Mira Y.

First time here The aroma is intoxicating and you are surrounded by luscious chocolate. I love it. The store is so cute and filled with delicious goodies. I appreciate chocolate making and understand that it is a labor of love to make something that tastes great and looks so beautiful. I purchased two packages of milk chocolate dinosaurs. They were $2.50 each. Initially I thought it was expensive but a little goes a long way. It melts in your mouth and satisfies your sweet tooth. Sometimes I can finish half a bag of store bought chocolate and it still won't satisfy my hunger for a piece of chocolate mostly because it's not made with real chocolate. But it's definitely decadent here and is made without any preservatives and fillers.

Chocolate heaven

We wanted a traditional French chocolate bunny, and we went all over town looking for one. The only place we found was this little hole-in-wall shop in Laguna Niguel. Luisa trained as a chocolatier in France and it shows! She makes traditionally molded chocolates on order. So we ordered a big chocolat bunny! We we got it, we were floored! There was 2 1/2 pounds of excellent dark chocolate! And we demanded the French tradition of "Friture" (small molded chocolate surprises inside). It wasn't cheap, but it was a bargain for what we got! We had chocolate bunny for months! ;-) Two chocolate thumbs up! (Here is big bunny next to the biggest Dove bunny we could find!)

The candy bar at our wedding 7 years ago. They even loaned us the containers.

My whole family absolutely loves this place and the owner. We've walked in and purchased from their counter at least 100 times over the years. The chocolate is amazing and they have such a variety of flavors to choose from. We've also worked with them for so many different special occasions such as baby announcements, invitations to be parts of the wedding party, thank you gifts, Mother's Day gifts, Valentine's Day gifts, retirement cake toppers, wedding table top displays with self serve candy. As you can tell we've used them for so many special events because where else can you get custom made chocolate. She has a booklet with all the designs you can pick from. For example when my father in law retired from his job as an airplane mechanic we ordered a chocolate airplane to display on top of the cake. Besides special order capabilities they also many prepared options in their business that you can walk in and by with no preordering required also a whole display of a variety of truffles. They do take credit cards which is convenient because you'll probably end up buying more than you planned on since everything is so good! Wonderful chocolate and a wonderful business.

I had sampled and purchased Luisa Chocolatiere chocolates several years ago at the Orange County Chocolate Festival. At the time, the store had very limited hours M-F while I was working, so I could not make it in. Now the store hours have been extended from 11 am to 6 pm M-F, so I was able to stop in after work. What a great little place and I mean little. Located in a strip mall in Laguna Hills, make sure you look for the green umbrella, (a tip from another Yelper) which is next to the store. The sweet girl that helped me offered me a sample of chocolate. She then proceeded to show me what types of confectioneries they sold. Along the left wall, there were packaged chocolates, like chocolate-covered pretzels, chocolate truffle almonds, etc. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/luisa-chocolatiere-laguna-hills?select=nmeboKdvY6gDzm7j2JTWEA Along the other wall, there were various white, milk and dark chocolate shaped items like footballs, suckers, hearts, etc. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/luisa-chocolatiere-laguna-hills?select=pUDTZsJxBV9dcL9gkntwvw They had some cool chocolate plaques with messages like, "Thank you" and "Happy Birthday," which were great for gift giving. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/luisa-chocolatiere-laguna-hills?select=BpDfd8uLvDmzjuZDAu9uZw Most of my purchases came from the front case, though. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/luisa-chocolatiere-laguna-hills?select=z2NsdUGDMQl2nrawBRkDQg In the case there were many types of handmade chocolates such as caramel chocolate turtles, chocolate geckos, chocolate frogs, chocolate covered rice krispy treats, haystacks (my favorite), truffles, and so many more. This was the extent of my purchases which was a lot less than I really wanted to purchase but I was trying not to go nuts. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/luisa-chocolatiere-laguna-hills?select=mB3-WfSMCllJxeeo5t0J9A I gave some as gifts, but my favorites I tasted were the Irish truffle, chocolate haystacks and the chocolate gecko which was a rice krispy treat covered in chocolate. Yum! They will custom make party favors, wedding favors, custom chocolate gifts and sugar-free chocolates here. I was told to make sure I return during the holidays and check out the chocolate turkeys and special seasonal chocolates for Christmas. I will definitely be back. As a chocolate lover, this is another truly special hidden gem in South Orange County that I am happy to have found.

