In this heartwarming episode of The Hoel Truth Podcast, we sit down with Dustin Cornett, co-owner of the Chocolat Café in Rushville, Indiana, and founder of the Midwest Craft Chocolate Festival.
From growing up in eastern Kentucky to starting a family, running a bed and breakfast, and eventually moving to Rushville — Dustin shares his incredible journey of how chocolate, family, and community came together in one small Indiana town. He opens up about:
-Failing his grandmother’s candy recipes… until a key memory unlocked the magic
-Self-teaching chocolate-making after living in Japan
-The process of launching an international chocolate festival in a town of 6,000 people
-What makes real chocolate different — and better — than mass-produced bars
-His family's passion-led entrepreneurship
