 🔗 Links and resources to other topics covered in the episode will be updated **after* the episode airs. --- ### **Questions?** If you have questions or want to comment, you can do so live during the episode or, if you are a ChocolateLife member, you can add them in the Comments below at ***any*** time. --- ### **Episode Hashtags and Related Accounts to Follow** #News #AMA #cocoa #cacao #cacau #chocolate #chocolat #craftchocolate #PodSaveChocolate #PodSaveChoc #LaVidaCocoa #TheChocolateLife --- ### **Future Episodes** 🗓️ There are no future episodes scheduled at the time of publishing. --- ### **#PodSaveChocolate and #TheChocolateLifeLIVE Archives** **To read an archived post** and find the links to watch archived episodes, click on one of the bookmark cards, below.
