The fact that Mayfield Chocolates is located on Brisbane's 'medical street' is very handy. If you're visiting a friend at a clinic, or going to the doctor yourself, Mayfield Chocolates are the perfect way to cheer someone up. What I love at Mayfield Chocolates is the pack your own box option. You can choose the amount and type of chocolates you want, and also the box they'll come in. I first discovered Mayfield Chocolates when a friend gave me a the prettiest oblong wooden box. I had no idea that it would contain chocolates, but it did. Four delicious, gourmet chocolates nestled in their tiny little paper cups inside the box. She'd chosen the flavours specifically for me and the box was something I could keep even after the chocolates were consumed (which let's face it didn't take long!).
Mayfield specialises in native Australian flavours and you can pick from fillings like Australian Kakadu plum jelly, lemon myrtle and macadamia praline, Queensland pineapple ganache, Tasmanian leatherwood & Queensland ginger ganache, and my favourite: Australian native aniseed ganache in dark chocolate. I love that you can personalise which chocolates and how many you buy: it's so nice to be able to personalise a gift for someone, or just personalise what you'll be snacking on at 3am when you're craving chocolate. read more
