John Scharffenberger, a Berkeley graduate and co-founder of Scharffen Berger chocolates, was just named CEO of a quite different enterprise—Hodo Soy Beanery.
Scharffenberger first discovered the company, which makes soy milk, tofu and ready-to-eat soy products, at a Berkeley farmer’s market. The chocolate company he helped found—which produces the Clog’s favorite chocolate-flavored chapstick, was bought by Hershey in 2005 and its Berkeley factory closed in 2009.
Here’s hoping he can get tofu products to be just as delicious.
