    They have the most beautiful desserts here that look like works of art; it reminds me of something you'd see at a fancy restaurant. The desserts fluctuate often and with the seasons. The store has a good Instagram presence highlighting their newest concoctions. In addition, there are chocolate truffles, macarons, ice cream desserts, and coffee drinks. This is an interesting location for a place like this. It seems to be more fitting for something on Union or Chestnut streets not some obscure place in the Mission. I'm not a fan of coming out to this neighborhood but I think it's worth it if providing individual artist-like cakes for a party where you want to impress everyone.

    Got here just in time before closing on a Saturday night and I got to thank the staff for being patient and friendly when we came in with our group of 8 for the first time. They made good suggestions and even helped us celebrate a special occasion which was super appreciated. This is no ordinary dessert shop. Delicious Edible art would be a more accurate description. You can tell care and effort was placed into making these not only taste good but look absolutely delectable. You'll be eating with your eyes as soon as you near the glass cases showcasing the various wonders. Recommend to grab a few to share with friends, the half dollar sized chocolates are a win. The ice cream pops and giant pillow shaped treats are also highly recommended.

    This has been on my list for quite some time now. I ordered the mango mousse cake but felt disappointed by it because it lacked some more mango flavor. Im not sure if its because of the season but it tasted plain. Personally don't feel it's worth $16. Place is small and seating is just counter top.

    I drop by almost every other Saturday to pick up a nice desert from Sixth Course. All the deserts are so cute and are very tasty. It's really cool to see the designs and flavors change over time with the seasons etc. You can also sometimes see them making the desserts inside the back area

    I love sweets that taste as wonderful as they look, which Sixth Course has an abundance of. Every beautifully decorated and crafted chocolate is a mixture of interesting and unforgettable flavors. I especially enjoyed the earl grey tea caramel chocolate! The cake was light and fluffy; I couldn't get enough of it. Lately, the teddy bear chocolate was lightly dusted with some edible iridescent powder that made it extra adorable. I felt a bit sad while I bit into its yummy head haha~ The dining area is clean and cool. I enjoyed looking at all the framed comics depicting Sixth Course staff's baking adventures :) Also, the lovely baker who helped me with my order was kind and helpful. I can't wait to return for more treats in the near future!

    Returning to the 6th dimension to try some more desserts, and to see if it's still as good as when I had it several years ago. Still unchanged, which is a plus in my book. I really like and appreciate the artistic quality of their desserts. This would be an awesome date place, or special occasion dessert place. We got their brownie chocolate garden dessert and kept eating the edible flowers. I felt like I was eating healthy, LOL. Great service, and great presentation. The mushrooms were made of pure sugar and the "grass" was matcha.

    Went here for dessert. Street parking only. The inside is cozy and bright. Staff were friendly. The selections were aesthetically appealing and amazingly crafted. A little pricy tho but I got some chocolate and coffee.

    An absolute gem in the mission. I have been coming to this spot for nearly a decade(?!). Creative, curated masterpieces! Edible art! The chef here is really thoughtful regarding local and seasonal ingredients and my mind has been blown more times than I can count. Mother earth cake anyone??? If you see it, get the mango chili lime gelato pop. The staff is always welcoming, and the space is *very* photo op friendly, good lighting, fresh flowers.. the lot. Perfect for treating yourself or bringing a beautiful gift to a friend. They also do custom cakes for all occasions. J'adore Sixth Course!

    We came on a saturday afternoon expecting a long line since the pictures and reviews of this place look amazing! To our surprise, the store was actually empty. I believe this is due to the location being quite residential and parking is very hard to find in this area. We probably looped around 3-4 times before we found a parking spot. If this shop opened up in the south bay area I can almost guarantee they would be sold out every single day. Location is everything. The cake was really good! The mouse on the strawberry shortcake had really strong strawberry flavor while not being too sweet. The cake itself was a little bit dense and sweet but we think this might be due to the slower turnaround. Their chocolates look amazing! My friends got the ice cream and sorbet pops. The flavors are super unique and they loved it!

    Such a cute little haute patisserie with an amazingly welcoming and informative staff. This is one of those establishments where people refer to an unseen pastry master they refer to as "Chef." It felt like I was walking into something even Gordon Ramsey couldn't find fault in. More than anything, the food was great. The macarons, many of which are gluten free, were unique and tender. I recommend stopping in!

    Popped in to check out this place while exploring the Mission district. My friend expressed his love for it several times and mentioned they change their flavors by season. They sell a variety of eye catching items including icecreams, pastries, macarons, and truffles. We ended up trying a cranberry curd, cranberry orange relish filled vanilla tart shell topped with meringue. At first, I thought it was a bit pricey (~$12) but the quality is well worth the price. The tart shell was surprisingly soft and moist, the meringue was airy and snappy, and the curd was super smooth and tart. I would have tried all of their items but we were saving room for dinner reservations.

