    the industrial version of wonka's river? ;)
    Melia R.

    A friend set up a "chocolate making" class for us. We had a day full of fun activities, and Araya's class is what everyone is still talking about. I put "chocolate making" in quotes because really each "student" will be adding toppings of choice to 4 milk chocolate bars. And learning a lot of surprising (to us) facts about chocolate. And tasting some of Araya's handiwork (with wine bring if you so desire; we did). Maybe we're a bunch of nerds, but we were fascinated by our charismatic host's telling of (sometimes shocking) chocolate history. Araya's chocolates are rather tasty, so the pairings were easily a hit. It was fun to invent our own topping combos for the bars we "made". (All milk chocolate because darker chocolate is less forgiving to work with.) If you're a fan of certain toppings, you may wanna bring 'em in with you. If I take the class again, I'm gonna bring my own bacon... The folks running this shop are all so warm, friendly, and helpful. We had a blast in our class, then easily justified trading more cash for more of their artisanship. There are other storefronts in the Houston area, but this location includes the "lab" where classes are held.

    Their macarons are shipped in & frozen. You'll have to wait about 15 minutes before you can eat it, BUT ITS AMAZING! Most macarons loses it's flavor and is just sweet. BUT these keeps the actual flavor very well and is not as sweet as other macaron's shop in houston. As i was waiting, another guest asked about diabetic. The artisan was very helpful and knowledgeable. She suggest agave over honey, which you can just preorder. She was also very sweet and patience to help us find the type of chocolates that we like. I would totally come back :)

    Came here the other day. I been wanting to go since it had some pretty good reviews and it was great. They specialize in chocolate. But also make some delicious good macaroons. They had in house ice cream they make themselves. Which k wanted to try but was in a hurry. If you are in the area stop on by! You won't regret it!

    This place has my all time favorite flavors of chocolate! They're so beautiful you don't want to eat them but then when you bite into them you can't stop LOL.

    I'm OBSESSED with this shop. They have THE BEST macarons in Houston/Katy area. I am a macaron…read moreconnoisseur and these are by far the best ones I've tried...I used to travel into Houston to get macarons from Tout Suite or Sweet in city centre until I tasted the quality and LOVE of Sweet Intensity desserts. the cotton candy and crème brûlée are my favorites. They are in the $2.50-$4.00 range per macaron but totally worth it. YOU HAVE TO TRY OR YOU ARE MISSING OUT!!!

    I came here for the first time for a UYE Coffee & Convos, hosted by long time Elite Yelper Sara…read more Located in Katy, in a shopping strip with other restaurants. It's a cutsey shop with an IG photo wall op, nicely decorated. A cafe with good amount of items both hot and cold. Service- was 5 stars. The owners are a husband/wife duo, awe. One of the owner, Wei (sp) rang me up, and helped me with any questions I had while ordering at the counter. She never rushed me or appeared annoyed as I asked multi questions. She gave service with a smile, which I love. Another staff member checked on us frequently throughout our stay, which I appreciated. Drink- I was torn between many options. There speciality menu had alot of cool things. I prefer hot drinks over cold. I asked Wei for a determination between Rose Latte and the Lavender Latte, she said if I wanted more floral to go with Rose. I haven't seen Rose Latte on a menu before, so I decided to go with that. She said the drink comes with 2 to 3 pumps of syrup. I wanted light sugar content, so I went with 1 pump. And perhaps that was the downfall of my own making. I didn't taste any Rose, but it was fine regular Latte. Food - I ordered the turkey, pesto & cheese croissant. And it was yummy. Would recommend. I would give this place another go if in the area. I liked the owners hospitality.
