They sell all types of chocolates, nuts, drinks, etc. We bought 1 bag of chocolate with almonds and 1 bag of sesame brittle. Both so delicious and placed in great packaging. The line system needs a little work, probably because the shop is kind of small.

We ordered two cappuccinos and an americano, all of which turned out really good! My americano was very flavorful, and I even got to add some cinnamon (my favorite) and chocolate to enhance it even more! The service was super quick and friendly, and some of the workers were patiently explaining the difference in their chocolates to customers, which was very cool to witness! Next time I'm definitely coming out with more than just a coffee!

I had no interest in Cadbury and came across articles recommending this luxury chocolate brand, so…read morewe ventured to this location out of only three. A vast range of chocolates and flavors could be found. The print on the packaging was quite distinct. ----- Espresso Shots Gift Tin: little solid chocolate drops shaped like coffee beans and flavored with rich roasted coffee (£16.95). Certainly powerful in coffee taste and yet not too bitter. Chocolate consistency was smooth with a tiny hint of grittiness from the ground coffee beans. Quality was good and best to eat a couple at a time. ----- Milkshake: choose your ice cream flavor. Add whipped cream (optional) (£5.95). My brother picked their one of their best sellers: Dark Chocolate ice cream flavor, made from a blend of three types of imported Dutch Cocoa. He thought it was good, although was too rich for him to finish. Toppings like gold sugar, rose petals, and wafer thin piece can be added at an extra cost. ----- The Belgravia store is along Motcomb Street lined with independent boutiques and restaurants. A couple of tables are outside in addition to indoor seating.

Rocco is a quaint little store/cafe located in the upscale residential part of Belgravia. They carry an eclectic collection of unique flavors of chocolates such as earl grey, scrumptious peach, almond cardamon coffee marzipan, award-winning Persian pistachio and Tawny Fig, etc. The prices are pretty reasonable for handmade gourmet chocolate. I am not a connoisseur of chocolate; but they wife seemed to really enjoy them.

Adorable & delicious treats await you at Jeff de Bruges…read more Staff is nice as can be - we were interested in their super-cute animal shapes like horses, cows, pigs, chickens, fish..... but did not want to purchase the pre-filled boxes or bags since they also contained shapes & flavors we did not care so much about They happily offered to fill a hand-selected bag just for us so we ventured through their cases & selected all our favorites The milk chocolate is creamy & has a fantastic melty factor - the animals contained bits of toffee, coconut or hazelnut & they were just the treat we were seeking Wonderful stop after the V&A Museum!

I treated myself with a cup of mixed Madagascan Vanilla and Chocolate ice cream (italian style from a machine). I chosen some fruit toppings and small salted caramel cubes (awesome texture, a must-try) which meant I received the portion in a plastic bowl - but that was my negligence to say I wanted it coned. Looking at all the beautiful pralines I asked for a couple and so I can now comprehensively recommend John de Bruges for authentic excellency.

I have to say, I'm pretty impressed with not only how this place has survived over the years, but…read moreevolved into a full-blown sit-down café, complete with sweets and treats to compliment their strong Greek coffee. They even have the fanciest gift boxes you've ever seen outside of Fortnum & Mason. Despite once having been solely a chocolate shop, the interior gives off some posh vibes that invite you to stay awhile. Weather permitting, they also have outdoor seating for some ultimate people-watching. The coffee itself could use some improvement, but overall, it isn't terrible. They serve it with a side of chocolates, so you could chew on the sweet merchandise to cut through the bitterness of the overly-roasted java. Service isn't always the fastest if you're sitting down to eat or drink, but it's more of a "come in and stay awhile" kind of place, anyway. If you are coming in to stay a while, however, expect to pay a lot more than the price of your coffee. My £3.60 oat flat white somehow turned into £6.36 when I got my bill. Considering everything you're getting in one stop, as well as the touristy area it's in, however, you could do worse. They even have a washroom, which - if you're familiar with this part of town - can be a Godsend.

