They source and produce single origin chocolate, each region with it's own very distinct taste. Some have natural blueberry, others cherry and others raisin/plum. Ask for a free tasting at the counter and taste the differences for yourself! You can take a free self-led tour anytime or sign up for a low cost guided tour. We took a self guided tour and they make it easy to follow along. There are QR codes at each station that provide text and videos. The chocolate is truly exceptional tasting. It isn't the most inexpensive option, but if you appreciate chocolate, this knocks the socks of store bought chocolate, even the higher end varieties at a typical food market. There is an attached coffee shop that serves chocolate drinks made with their chocolate. I highly recommend going their and ordering a sipping chocolate...it's heavenly!

I just love that they are truly bean to bar (you can literally watch them sit and sort the beans, grind them, make the chocolate and all other steps of the process). The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient -- and while prices are a tad higher than your basic chocolates, they are reasonable for the high quality of premium treats you are going to get Just an additional thing I did not mention in my previous review: Their packaging is also great. Not only do they print off the individual names of chocolates you got if you make a box, there is a QR code which when you scan, takes you to the visual and descriptive online guide of all their flavors. Highly, highly recommend, and cannot see any reason why I would not make efforts to continue returning!

She even gave me a free dark chocolate truffle to try. Also great for gifting. Chocolate lovers, definitely check this place out!

The store is such a happy place for kids and there are nice eclectic collection of mugs and t-shirts if you have been many times. I enjoyed the conversation with the owner. We wanted gift box candy - while they don't have too fancy boxes, but they wrap them in a unique way. We will be here again and there are a nice bakery nearby too. So the stop can be made a lot more worthwhile when planned. I would love for them to hold a Yelp event and promote the store more. This is a totally hidden gem in Cary.

There will never be anything bad to say about Reginald and his delicious chocolates!…read more He does what he does very well, and suffice it to say that if you are ever unsatisfied he will go above and beyond to make things right! He's been around for years and I don't know how he's been able to remain such a hidden gem! A couple of tips based on my recent ordering experience: if you order in advance to pick up, maybe give him a call directly a day or two ahead of time. I used the online ordering system and apparently he only gets one reminder right when the order was placed. If I hadn't placed an order for my husband's Valentine's box right when I though of it in late January, I would have never remembered to do it later. Unfortunately, this meant that Reginald completely forgot to make my order and when I showed up in the front room of his house on Feb 12, he was befuddled. No worries for me: late chocolates are still chocolates, and I don't know anyone that could complain about what happened next: he TRIPLED my order and shipped my chocolates out to me for free the next week. We are STILL enjoying Valentine's chocolates, and now my hubs is forced to share with me. Not only will he have my business for LIFE, but I'll always spring for at least the 18-box so that we can share. Now on to the chocolate: we both agree that despite being an odd-seeming combination, the peanut butter and caramel chocolates are absolutely amazing. The classic is a good standby, and we also LOVE the Genius (made with Guinness) truffles. While I was waiting in his front room, I got to sample a sea salt caramel, which is delicious as well. We can't wait to keep working our way through our box of chocolates, and I get the feeling that this will be a go-to gift on holidays to come. You really can't go wrong with Azurelise!

I had high hopes for this place but they were greatly exceeded. This was arguably the best meatball sandwich I have ever had! I was not expecting that from a place in Angier, NC and I don't give that designation lightly. The meatballs were perfection, served in a nice crusty roll with fresh mozzarella and a fantastic sauce. I want to drive back down there just thinking about it and I live 45 minutes away. I also had a cannoli and it was exceptional as well. I'm a cannoli junky and this one did not disappoint. I often don't like the ones where the shell is coated in chocolate because they're often some manufactured shell dipped in waxy chocolate. Not the case here. The quality of the chocolate this shell was dipped in was excellent. If you're in the area and want a great Italian sandwich, absolutely stop by.

Bake-wise, this place was A-OK, especially for the price. Hear me out - nothing was amazing, but everything was better than you'd make at home. Nothing was visually stunning, but everything was good. I MUCH PREFER something to be good than to be visually stunning, so I'm fine with this. In fact, places where everything looks "perfect" tend to lack on taste - largely because the pastries have been sitting out getting "perfected" for so long that they suffer. Taste-wise, I will say that the turnovers were a bit soggy, and the muffins (which were delicious!) had berries that sunk . The former is important, the latter is being nit picky. I offer it as hopefully constructive feedback. VERY FRIENDLY staff. Good selection of pastries. And priced well.
