Glendale needs to find a bigger piece of property to host this festival. Maybe they should condemn the blocks and blocks of blight and then you will have more room. Besides the crowded aisles, this is not a real chocolate festival. It should be renamed the Cerrata chocolate festival. 90% of the booths selling chocolate are from Cerrata, including two main tents, one with the pizza and the other with all the frozen stuff. The rest of the chocolate was split between a few out of town vendors and then they made the real vendors sell one chocolate item as well. Chocolate lemonade was not good, but one place had a candy that was unusual and tasty. Otherwise, the romance novelists were a nice touch, but not mainstream enough to have any value at this kind of festival. Some of the bands were good and over by the music, there was more room to spread out.
