GV Wire videographer Jahz Tello’s sweet tooth was put to the test when putting together this story on Raphio Chocolate Factory, 783. E. Barstow Ave., near Hoover High School in Fresno.
While chocolate is one of life’s simple joys, making it is more complicated than you might think and definitely time-consuming.
“It’s very healthy. It’s sweet. It’s delicious. But there’s a lot of work involved,” says Raphio’s owner, Elisia Otavi-Makmur.

By the way, Raphio is offering guided tours at 2:30 p.m. Saturday for $12. More information is available at this Facebook link.
