My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s.

Lieu’s mom was pregnant with her when her family left Vietnam as refugees in 1982. Her parents spent two years in a refugee camp in Kuala Lumpur—where Wendy was born—before they eventually settled in Emeryville, CA. “I escaped many times by boat, in a small boat, and finally I made it,” says Tom Lieu, Wendy’s father, in a recent phone interview. Once there, Wendy’s mother learned to do nails and her father delivered papers. After years of saving, her parents opened their own nail salon. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_77646\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1536px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Chocolates.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Chocolates.jpg\" alt=\"A tray of chocolates from Socola Chocolatier.

She scoured cookbooks and received “weird gifts” like a sandwich press, and even made her own French bread when she was nine.

How did they make that?’ I loved to create things, but I couldn’t figure out how to make chocolate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She started poring over magazine recipes, experimenting with ingredients, and saving up the wages she got from working at the Hello Kitty store to buy chocolate-making supplies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her big break came when their Santa Rosa neighbor, a marketing person for KSRO, tried her chocolates. Within a week, Lieu found herself on the radio talking about her hobby and newly-minted chocolate business. “Everyone we knew was calling in and they were like, ‘Wendy!

As with most immigrant parents, Lieu’s father’s desire for a better life for their children played a very significant part in his view of the sister’s budding business. “’I didn’t bring you to the U.S. so that you could make chocolates,’” Lieu recalls her father telling her. Her father wanted her to go to college and get a stable job. Lieu said that was the toughest part—seeking her father’s approval. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So Lieu went on to college, graduated and pursued a career at a major consulting firm. However, chocolate remained her side hustle, and passion.

It wasn’t the challenge of owning a business that worried her, or the boys’ club of chocolatiers. With names like Joseph Schmidt, Jacques Torres, and Dolf Teuscher, the world of chocolate is a mostly-white, male boys’ club. “I taught myself and sometimes it feels like I’m not as credible as other people, but my chocolates speak for me,” Lieu said. “Delicately daring” is how she describes her chocolates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lieu was worried about how her father would react. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They were driving from Houston to Austin when she broke the news—that she was quitting her job and focusing on chocolates full-time. “If I put 100 percent of my energy into it I don’t know what it could be but it could be something amazing and I would rather try for that—to see what that unknown is going to be.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His reaction was one she did not expect. “He started tearing up and then was like ‘That is exactly what me and your mom said when we left Vietnam. Do it.” Lieu still gets teary-eyed recalling that moment of her dad’s acceptance. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_77650\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 911px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Wendy-and-Tom-Lieu.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Wendy-and-Tom-Lieu.jpg\" alt=\"Wendy with her father, Tom Lieu.

Lieu found herself at the age of 19 selling homemade chocolates at a farmers’ market in Santa Rosa. She, along with her sister, Susan Lieu, the business and marketing guru behind Socola, later started selling their chocolates—in flavors such as sriracha, guava and ca phe sua (Vietnamese coffee)—wholesale to specialty shops like Bi-Rite Market and supermarkets like Whole Foods. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_77648\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Socola-Valentines-e1391565034475.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Socola-Valentines-e1391565034475.jpg\" alt=\"Socola Chocolatier offers a Valentine’s Day selection that includes chocolates with “love” in various languages.

Lieu’s mom was pregnant with her when her family left Vietnam as refugees in 1982. Her parents spent two years in a refugee camp in Kuala Lumpur—where Wendy was born—before they eventually settled in Emeryville, CA. “I escaped many times by boat, in a small boat, and finally I made it,” says Tom Lieu, Wendy’s father, in a recent phone interview. Once there, Wendy’s mother learned to do nails and her father delivered papers. After years of saving, her parents opened their own nail salon. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_77646\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1536px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Chocolates.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/02/Chocolates.jpg\" alt=\"A tray of chocolates from Socola Chocolatier.
