However, the hot chocolate did not meet my expectations, as I did not detect the rich chocolate flavor found in other specialty hot chocolate establishments. I assume this may be due to the type of chocolate used. I did, however, appreciate the availability of an almond milk option. Would I return for the hot chocolate? Unfortunately, no.

This comes in a set of 3 mini sizes. Staff was super accommodating and very patient with my decision paralysis of trying to choose flavors. They had great recommendations and our order was up quickly. Tried the hazelnut, semi sweet, and cardamom rose. Really enjoyed it! The marshmallows are also house made and were delish! Tried the truffle of the week, Baileys and they also had a line of brewery inspired flavors, so I tried the Clementine Cider. One also random star of the show is the well stocked washroom! Equipped with ample space, changing table, baby wipes, diapers, sanitary pads and tampons. Kudos for being well stocked for all the ladies and mamas out there! Can't wait to come back to try the other drinking chocolates!

I opted to try the goat cheese walnut dark chocolate while they prepared my drinking chocolate. My candy was delicious and goat cheese pair well with the chocolate. For my drinking chocolate, I got the Koval Bourbon Drinking Chocolate with Salted Caramel Marshmallow. It was fantastic and a nice warm up to frigid temperatures outside. All in all, a good way to warm up. Lots of options for food. On this occasion it was pretty packed but everyone was in jolly moods considering the holiday season.

Upon entering the establishment, I was very impressed with how gorgeous the place is; it's perfectly curated with living plants, rich brown floors and wood shelving, beautiful light, and elegantly minimalistic packaging. There were vegan candy options in a variety of places, but we decided to gift ourselves an entire box of "Unbelievably Vegan" chocolates. So far, the ones we ate are delicious! One of my biggest pet peeves with vegan candy is that it's usually way too sweet, to the point where it actually hurts my teeth. These are totally different--they're super flavorful, rich, creamy, and not overly sweet at all. They are perfect for a self-care treat, but the chic boxes also make them a great gift. Oh, and the staff working here were wonderful! Tipping is optional, but they deserve it!

Everything is covered in soft velour and velvet and it's just beautiful! There's a great mural on the wall with different cute sayings painted on the leaves. I'll be sharing pictures of those so make sure you take a look! It's a little pricey for your average person but the quality of the chocolate which is from France and Germany makes it worth it! Their coffees come with a lot of options, some with very unique flavor combinations. I tried the rosemary caramel iced latte and I loved it! Which I was surprised by because I'm not usually a rosemary fan. They have a great variety of homemade marshmallows which I will also show you in the pictures, I can't resist a good marshmallow! So I had to try the brown butter marshmallows to bring home with me and oh my goodness! But the real winner for me was Homemade caramels! I would go back just for those! Especially the bacon one ! If you go there and try absolutely nothing else , get yourself a couple of those. you can thank me later ! The staff is super friendly and helpful! I also love that you can see back into the Candy Kitchen! So you know that all the Truffles and caramels and everything is prepared in-house and are super fresh and extra delicious! If you're ever near one of their many locations I encourage you to stop in! The coffee price point is actually very affordable, the truffle and marshmallow prices are truthfully probably comparable with like Godiva or Fannie May but they are made with much higher quality ingredients. Not someplace I would visit everyday, but definitely great for a special occasion! This would be a great business to visit for some sweet holiday treats! They have multiple shops! Support your local small businesses!!!

The food and beverages are delicious! I loved the southwest chicken sandwich, as well as the Caesar salad with chicken. Every ingredient tasted fresh and high quality, and the chicken was tender and juicy. The sandwich also came with a tasty cup of soup. The tomato soup was very nice, and the croutons on top were the perfect touch. I enjoyed such a fun matcha latte! It was called Super Monkey Ball matcha and the presentation was great! The banana cream topping with cinnamon filled the top. Really comfortable place to relax with friends or get some work done.

They sell boxes of four, nine, and sixteen, any of which would serve as a nice gift for various occasions. My wife gave some as hostess gifts for a few events that she attended this year, and in turn I got her some for Mother's Day. There are traditional western varieties such as hazelnut, praline, coffee, and vanilla, as well as fruity options and other Filipino-inspired flavors. I'm happy to support a local business and will definitely be using them again for future gift-giving occasions.

We've tried the jasmine osmanthus, and as of 5/24/26 the most recent flavor is ube (and apparently still is at the time of this review according to their Instagram). All the flavors have been incredible so far and we always look forward to the next time we can go. Additionally, it's vegan so everyone can enjoy it! They have been known to run out though, so get there early if you can. They also have beautifully decorated bonbons, caramels, and chocolates, all with some really unique flavors I haven't seen anywhere else - check out the pictures to see some of them! I'd feel guilty eating the bonbons because they're so elegant, but they would make a fantastic gift. They make their matcha lattes using matcha powder that they also sell, and you can actually choose which matcha powder you want to try based on its profile. They have a chart that shows the matcha choices and their descriptions; I'll try to grab a picture of and post here the next time we go which will hopefully be soon, but someone may have already posted it. It's a small place so it can get busy and crowded quickly, especially since they're only open on the weekends. Everyone has been so nice and helpful whenever we go though, despite how busy they get! Can't wait until our next visit!
