While you may not think of an artisan chocolate shop as a place to find consciously-applied science, Mr. Tango-Lowy will discuss how he and his staff apply basic principals of chemistry and physics on a daily basis at Dancing Lion Chocolate. From the chemistry of emulsions to how crystallization of chocolate--a six-phase polymorphic crystal--affects both flavor, finish and shelf- life, you'll learn some unusual applications of knowledge you might take for granted. You'll also learn a fair bit about chocolate! Originally submitted by: Aubrey C. Zerbach
