I don't like chocolate but their stuff is amazing. You can tell the quality from the first bite. Their cake slices are not too sweet and I loved their truffle cookies. This is a Sacramento brand so I share this with my guests. The store is really cute with some seatings and their service is great. read more

I haven't been here in years, and it's grown a lot since then. It used to be a small shop with just a display case, but they've since expanded. They're still known for their chocolates and macaron ice cream which is what originally brought me in all these years all but now they also offer other items like cake slices, pastries, and even affogatos. I recently took my kids here for macaron ice cream at their request. I'd recommend letting it thaw a bit before digging in--it makes a big difference. I tried the salted caramel, cake which was good, though a little too chocolaty for my taste. Prices feel fair for the area and what you're getting. Definitely worth checking out if you're nearby! read more

I LOVE Ginger Elizabeth Chocolates! This location off J street is so cute. With an inviting exterior and cute, pink interior, you just cannot go wrong. I love getting ice cream and hot chocolate from here. Everything is delicious. I have not been disappointed once and I have been to this location quite a few times. Every person who works here is so kind. They greet you, make you feel welcome and are helpful. There's street parking and I believe you have to pay. It is worth it though because this place is so good. I highly recommend you check it out! Bring family and friends too, the more the merrier! read more

Having a local chocolate shop like Ginger Elizabeth's is so nice. It's located in Midtown on J, between 24th and 25th and while the location is small they do have some indoor and outdoor tables to enjoy your items right away. Inside they have some of their shelf stable gift items like jams, hot chocolate kits, and gift boxes. Once you reach the counter you'll find macarons, gourmet chocolates, fresh pastries, and cookies. They also sell hot chocolate and coffee. Their hot chocolate has been rated some of the best in the country. It is very decadent and delicious and the small size is a perfect indulgent treat. I also love their coffee options and their rose option of coffee and hot chocolate are my favorites. On my latest visit I bought some gifts for a friend and a slice of their Salty Caramel Chocolate Cake along with some hot chocolate to bring home for my husband and I. The team here is always friendly and efficient and on my last visit they were so busy (with Valentine's day) but were all in good spirits. There's a reason this is a Sacramento staple. read more

It was overcast and chilly and friend recommended we check out the hot chocolate as it was supposedly rated #1 in the country. I love dark chocolate and the sipping chocolate was recommended. There is the option of topping it with marshmallow or whipped cream - mine was topped with both. The small size was plenty - very rich and not too sweet which was surprising given the marshmallow and whipped cream topping. Quite decadent. Also ordered a 6-piece chocolate box. Can't remember all the flavors I ordered - only that I went with all dark chocolate. Can't say any of the flavors in particular stood out - maybe the almond one and the one with a dark chocolate ganache. Looks like their cookies are also quite popular as we observed many coming in to get those. Would definitely return for the sipping chocolate and to try their cookies. read more

We finally made it here (in the rain -- well worth it) to try the seasonal peppermint hot chocolate. The store itself is beautiful, warm, and charming. Great staff -- engaging and welcoming. Now for the peppermint hot chocolate! 1) Spring for the 12 ounce option because you'll regret it if you don't. We were asked if we want whipped cream. The answer is yes. 2) An excellent accompaniment is the chocolate chip cookie. I'm sure that any of the other cookies would be delicious. It was a tough choice. 3) A little bird there told me that the peppermint hot chocolate is usually available through January. That being said, the other hot chocolate choices look wonderful. There are plenty of coffee options as well. 4) The baked goods look amazing! Next time. Hint -- they have four unique jams. $10.50 each, or buy three get one free. We bought four (3 for gifts, and a cherry rhubarb one for us). Enjoy the experience! read more

Ginger Elizabeth's macarons are DELISH! They melt in your mouth, were not too sweet, and they were beautifully made! My favorite flavor was the salted caramel. Least favorite however, was chocolate (sadly). I also had ordered a hot cocoa from here and it comes with cute little marshmellies (kid size) and it was very rich! It's such a cute little fun shop for a quick dessert and to grab a few gifts for ppl. I've yet to try their chocolates but I assume they're very good! The employees were very sweet and patient with you while you're picking out what you want from the display. If you're in town, I hiiiiighly recommend getting some goodies from Ginger Elizabeth's. read more

