Frenchman Vincent Vallee was crowned the world champion chocolate maker in Paris on Friday, beating top chocolatiers from around the globe in a three-day final.

“It’s the first time a French chef has won the competition,” said organisers Cacao Barry, who have held the tournament finals in the French capital since 2005. In second place was Japanese chocolatier Hisashi Onobayashi with Belgium’s Marijn Coertjens in third.

Over three days, 20 chefs -- national champions from all over the world -- fought for the top prize at the Salon du Chocolat trade fair in the French capital. The full story can be found here: http://goo.gl/Ocnt1w
