Chocolate Fantasy Ball

Chocolate-covered toffee. Chocolate-chip cookies. Chocolate fudge. Chocolate brownies. Chocolate truffles. Chocolate cupcakes. Various loose morsels of brown and white chocolate. Several chocolate-strawberry incarnations. A chocolate bird sculpture. With all the goodies that await attendees of the annual Chocolate Fantasy Ball, it's easy to wonder: why have dessert at dinner anyway? Celebrating the 35th year of its beneficiary, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Arkansas, the Feb. 14 ball was oversold this year, forcing organizers to squeeze a few extra tables in to the ballroom of the Little Rock Marriott Hotel.
