SAN MARCOS, Calif. (FOX 5/KUSI) — A holiday-themed pop-up in North County taking place this weekend is especially made for those with a sweet tooth and a penchant for chocolates.

French pastry chef and U.S. chocolate master Christophe Rull will join forces with Michelin-trained chocolatier Annaluna Karkar to host a two-day pop-up at Rull’s patisserie in San Marcos.

The event, which takes place on both Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., will feature a holiday menu of Karkar’s handcrafted chocolates alongside Rull’s pastries.
