The finest chocolate in Sydney can be found at Coco Chocolate. The boutique chocolate shop…read morespecialises in 'real chocolate' - that is chocolate made by local artisan chocolatiers with high coco content and premium coco butter. Oh and of course it is all organic. Given all this you might think a trip to Coco Chocolate may be a bit too pretentious for your liking. In actuality, a stop a Coco Chocolate is both a pleasure and an indulgence. The shop itself is actually quite humble considering the quality of the chocolate it is home to. Chocolate lines the walls and the centre of this charming space is actually a communal table which is very inviting for a coffee or tea. Staff know their products inside out and are very helpful with suggestions and any questions you might have. Any of their treats make for a wonderful gift, so if you're looking for something a bit different this is the place to pick it up!

I can still smell the dark, wickedly non-bitter and very very moreish chocolate..... *drools*…read more.. Why? Because I could not leave the store without buying some. :-) On the hunt for yet another cafe, I stumbled upon a store front that almost seemed boarded up with news clippings and other laminated articles, and if it was not for the "Chocolate" that caught my eye, I may have missed out entirely. The shop maybe quite small, but it is packed with so many varieties of deliciousness that you'll be hard pressed to choose. I decided that I should try to find the ultimate match for a couple of the smoky Islay single malts I have at home. The desire therefore was to find something 80+% cocoa solids, giving a rich comparison to savour the smoky peat. At this request I was presented a sample of the perfect dark choc. Within seconds I had found what I was after. Not to stop there I was then presented a sample of tobacco chocolate which contained heavily caramelised cocoa which was then mixed in with 60% choc. The result was a crisp, almost nutty result which while delicious, was not as good as the 80% I then purchased. No this is not the cheapest chocolate you will find, but it has to be close to the best in Sydney. I would certainly recommend them if good quality choc is what you are after. By the way, they also serve Sacred Grounds coffee here which I can not review as I did not drink any here, but you might want to should you drop in.

Got a 12 pack 1kg deal and loved the fact that I could select multiple flavors not just 12 of one . For the price 8.99 aud I was ecstatic value was huge obviously but the flavor blew me away! Everything from Cabernet, cherry, mango, passion fruit etc was of course clean but very flavorful and left a smile on my face after every bite. Everyone was so nice there and listened to the foreign American go on and on how nothing back in the states comes close! I'm gonna be a regular when I finally move and places like this help me count the days!

Giant chocolate violins and seashells on the walls and on the shelves, thousands of tiny mouthfuls of chocolate in so many forms and flavours, this place is as sinfully indulgent on the tongue as it is on the wallet; with chocolate going for $103 a kilogram. If you're a foodie with a sweet tooth, you'd better be well-paid or wealthy or something, because you won't be able to hold yourself back. If you have good self control, even just taking a look around it worth the visit. Staff are polite and helpful, and can advise you on 3 generations worth of Belgian chocolate knowledge.

It may not have that professional chocolatier feel (the business card I received was printer from a household printer, on ordinary paper), but in its place it has a very homely feeling. In the window are boxes filled with various types of chocolates, and on the inside are some gift boxes, so that you may give to loved ones. The store isn't huge, theres more to see in the window than there is inside, but the man inside is very friendly and helpful, and the whole place feels like Grandma's place when she's baking. Makes you feel at home, ya know? I reckon there's a bit more life and love in a box of Richards chocolates than the cold definition of a manufactured one. I guess it depends where your heart is in relation to your wallet, your pallat, and your pride. But come and see it, it's really cool.

This store is so quaint and charming that you feel you're in a Parisian chocolatier. Coco Chocolate is a specialty organic chocolate shop that makes all sorts of tasty wonders to whiz your head into a spin. You won't get the cheap additives (like vegetable fat and powdered milk) that bulk up the mass produced chocolates as Coco uses, as they say, 'expensive cocoa and cocoa butter'. And well, these expensive ingredients do translate of course to expensive chocolates. The thing is with this organic chocolate compared to other organic chocolate is that it is packaged in boxes that are quirky, original and beautiful - keepers they are - so are more gift chocolate than daily indulgent chocolate. A favorite is the Organic Handmade Dark Chocolate With Rose & Black Pepper made with 64% organic dark chocolate, organic ground black pepper and 100% pure rose oil. One last thing that I'm sure is worth a mention - tastings... in store.

If you're a bit so-so about chocolate this shop will elevate you. It's hard not to be as passionate as the owner Rebecca clearly is. They have another shop in Kirribilli too.