Was in the area for lunch and had to pop in for a sweet treat. This shop is a must stop. The employee behind the counter greeted us kindly and offered us a chocolate almond. It was delicious. We looked around at the ready to buy boxes of candies, and then looked at the case of macarons .... My reason for stepping into the shop. I got two tiramisu and two strawberry rhubarb cobbler. I have to say the tiramisu is one of the best macaron I've ever had. Perfection. The cakes in the case were very tempting and that will be something I grab on another visit to town. What a great shop. read more

A warm sweet scent will greet you as soon as you walk through the doors into the pink decorative Pâtisserie shop. Hand crafted chocolates in fun flavors and various other sweet treats. Every time I see them on TooGoodToGo I have to grab a bag! This time it was filled with various macarons. There was pumpkin, mint and a jelly one. All were absolutely delicious and had a great crunch to chewy ratio. Parking here is all street parking but I've never had a problem finding a spot nearby when I visit. Can't wait to try more goodies soon! read more

Observing Bakerie is like observing a system in equilibrium. Each pastry exists in a state of potential satisfaction until selected. The moment of tasting collapses that uncertainty into a definite experience--one that is surprisingly consistent. Not extraordinary in theory, but meaningful in practice. read more

Finally made some time to visit this weekend after I had a taste of their salted caramel ice cream macaron years ago! I had no idea they had such a large variety of sweets. I ended up trying their salted caramel affogato and some macarons instead (and so I can come back a second time for the ice cream). They are definitely on the sweeter side, or I am just not a fan of affogato I guess. The macarons were great in small bites to savor the flavor. I loved the light crunch of the outer shells and then the soft filling. The girls were super sweet and offered complimentary samples of their Madagascar (?) chocolate when I first came in, and gave me a run down of what they offer! Interior was cute and had plenty of seating inside the shop, outside in the hallway, and even outdoors. This was a great place to stop by while going around midtown, especially after walking around in the heat at the Midtown Farmer's Market. read more

Had to come try their pistachio Dubai chocolate sundae and wow wow wow!! I stopped by on a Thursday before noon and there was no line -- score! The staff member who helped me was very pleasant and nice. She answered all my questions and was very patient while I decided. Ultimately I decided on just the sundae. It took about 2 minutes and wow, what a beauty! The ice cream was creamy and perfectly sweet. They were pretty generous with the pistachio shredded filo dough concoction and the crushed chocolate crumbs added the perfect texture and crunch. Surprisingly, I think the highlight was their whipped cream -- fluffy and definitely housemade. The cherry on top was a very nice touch. Although I love the indoor seating vibes, I took a seat outside and enjoyed in the sun alone -- it was delightful. Been here about 30+ times for various other items and Ginger always maintains its quality and amazing service. read more

I've been going here a lot lately since I've been doing the 2 good 2 go bags. I also come here for the chocolate chip cookie. So far, I've received the following from the bags: -cookies -tiramisu -chocolate -ice cream sandwiches Everything has been good so far. The tiramisu still tasted great, the cookies are one of my favorites and the ice cream sandwiches always hits the spot. Costumer service is always great and workers are friendly and ready to help. They have seating inside the restaurant, in the small room right outside the shop, and outside seating (this may actually be for the bar next door), but it's a cute place with great items. It is a bit pricey, so if you want to try the food, get the bags and you won't be disappointed. read more

I love the hot chocolate here! It is so delicious. I believe I've tried every single one. I always order the marshmallows made in house to go on top.

#1. JUST AN FYI Trying to find parking is a nightmare in this area."that's just a comment and has nothing to do with their chocolates or the service" The service here is fantastic, they give you a free sample when you walk in. The chocolates are even better! I asked the lady behind the counter which are their best selling chocolates? She had a puzzled look on her face then pointed out 6 of them "so I got all 6. After eating them I realized why the puzzled look on her face. They are all fantastic! Seriously these are next level chocolates. I even liked the 2 that were milk chocolate and I HATE milk chocolate. Overall if I had to pick my favorite it would have to be the milk chocolate hazelnut "yes I actually said milk chocolate" my 2nd favorite is the dark chocolate butter milk lime. Their packaging here is super fancy "just like the chocolate" but honestly for $3 per chocolate I felt the price point was on the steep side. read more

The Oaxacan spiced hot chocolate might be the best hot chocolate I've ever had in my life.

