All rise for Utah's chocolate queen: Ruth Kendrick.

The Ogden resident and her "Chocolot" line of artisan confections won 8 of the 12 categories at last week's Utah Chocolate Show competition.

Her success is no surprise in culinary circles. Kendrick has been making chocolate for more than 50 years, has written a book about candy making and has taught classes all over Utah. At last week's competition she won best milk chocolate, best dark chocolate, best truffle, best dipped or enrobed chocolate, best molded chocolate and best toffee.

Chocolot also won a special distinction for exquisite artistry and exceptional taste for chocolates like the Gianduja, pictured here, made with Italian hazelnuts toasted and ground and combined with milk chocolate ganache. (For anyone who read my post last week about being one of the judges, this is entry A-4, the one I've been craving.)

Chocolate lovers can get an idea of Kendrick's talents and buy some of her offerings at her website: sweetchocolot.com
Kendrick didn't sweep of the entired chocolate competition. Rebecca's won in the milk chocolate caramel category; Condies had the best milk chocolate fudge and Amano Artisan Chocolate won for artistic merit in packaging and judge's honors for artisanal chocolate.
