If you called the husband and wife team of Dominique and Cindy Duby a “sweet” couple you’d be right. And if you also called their Richmond-based business, Wild Sweets, one of the top-ranked chocolatiers in the world, move to the head of the class.

That’s because their work was judged to be among the globe’s best 24 in the business, according to Chocolate - The reference standard - The Chocolate Tester Book by Georg Bernardini.

The comprehensive resource book reviewed and taste-tested more than 550 brands and 4,000 products from 70 countries.

The ranking is based on various stringent evaluation criteria and awards, and is similar in esteem to the stars bestowed on restaurants featured in the Michelin Guide.