Absolutely the best macarons I've simply ever had. Worth the parking stress to grab a couple for the road. It's located in the downtown area of Sacramento and it's a small little shop, you might miss it a couple of tries but once you spot it, you'll be back for more. They have a couple people who help grab all the goodies you want and bag them up in super pretty wrapping and or bags. I typically get the vanilla and pistachio as the basic, always available flavors but my absolute favorite holiday flavor is the peppermint. If you're able to give that a try, I recommend at least 10! read more

The customer service was nice as well, they do have to much seating area. read more

Macaroon sandwich ice cream is my latest favorite dessert and it's not easy to find in town and that's what led me to Ginger Elizabeth chocolates. However I wished that they had more than couple of options for macaroon sandwich ice-creams. We tried their almond rocher which was good but isn't amongst the top few from the ones I have tried. We also tried the soft serve macaroons which I think is ok. Also they close at 9PM sharp ( including weekends). The interiors are cozy and cheerful. They also serve varieties of macaroons and chocolates. Definitely worth trying once. read more

I've written multiple reviews on her original L st store but I didn't realize I never wrote a review for this location. I miss the L st store for nostalgic reasons, but I frequent this store often because I'm a huge fan of just about everything Ginger makes. I recommend going to her ice cream socials as well as jam day. I was gifted her advent calendar this year and it was fabulous. Her hot chocolate is not to be missed either. Some of my favorite items include: -Macarons of course (Salted caramel, Almond vanilla, Peppermint) -Cookies (especially the chocolate chip) -Housemade marshmallows -Pot de creme -Macaron ice cream sandwiches -Frozen hot chocolate Service is always on point even when the line is long. Metered parking is available in front. Ginger Elizabeth is a Sacramento staple. read more

Time update my review since Ginger Elizabeth has changed since my last one. Now the shop no longer has pastries but, now sells things like cupcakes, cookies, brownies, slices of loaf styled cake etc. It's more dessert centered. It still has chocolates, macarons, and chocolate bars. Anything you buy here is delicious and the best. I'm personally not a huge fan of macarons but, the ones made here are the best I've had. The hot chocolate is rich, decadent, and special. They make their own marshmallows and whipped cream to top off the hot chocolate. You can also add an espresso shot to your hot chocolate for an additional charge. My go to is the Oaxacan spice hot chocolate which, tastes like Mexican hot chocolate but, more decadent. Now they have soft serve ice cream which is awesome. It's rich and creamy. The flavors have been rotating to one new flavor each month so far. But usually the vanilla and chocolate have been available along with the rotating flavor each month. There's an occasional sundae special too with the rotating flavor which is posted on their IG page if one happens that month. I just tried the coffee hazelnut brown sugar chocolate bar and it was to die for. It wasn't bitter at all or overpowered with the coffee flavor. It was smooth and delicious. Their ice cream macaron sandwiches are now available year round instead of just during the summer. The macaron ice cream sandwiches are amazing. Their customer service here is always great, attentive, and friendly. read more

Located across the hall from Ro Sham Beaux wine bar. I returned to Ginger Elizabeth for their current seasonal flavors and my sweet tooth ran wild. In one sitting (with two friends as witnesses): a cup of frozen peppermint hot chocolate soft serve, one salty caramel cupcake, one gingersnap macaron (LOVE), one peppermint macaron (OK), also a bite of their gingersnap cookie (yum), and finished off with about half of a peppermint hot chocolate drink (vanilla marshmallow, chocolate pearls, hold the whipped cream). Why did I even bother with a box and a bag? The soft serve was not too minty for me, but that's just me. I'm a sucker for salty caramel anything by Ginger, and the chocolate cupcake delivered. The gingersnap macaron was the best, and I somehow missed the other seasonal macaron flavor, apple cobbler. The just-peppermint macaron was just okay. The actual ginger cookie was bigger than my hand, and just-right chewiness with the molasses. The hot peppermint hot chocolate drink was also the perfect seasonal holiday sip! Pretty much had everything but a macaron ice cream sandwich and chocolate bar! This is a nice stop for gifts as well (macarons, chocolate squares/bars, hot cocoa powder tins). read more

