Anne Isham is an independent chocolatier, writer, storyteller, domestic philosopher and adventurer. She earned her Professional Chocolatier Certification, with Honors, from Ecole Chocolat, Professional School of Chocolate Arts in Vancouver, B.C.
Third in a family of eleven children, and raised in Texas, Anne’s views on life and chocolate were shaped by experiences growing up in that riotous sibling circus. A genetic propensity for chocolate consumption, passed down by both grandmothers, primarily accounts for her chococentric worldview.
Her adventurous spirit led Anne to test her theories on chocolate’s enhancement of strength, stamina, endurance and personal resolve while exploring remote and exotic places, including a successful trek to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, bicycling the back roads of The Netherlands and a recent trek of the Inca Trail in Peru.
The newly revised and expanded edition of her book:
Eat(More)Chocolate – Lose Weight(Anyway): The Chocoholic’s Survival Guide and Practical Handbook” will be out in September ’07.
Anne also co-authored “SportsFood: A Cookbook and Nutrition Guide for Endurance Athletes” in 1980.
