Marvin's Confections had a nice array of different types of chocolates that he made, which was…read morereally cool to me. Some even had pictures on them. I love that he customizes your own unique chocolate with pictures. We were able to taste some of the chocolate. It was filled with lots of chocolate caramel and different types of nuts. After that, I had to purchase me some to go. They were very friendly and even came around giving out more samples. With Mother's and Father's Day coming up, this would make a perfect gift. I can't wait to pair the chocolate with the dessert wine from the event.

I can't believe I didn't know this place existed until just a couple weeks ago when I saw it on…read moreYelp. I have a major sweet tooth, I probably bleed chocolate. So needless to say, this went up to the top of my queue. Finally, I visited last week around 11:15am just after they opened and had a great experience, and of course walked out with some delicious truffles. The owner was very friendly and talked to us about the variety of chocolates, where they're sourced, which ones he prefers etc. They sell some local artisan products/merch (soaps, cards, etc) as well. After much internal struggle (I wanted everything), I settled on an 8 count of truffles and got some citrusy, caramel, and alcohol-infused flavors. I really liked the strawberry champagne and tangerine truffles. I will definitely return to satiate my sweet tooth. This place also does private chocolatier classes (truffles, molds, bars etc) for groups of 2-10 people. They don't have a set schedule, you just call to set a time that works well for you. Definitely something else I would be interested in checking out.

The reviews here are amazing - 4.9 Yelp rating over 29 reviews, lowest reviews are TWO 4's, can't…read moreremember seeing that before! This small place offers a very nice array of flavored, hand crafted chocolate bars, bonbons, and more, crafted by folks who care about what they are creating! I tried : bars - Milk Chocolate, Sea Salt, and Ocean Tide (sea salt and carmel). All 3 were excellent, but the Milk Chocolate is the very best of the lot - it rivals any I tasted in Europe. The sea salt is excellent, even a bit addictive with the hook at the end of a bite. That's the good news, the bad news is that each bar is 2.2 ounces and costs $10 each! Frankly, that is value prohibitive for many folks - there is little value here! Obviously, many see this differently, but I'll stay with my opinion! Ambiance - 4 Food - 4.5 Service - 5 Value - 2

Walking by Prudence McCabe, you might not step in because you are not in the mood for sweets, but…read morebelieve me don't let this opportunity pass. Go in there and buy a few bakery goods, you will not be disappointed. Surry County is know for a regional dessert called Sonker. This is the craziest word, it makes me think someone was calling it something else and the Southern tongue made it sonker. But I have no proof of this or even heard anyone saying, just my theory. A sonker can be made differently, but I had three from three restaurants, because once you try it, you are ready to try more because they are most delicious! At Prudence McCabe it is like a thinner cobbler, with equal parts fruit and crust. The most intriguing part, she says they bake the sonkers and then grate cold butter on it with a sprinkle of sugar. Stop you had me at hello. What I really enjoyed was that it wasn't sticky sweet, call ahead and order some so you can choose your flavors, and it can be ready when you arrive. Or buy some to heat up later. There are many other treats, don't overlook the caramel and candid apples, the handmade chocolates, scones and there were bags of oyster crackers when we were there. Super friendly staff too.

I love dark chocolate but even at Whole Foods many of the options have ingredients in them I refuse to eat. Rhyme & Reason allows me to fill my guilty pleasure of chocolate without having to sacrifice on quality ingredients. The owner is very nice and friendly and has visited all of the places where she gets the beans for her chocolate. There are so many options from sweet chocolate all the way up to 85% dark chocolate. Some may say that the chocolate is pricey but given all the work put into making it with clean ingredients and the process it takes, it is worth it. If you try to look for something similar, you will see that the price is in the same range if not higher, so do yourself a favor and get yourself some chocolate from Rhyme and Reason. The shop is super cute as well. The decor is very inviting and the way the chocolate is presented almost on something similar to a plate holder with small samples in front is very cute. The cherry on top is that they will sometimes host a chocolate and cocktail pairing event. I still haven't been able to attend due to other obligations but I am on their email list so I can hopefully go to the next one.
