I got a whole bag and a cocoa to go. My Chocolate con cacao fermentado was delicious. The staff member made it fresh with the traditional beater in pot. It was silky and decadent, rich chocolate. And it had a lovely grain from coarsely ground cacao nibs. I've never welcomed a texture like that but I now yearn for it.

Full disclosure, I didn't actually try a chocolate from here but only because there were only like…read more6 flavors available and the chocolate cases were practically barren. There was very little to no inventory of anything in the shop. There were two employees in the shop when we arrived but no one offered to help us or answer any questions. It was around 4pm on a Thursday and the hours said open until 8 so I am unsure if they were sold out for the day or that is what it is always like. We did try a popsicle and it was super mid.

I received this as a surprise gift, and it was perfect - how can a man go wrong with cosmetic inspired chocolates? The flavors are novel and inventive - before I inhaled them, I remember a bright orange/yellow swirly mango chimoy, and I even think there was a chapuline infused truffle which not only screams, but *chirps* Mexico City. Love the shape, the taste, and the aesthetic. Ghirardelli nor Belgium it is not, but makes up for it with whimsy - and - grasshoppers.

Great candy shop in a historic area Mexico city and one of the oldest candy shops in the city (if…read morenot the whole country!). There's a huge selection of sweets, so you are bound to find something you like. I tried a few items and thought they were good...sweet.but not wayyyy too sweet either. Overall, the shop prices its sweet very reasonably...if anything, it's very affordable for those American tourists with USD. The only minor draw back is it's really a to-go shop. You order your sweets and everything is in a bag/box. There's no place really to sit around and enjoy your treats in their shop.

We grabbed some scrumptious truffles, small filled hard candy balls, and chocolate covered coffee beans. It was def cacao. Per Belgium standards, I think it has to be 63% cacao to be called chocolate; not milk chocolate (think of a Toblerone). Don't get me wrong, I like a Toblerone, but I'm a dark chocolate guy ever since I hit my 1st Belgium Chocolatier's shop. Great job, and thank you ladies!!!!

Fermenting cacao increases the bioavailability of its nutrients and antioxidants. I got to try it…read moretwice in CDMX. This is my lesser favorite but it's honestly still so good. I can't go back to American hot chocolate and my wallet is cooked. The staff were quiet but kind and brought the drink to my table. I wasn't sure if I'm supposed to leave my cup so I brought it back down from the loft. The variety of chocolate available is impressive for a small shop. The prices are a bit high but beat what I can get at home for sure. I'm not enough a connoisseur to compare different chocolate qualities but I expect a pleasant graininess from small shards of cacao nibs but my brew was smooth as can be. However, the taste was pleasant and might be a plus for those who want a smoothly textured chocolate.

I was craving a chocolate caliente in the area, and was excited to try La Rifa which was located in…read morea cute corner full of other restaurants and other shops. This place is poppin', there's buskers, live music, and lots of people enjoying a meal on their work break, or just between friends catching up. I even peeped some cuties on a first date. The vibes are great for people watching and just enjoying some time alone. I went with their cacao fermantado con leche. Beware fermentado first timers, that your GI may be feeling mobile and explosive. I loved that they had different percentages of cacao so you can really customize. I was bummed that my drink tasted like the dish soap that was used to clean the cup. Chocolate caliente is literally my fave thing to try en Mexico so that was a disappointment. Regardless, nobody does chocolate caliente like Mexicanos! I also treated myself to a galleta con chispas shaped in a cute little dinosaur, but I would skip that. It wasn't really tasty and was a bit stale. I had my eye on their brownie and that decadent cake, I should've gone with that instead. In all, cute spot, low-key vibes, and lots of single origin, trace-able and local chocolate which is ALWAYS the energy we are bringing as globally-conscious travellers/turistas. Would def come again.
