Models were seen wearing chocolate outfits as part of the collaboration between fashion designers and sweets producers during the opening show.
"We wanted to give this edition a spirit of rebirth to illustrate this need to relive intense moments of sharing. As I have often said, in the event industry, we found ourselves for 19 months like chocolate makers without cocoa, wondering when the new harvest will take place," said Gerard Palacios, Salon Du Chocolat CEO.
Attendees will also get the chance to talk with chocolate producers, cocoa farmers and look at chocolate sculptures.
There will also be a Pastry Show in which 30 chefs bake their favourite pastries using chocolate.
