The 21st edition of Cioccolandia was held in Castel San Giovanni (Piacenza) on November 8 and 9, 2025, confirming its place as one of the sweetest events of the Piacenza autumn. In Piazza XX Settembre, about twenty master chocolatiers, along with creative hobbyists, local producers, and associations, offered their specialties.

Among the most anticipated moments were the cutting of the 24-meter-long chocolate salami and the Torta Rita, as well as the classic indulgence in profiteroles. Special guest chef Daniele Persegani presented two show cooking sessions under the arcades. Students from the Raineri Marcora hotel management institute were also involved, while children enjoyed the Cioccobimbi workshop in Piazza Casaroli.