    Was super excited to try Sixth course on our recent visit to SF! Boy! The creativity of these desserts were gorgeous. I immediately picked a few favorites and my family picked what they wanted. The cakes tasted really good and I can see all the effort and creativity that goes into it. The staff is great too. When you walk into the store you can go to the very back and see through the glass window what looks like where all the baking happens. Very clean and neat! We also picked up a few macrons and they were delicious. Some of them tasted better than the others and some were less flavorful. We also got to park right off the street on a weekend so it wasn't super busy in the area. This is a good try if you are in the area.

    came here to buy a birthday cake for my dad - the owner came out to share her thoughts between a couple options we were debating, she was super friendly and helpful, even bringing out blueberries used in one of the cakes (Summer Blues - the one we ended up picking!) to sample, along with a "happy birthday" chocolate plaque for the occasion. the store overall was clean and simplistic, with ~12 cakes / pops to choose from on that day. the cake itself looked like a piece of art, and was superb in taste as well - well-balanced fruity and creamy flavor, not too sweet, with nice crunchy layers juxtaposing in texture. we had a great experience and will come back for future occasions!

    Are the macarons supposed to be hard and crunchy the next day? we purchase a dozen and the first day it was a bit chewy, which was how we like it, but the next day it was hard already..

    Is it open today or Tomorrow ( it says on google and yelp that it's closed all days) ? What are their hours?

    they open at 2:00

    Are any of the desserts vegan?

    As I remember, they are not vegan.

    As someone who's picky about chocolate desserts, I really enjoyed this stop…read more The hot chocolate had a deeper cacao flavor than most places, and I liked that it wasn't overly sweet or heavy. It felt much more balanced and grown-up than the usual sugary version. The pastry I tried was also nicely done.. rich, layered, and satisfying without being too much. What stood out most to me, though, was the whole atmosphere. It feels part café, part chocolate boutique, part tasting experience. Even just browsing the bars and beautifully packaged products was fun. A really nice place if you enjoy thoughtful desserts and want something that feels a little more elevated than a typical coffee-and-pastry stop.

Last year I saw how insanely popular their Tokyo store was, so I finally tried this cafe for the first time because it was unusually empty as I was passing by. I had no idea what to order because the menu wasn't conspicuous to virginal visitors. Only later did I notice the drink menu on the left wall. The openly exposed desserts are what really caught my eye first. I decided to order the $6.75 Frozen Hot Chocolate because it frankly reminded me of the decadent monstrosities at the legendary Serendipity 3 in Manhattan's Midtown East (Photo 8). It was similar but not nearly as huge of pricy. I liked it a lot though with a generous dollop of whipped cream, it was more a mid-afternoon dessert. That should've been enough, but the confections on display were too inviting. Filled with 70% Takyikrom and Ghana chocolate ganache, the $8 Apple Donut was freckled with candied apple bits and tossed in spiced sugar (Photo 9). Delightfully decadent.

I had never heard of them prior to that, but my love of Chocolate wouldn't allow me to pass this place up. I've tried their speciality chocolate beverages, and delicious pastries. Which is a 10/10, this place specializes in Dark Chocolate. To be honest I've never been a fan of it, due to its bitter taste. But Dandelion has made me a fan. I was browsing on their website one day and seen that they offer various types of Chocolate making classes. Such as chocolate tempering, Chocolate making, couples chocolate making classes etc. which all peaked my interest. So I finally decided to book a class and went with the Chocolate Bar Making Class for a friend and I. When I arrived we were greeted by our instructor Steve I believe his name was. He was awesome and very knowledgeable. We got a tour of the factory and tested out some fresh Brazilian Dark Chocolate they made which was great. The great thing about there dark chocolate is depending on the type of Cocoa and where it's from the flavor profile differs. Some more sweeter and some a bit more on the bitter side. Dandelion's chocolate is only made of Cocoa and Sugar, no fillers or fake flavors to enhance there chocolate. During the session we tasted different types of dark chocolate from different regions, and got a lesson in how the cultivate their chocolate and how they make it. We even tasted some of their amazing sipping chocolate which was amazing. Then for the good part making my own chocolate bar. We went into their kitchen where we made our chocolate bars and got to customize them. When making the chocolate bar we used a Brazilian dark chocolate which tasted a lot like a milk chocolate bar; it was great. The entire session was about 1 in half to 2 hours for 100 dollars. Note this location also is a cafe so you can get all their speciality drinks, pastries, and ready made chocolate bars here too! Overall, it was a great experience coming to Dandelion Chocolate. If you have a sweet tooth and looking for an activity to do for date night or just to learn something new. This is definitely a spot you'll enjoy in the city!

I really like that you can choose exactly how many of each flavor you want in your box. I didn't realize that before, but it's a great option because you could literally get one of everything if you wanted to try them all. I chose orange, citron/lemon, caramel, earl grey, espresso, raspberry, and hazelnut. There was also a vegan raspberry option since the regular raspberry had sold out for the day, and honestly you couldn't tell the difference. It was delicious. I also tried the lemon in store, and the raspberry was my favorite. One small thing is that once they're bagged up, it can be a little hard to tell which flavor is which since they look pretty similar on the outside. Not a big deal, just something to keep in mind if you're trying to remember what's what. The owner mentioned he's had the shop for 30 years, which you can feel when you're in there.
