????巧克力雕刻家

????他們將成堆的巧克力變成沙灘上的感恩節(jié)兔子、美麗的白巧克力蘭花、微縮的巧克力房子和摩天大樓。他們的作品點綴著婚禮蛋糕、慈善晚宴和奢華的商業(yè)活動。有些巧克力藝術(shù)家建立起了自己的品牌和聲譽，還有一些則默默無聞地工作著。他們大部分為糕餅店或巧克力店工作。因為市場對巧克力雕刻的需求不是很旺盛，也并非必須，所以他們很多只是兼職工作。不過，最頂尖的巧克力雕刻家可以去全球參加競賽，出席各種重大典禮，他們的職業(yè)道路和明星廚師差不多。

????Chocolate sculptors

????Out of hunks of chocolate, they fashion Easter bunnies on the beach, beautiful white chocolate orchids, miniature houses, and skyscrapers. Their work graces wedding cakes, charity parties, and luxurious corporate events. Some chocolate artists have developed brands and reputations while others work in obscurity. Many of them work for pastry or chocolate shops. And because demand isn't necessarily high for chocolate sculpture, many spend only a portion of their time sculpting. Yet the very best chocolate sculptors compete internationally, are flown in for major events, and carve out careers akin to celebrity chefs.
