There is a wide selection of filled truffles in dark and milk, some with alcoholic flavors, some not. My German's decent but I was missing some specialty vocabulary; the ladies serving us were patient and my companion and I left happy. It's a lovely little shop and the chocolate was excellent, as well as packed so that I could jam it into my luggage and get it home, which was appreciated.

The incredibly sweet woman behind the counter helped us with all of our questions, let me taste 99% chocolate and even sent us off with complimentary truffles.

Asparagus chocolate? Oh Europa, you so crazy... and I…read morereally, really, really like it. We came here after lattes at a nearby deli and were wanting to grab just a few sweets and you know how that goes... we left with a 1/2 backpack full of goodies for around $12. Not too shabby. The shop also sells wine and other candies but we were on a strictly chocolates mission. Their entire selection beautiful. The kind of chocolates that look like they belong in a wealthy old lady's curio cabinet. All the family jewels on display. The woman working in the shop spoke no English and we spoke none of the native language but managed to get by with only a few things getting lost in translation... like the price. We thought the price listed was per piece of chocolate, so at first we were being kind of modest with our order, but then when she rung us up and our bill was basically nothing, we started to add a butt-load of stuff on. Matcha green tea chocolate bar, liqueur chocolates... you name it, we had the shop girl toss it in our bag. So, how was the asparagus chocolate? Good. No very asparagus-y, but my mouth did tingle when I finished eating it and my pee did smell a little funny after. Just kidding... maybe. ** Extra points earned because this is one of the only places we went to the Czech Republic that happily accepted credit cards.

It was featured on travel shows as things to check out in Passau, and it was also suggested in the "Viking Daily", the ship's newsletter. Everything is house made. They have all sorts of preserves, from strawberry, pear, apricot, cherry, and so many more. Customers were encouraged to taste the preserves before buying, and Stephen said the blackberry was really good. In addition to the shelves and shelves of preserves, they even had honey, chocolate sauce and mustards! One particular jar of preserves caught Stephen's eye: Glühwein! So, naturally we purchased a jar of that... And perhaps a few others to bring home. The jellies are in glass, so make sure you have suitcase room, or plan on handcarrying it. We wrapped it well in the carry on suitcase, and it made it home just fine.

The store employees were friendly and helpful. They tried their best to help translate a few items since my German is rather poor. Most of the jams were available to try as a sample, which made it super hard to decide what to purchase since everything was rather tasty! Due to luggage space, I only could buy one of the jams. I ended up purchasing the Kirsch-Amaretto jam, which is absolutely delicious!
