Christopher Elbow at CocoaBella.

​The upscale chocolate boutique known as CocoaBella (2102 Union at Webster) will celebrate its fifth anniversary next week with an Oktoberfest party featuring a tasting from the store's close pal, artisan chocolatier Christopher Elbow, whose creations are visual and edible jewels. A to-be-determined dark beer will be paired with four of Elbow's new fall flavors, which include pumpkin truffle and maple pecan. Space for this free tasting on Wednesday, Oct. 28 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. is limited to 40 guests, so it's wise to RSVP now. Call 931-6213.
