OUR BEGINNINGS


St. Stephen's Chocolate Festival began in 1985. The Chocolate Festival,together with The Chocolate Museum, has focused attention on our community's valuable and interesting history. The town of St. Stephen was officially registered in 2000 as "Canada's Chocolate Town". The first festival committee created the idea of a festive symbol, "The Great Chocolate Mousse". The Chocolate Mousse has become a popular figure during the festival with both young and old chocolate lovers. In 1994 The Great Chocolate Mousse married Tiffany and in 2009 they adopted Teddy. The Chocolate Mousse family bring out the child in all of us and is a staple of Chocolate Fest. Look for them at all the events; give them a hug and have your photo taken with them.
