Come on time to get your pets in.About Socola ChocolatierFounded in 2001 by sisters Wendy and Susan Lieu, Socola (the Vietnamese word for “chocolate”) is an award-winning San Francisco chocolatier inspired by Vietnamese heritage, California creativity, and a spirit of adventure.The daughters of Vietnamese refugees, Wendy and Susan grew up watching their parents rebuild their lives after fleeing Vietnam as Boat People in 1981. Their family eventually settled in Northern California, where the sisters spent much of their childhood helping at their parents’ nail salon and learning the values of hard work, perseverance, and entrepreneurship.At 19 years old, Wendy taught herself how to make chocolate truffles and began selling them alongside Susan at local farmers markets in front of their parents’ nail salon. What began as a summer passion project eventually grew into a thriving business, rooted in family, culture, and craftsmanship.Today, Socola is more than chocolate—it is a celebration of heritage, storytelling, and unexpected flavor experiences.Agenda🕑: 12:00 PM - 01:00 PMAlpaca Meet & GreetHost: AlpacasInfo: Come meet some of Harriet's friends!
