We stopped by this beautiful chocolate shop near the pier where our ship was docked today and were…read moredelighted with our visit. To cool off after exploring Halifax, we each ordered a mango and passion fruit soft-serve ice cream in a cup. I also purchased a milk chocolate slate with almonds, a box of milk chocolate-covered hazelnuts, and a few wild rose milk chocolate truffles to enjoy later. The soft-serve ice cream was outstanding. We both agreed that it was one of the tastiest soft serves we've had in quite some time. The vanilla bean soft serve was exceptionally smooth, creamy, and flavorful, while the mango and passion fruit added a refreshing tropical twist that was perfect for a warm day. One of the highlights of our visit was chatting with Tara, the front store manager. She was friendly, warm, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the chocolate-making process used by the owner and master chocolatier, Julien Rousseau. Learning about the craftsmanship and care that goes into creating the chocolates made the experience even more enjoyable and interesting. Tara's assistant, Aldrin, was equally warm and welcoming, making us feel appreciated from the moment we walked through the door. The shop itself is spotless, beautifully presented, and offers a relaxing atmosphere. After spending several hours walking around Halifax, it was the perfect place to sit down, enjoy a sweet treat and a latte, and take a break. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would not hesitate to stop by again the next time we are in Halifax. Highly recommended for anyone looking for exceptional chocolates, smooth and creamy soft-serve ice cream, excellent lattes, and genuinely friendly service.

This is a follow up review after trying another box of 24 chocolates that were shipped to me. This…read morewas a much better experience. I have found a description of some of the chocolate flavours online. There are still several chocolates in the box which are not shown online, especially the decorative holiday designs. I had to bite the bullet (i.e. chocolate [pun intended]) and hope for the best. Unlike the last time, the box was filled with chocolate flavours that I really liked. Some are very original like blueberry tea and the blue speckled dome-shaped dark salted butter caramel. Most of the chocolates shifted out of place, turned upside down or sideways in transit (see photo). I've been in touch with an executive at the company who knows about the issue and is planning to change the packaging. Hopefully, they will also enclose in each box a QR code or website address/URL detailing all their chocolate flavours. I appreciate that someone reached out to me when they read that my experience wasn't as positive as they or I would have liked. This is a company that cares about its customers and reputation. Their handcrafted chocolates are beautiful with many looking like works of art.

Their hot chocolate and cocoa packaged to take home is excellent for drinking and baking (tested faithfully and often by yours truly). Chocolates are awesome with original and sometimes surprising fillings. And their chocolate drink honestly makes me wiggle with happiness. Reminds me of hot chocolate I used to drink in Paris.