Customized palm tree chocolate lollipops!

Luisa is the seriously the sweetest woman ever - she treated my sister and I like royalty when we entered her cute little chocolate shop. From telling us fun personal stories to teaching us about the benefits of consuming dark chocolate, you can tell that Luisa deeply cares about her work and products. One story I really enjoyed was the fact that she told us that she would be willing to search and purchase a certain mold if you needed one for a special event. Luisa literally goes out of her way to make her customers happy and I really value that. Also, she allowed my sister and I to try a sample of each chocolate flavor and thoroughly explained how her chocolates are much different than the ones that are mass-manufactured. When we entered Luisa Chocolate, you would see different molded chocolates on every side of you. To name a few, guitars molds, Despicable Me lollipops, chocolate boxes that go with wine, etc. Literally, it is like the mini version of Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory in here. I ordered 44 customized Palm Tree chocolate lollipops and Luisa surely outdid herself! These Palm trees consisted of either a mixture of milk and white chocolate or dark chocolate. Who knew you could mix chocolates on a lollypop?! Also, she wrapped each lollipop beautifully in a plastic cover and tied each one with a colorful ribbon. Luisa Chocolatiere is the perfect place to order customized chocolates and I have never seen chocolate as beautiful and tasty as the ones she makes.

Beautiful box of truffles!!
Dorris T.

I just love Luisa's chocolates. She is so sweet and nice and is so accommodating. I went on for a box of truffles and she made them up on the spot. And then I wanted some dark sea salt Carmel's and they only had one so she made up a bunch more for me. What a wonderful place. She deserves all these 5 stars she is getting.

Smooth and delicious

I went into See's while I was shopping for a special customer/friend. I needed to stop at Trader…read moreJoe's and Whole Foods for her and I remembered that one of her favorite treats is the Divinity Puff from See's. Her birthday just passed and I wanted to give her a little something to know how much I appreciate her. See's cleanliness is pretty consistently pristine. Victor was working. He was out of Divinty Puffs but offered an alternative until I told him about my customer and that she's told me in the past that the Divinity Puffs are her favorite. So he immediately called the Laguna Niguel location and told them exactly what I would like, told me how much it would cost, and asked them to gift wrap it. So convenient because I was going to Whole Foods next and my little gift was all ready! Not only did Victor give that best customer service but he's so friendly, funny, and has great hair!

As with everything else inflation has hit here too…read more $24.95 for a box of their tasty WALNUT DARK CHOCOLATE CARAMEL chewy bars. $17.25 for an 8-ounce box of DARK CHOCOLATE MAPLE BROWN SUGAR candies. Such is life...thankfully I indulge in this kind of sweet rarely. The gent (Riley) behind the counter was efficient and polite in spite of the indecisive semi-snail female customer holding up the line. She was deciding as she went while picking multiple boxes. He was cool under pressure. I purposely kept it short and sweet. The store is clean and well organized and convenient to home. Located next to TJ's is a plus too.

I like coming to this store to get sweets for friends and family members. They have a variety of…read moresweets to choose from. You can definitely tell it is Rocky Mountain because every franchise store has a huge teddy bear out in the front. Pros: (1) Large variety of truffles and chocolate clusters- they weigh as you go so depending on the number of pieces the prices can go up. (2) Large caramel apples (plain and upgraded version) - sometimes you can see them prepare caramel apples in front of customers and it is always fun for me and the kids to watch (3) Lots of fudge - sometimes you can see them prepare fudge in front of customers as well and the entire store smells sweet and buttery. (4) Cute packaging for gift sets (5) sugar and sugar free selections as well Cons: (1) inconsistent staff and customer service (2) high prices for small portions Overall, I feel like once I step into this store, just inhaling the sweet and buttery aroma, I am inhaling extra calories. Hahaha! But my taste buds do enjoy these sweet treats. Given that they are a chocolate store, I feel that they don't compare to artisan chocolate shops that are nearby. I prefer Swiss chocolates way more.

Located at the Irvine spectrum, I came to grab a few chocolates on a whim…read more They have an excellent selection of chocolate along with an ice cream / shake bar. The chocolate is good (almond cluster and pecan cluster) but a bit on the pricey side for what you get in my opinion.