Pierre Herme boutique on 13 Lowndes St is walking distance from Harrods or Victoria station…read more I enjoyed these new flavor profiles on this trip: Mogador, Jardin Andalou. Citron noir (black lemon with a story behind it) will be available in their Christmas collection end of November. Nov'18 pricing: 2GBP macaron Infiniment. 2.20GBP Signature macaron. It costs 3.50GBP xtra for a box that holds 12 macarons/ 2.50GBP xtra for box holding 7. You will need these if travelling. Tip: they also sell Pierre Herme macarons and chocolates at Selfridges.

Had the following from Selfridges Take Away…read more 1. INFINIMENT ROSE (Rose & Rose Petals) - I am not usually a fan of rose but the taste was so subtle it was a treat. 2. INFINIMENT CARAMEL (Salted-Butter Caramel) - Nice flavour and not overpowering. 3. INFINIMENT CITRON (Lemon) - Again a nice acidic taste but just right. 4. INFINIMENT CHOCOLAT PAINEIRAS (Pure Origin Brazilian Dark Chocolate) - Again a great treat and I have not had a bad one yet so cant wait to get more one day and try the others 5. INFINIMENT PISTACHE (Pistachio) - Probably my favourite to be honest and such a clean taste. Conclusion I have never purchased from this vendor before and now has become my favourite as the macaroons were amazing, soft but just the right amount of crunch and distintive but subtle taste and creamy centres. I had stored them in the fridge and had one or two each day and even on day four they tasted as good as day one. I highly recommend this company and although on the pricey side I think it is worth a treat now and again. As you will note I did not try the signature ones as they seemed a little more adventurous so next time I will give some of these a go for sure.

I went to a chocolate tasting event here where we tried a small number of their chocolates. Mostly…read morewe were introduced to their wide range of chocolate bars which range from a milk chocolate through to a very tasty dark chocolate. They say not to pay attention to the cocoa content and rather to the flavor. Tucked away at the back of the chocolate hall or the front depending on how you enter it the chocolate counter can too easily be lost in the cacophony of chocolates assaulting your senses. Make sure you find it though because there's lots to recommend it! With a unique set of flavours divided into themes, this chocolate is delicate and quite pleasant. It's going to be different from anything you'll find elsewhere and you'll be appreciated no matter what you select. The easiest option rather than be overwhelmed by the selection is to go for a themed box. The Kaori box is going to make you the star of any party with a selection of very different flavours you can eat alone or dip in to another flavour to enjoy. I had the opportunity to sample this at my leisure along with a few chocolates and I can report back that while not all of the box of Kaori was quite to my taste, things that I did not think were to my taste were not as bad as I thought. The balance is well done here and the Kalamansi can be used like glue so dip your stick in there before your choice of Orange and Cocoa Nibs or Matcha Green Tea and Poppy Seeds power to coat the outside. It did take some getting used to but for a gift or at a party, this would be superb. While we did sample most of the chocolate bars we ran out of time to try much else as Harrods was closing! Of the few chocolates I sampled, the white was predictably sweet but the dark pleasantly mild. There was not as much body to the dark as I have become used to but hey I did enjoy it nonetheless. The milk was too sweet for me but many people will find this the perfect milk chocolate as it mirrors more closely the flavour and sweetness many expect in a milk chocolate. All in all a fantastic event and a great chocolate so quick go grab yourself some!

The…read moreGaller corner of the Chocolate Hall is bright with its smart orange and chocolate packaging, and the counter is filled with tempting (and often unusual) varieties for the chocolate lover. There are ranges of Galler chocolate specifically created for lactose intolerance and diabetes and if you're shopping for the choccie lover who has everything, look no further. The Kaori range consists of 6 ganache pencils and 3 'dips', meaning that 54 combinations are possible, all for a very reasonable £14.50. The Elementaires have floral, marine or 'volvanic' flavours and the tablets vary in taste according to the source of the cacao bean (Ecuador, Papua New Guinea) and cacao content. The prices vary greatly so you can find a treat to fit every wallet. Go at your peril.