This was our first time coming to the new location, and we were delighted by all the treats that were available. There was a nice selection of chocolate truffles, of course, which were exceptional as always. We also couldn't resist getting the box of caramels and have already eaten 3 or 4 - so far, the salty caramel is my favorite flavor. The really exciting thing about this location, especially in the summer, is the frozen treats on offer. My daughter got the s'more frozen macaron sandwich, which was intense - a bit too intense for me since I do love chocolate but am not a huge fan of chocolate flavored cakes, cookies, or ice cream. I got the Dubai bar soft serve sundae, which was absolutely delicious - imo, the combination of chocolate, pistachios, and crunchy bits really can't be beat. The vanilla soft serve provided a nice contrast to all the toppings. Can't comment on the cherry since my daughter stole it. The indoor decor is very pink. They have a small seating area indoors with some additional seating outside the shop but still inside the shopping complex. Don't leave Sacramento without paying a visit here! read more

okay what is not to love about Ginger Elizabeth?! We came in to get chocolate chip cookies, we left with cookies, cupcakes, and the salted caramel macaron ice cream sandwich!! Everything is so good!! I like this location. It's one long room, but it has enough space that you can see all the delicious baked goods. I liked that they offered samples of their ice cream sandwich, which resulted in us buying one!! ( marketing totally worked! ) There is some seating outside, and it was nice to just chill and eat there for a little bit. read more

Everything I have ever tried here has been exceptional. Not good, not great... exceptional. This is one of those places where you can pretty much point at anything and know it is going to hit. The chocolates are obviously the star, but it goes way beyond that. The fudge, candy bars, and all of their different confections are on another level. You can tell there is a lot of precision and care behind everything they make. The macarons are excellent, the cupcakes are consistently on point, and then there is the hot chocolate... which honestly deserves its own category. It is rich, smooth, and easily one of the best you will have anywhere. What I really appreciate is the consistency. I have never had anything from here that felt like a miss. That is rare, especially for a place with this many different offerings. The shop itself also has a really nice feel to it. Clean, polished, and a little upscale without being intimidating. This is one of those places I always recommend without hesitation. Whether you are treating yourself or picking up something for someone else, it delivers every single time. If you are in Sacramento, Ginger Elizabeth Chocolates is a must. read more

Ready to get chocolate wasted? Well that's what you may be in store for with Ginger Elizabeth Chocolates' case full of scrumptious macarons and chocolate infused menu. This little shop located in a shared space is frequented by many locals and visitors. It is not uncommon to see a line forming out the door for their goodies inside, and parking can be a bit tricky since there is only street parking available. There are usually spots just down the block around the corner but be prepared to put your eagle eyes on for those free parking spaces. Ginger Elizabeth hosts an abundance of sweet treats but by far it seems the patrons go for a mad dash on their freshly made macarons and hot chocolate drinks. They do also have gift boxes of their chocolates, hot chocolate mix, and other treats. Their glass case of macarons is clearly labeled with all of their flavors and if you're just looking for a taste, they do sell them individually (with small individual boxes to carry the precious cargo in). I, personally, am not a huge fan of macarons but I can tell they're carefully crafted to not only taste delicious but look beautiful before they're nibbled up. In addition to their macarons, they have freshly made cookies and cold treats including soft serve and frozen macarons. If we had more time here, we would have definitely given them a try but we will have to bookmark them for another visit! We primarily came for the hot chocolate drinks and they were as good as we expected! That pure chocolate richness coating your tastebuds as you attempt to pinpoint the different attributes and flavors is such an amazing experience, from the first sip to the last. The smallest size is perfect for one to enjoy but not be too indulged as to feel sweetened out; although if you're planning to share, perhaps a size up might be more appropriate. Sipping chocolate - elegance, decadence, richness and boldness all packed into an 8 oz cup is what you need to get if it's your first time here. If you're a hot chocolate fan, prepare to be enlightened. Mocha peppermint - delicious chocolate kicked up a notch with some good old fashioned espresso. Topped with some crunchy chocolate pearls and whip cream, you got yourself a taste of winter! Rose - very fragrant and has a nice sweet aroma and taste. Pairs well with the chocolate but not my personal favorite. Overall, if you're in the mood to get pampered or looking for the right gift from Sac Town for a chocolate lover, Ginger Elizabeth is where you need to go. The hot chocolates will warm your socks off and their desserts will have you coming back for more. The price point is certainly higher than most but won't find anything as good as this in this area. The staff are lovely and the space is quite clean - perfect for simply enjoying that hot cup of cocoa! read more

I've been a fan of Ginger Elizabeth chocolates for as long as I can remember. The chocolates here are high quality and I love that the ingredients they use are locally sourced. I love going in and getting one of their macaron ice cream sandwiches, a chocolate chip cookie, and the brown sugar creme brûlée chocolate. I would recommend anything caramel. Love the flavors and variety in the caramel collection, the salty caramel ice cream sandwich, the opera cake sandwich. And of course who could forget about the hot chocolate. I buy the tins and marshmallows to make it at home! Truly the best. The staff is super attentive and I always know I'm going to enjoy my visit. read more
