About SOOK CHOCOLATE
Sook Chocolate’s stunning creations rise from a marriage of the finest ingredients and the skill and imagination of Chocolatiers Keum Sook Park of Sook Pastry and Bertin Ventura.
Sook built her technical skills, while dreaming of chocolate, at the French Culinary Institute, the Institute of Culinary Education, the Center for Advanced Pastry Studies, and at the famous Payard Patisserie and Bistro in Manhattan.
After the success and recognition Sook gained with Sook Pastry, her French pastry establishment in Ridgewood, NJ, she reached a point of professional maturity where she was ready to realize her chocolate dreams. She called in Bertin Ventura, her former colleague at Payard, to create together the world-class artisanal Sook Chocolate.
With the perfect chocolate base and exceptional ingredients from around the world, Sook Chocolate has a texture and taste that is unique and extraordinary.
Sook recalls rare chocolate treats as a child in Korea. “I close my eyes and remember the delight of those simple chocolate treats. I want to go back and experience them as a child again. But sadly, I cannot go back."
Sook Chocolate is designed to create new chocolate memories.
