This place is a staple when you are showing friends around downtown. They make so many sweets, and the woman behind the counter was giving us samples and explaining all sorts of things to us. My favorite is the chocolate-covered smores. So I had to get one. This place absolutely blew my partner's mind, 'kid in a candy shop' was exactly it. I will continue to bring friends to experience the greatness that is Sweet on Chocolate. read more

Amazing local business selling delicious chocolate delicacies! I had the pleasure of tasting their truffles and chocolate covered strawberries. You can absolutely tell that they use high quality chocolates for their products. The chocolate was balanced and smooth.

This was just my second time in Sweet on Chocolate. I wanted to pick up stocking stuffers and gifts for family members. The staff is always friendly and helpful with picking out goodies. We picked up some vegan treats for family (they loved it). It's not the first time we picked up their chocolate, I usually pick up their bars at local shops around town. The bars are usually my go to for teachers for the first day of school, Christmas or end of the year gift in a basket. You can find their chocolate around town in local shops if you can't make it downtown. read more

I wish I knew how anything was here this was the 2nd time I've entered this establishment and approached the counter or just respectfully stood there looking like I was ready to order. Literally 4 people working just now and not even a Hello. It feels so awkward. Anyways, we left and drove straight to Speach .. read more

First, I love chocolate. Sweet on Chocolate is a chocolate haven. I didn't want to leave. The scent of chocolate in the air was intoxicating. Then a voice from behind the counter asked,"Can I help you?" I started ordering like a man on a mission. Beautifully designed truffles decorated the display. From creams to ganaches to a few boozy selections Then you had chocolate covered graham crackers to Oreos, chocolate bark... The list goes on. Did I forget chocolate covered potato chips . There is so much more to mention but I'll leave the journey of decadence up to you. Thanks to the ladies working tirelessly to create these beautiful works of art. Their charm & lovely smiles made the trip worth it. Did I mention I love chocolate. read more

My nose literally led me to this amazing place! While downtown for a festival, a few friends and I were walking and were literally captivated by this heavenly scent. I followed my nose and led me to Sweet on Chocolate. This is such an adorable chocolate shop. It's very bright and inviting and filled with tons of chocolate. The owners were very kind and friendly. They had no problems answering the few questions we had in regard to their truffle flavors. Finally, a decision was made, and I opted to try 2 chocolate covered oreos (different flavor profiles), a chocolate covered berry, margarita truffle, and their salted caramel rice krispy treat. They were all amazing!!! I was a little bummed that I had offered to share (lol). Some things are worth being a little selfish over, and these delightful chocolate covered treats are definitely one of them. I'm so glad I stumbled upon them & will definitely be a returning customer. read more

Really enjoyed the truffles from this sweet spot. I was first introduced at a Christmas cookie exchange and I had to grab a box for myself. The store is decorated so cute for the holidays. The staff was super nice- they explained the way they make the hot chocolate which is super rich. Probably the best I've had in the area. The truffles and creams are fabulous. I loved each and every one I got- nutella and cookies and cream are my favorite though. I think these were really fairly priced too. read more

This place is great! My coworkers and I stopped on our lunch to grab a treat during the week. Even though the sweets are delicious, the biggest win for me is the staff! The service is amazing. Walking in, my group of three were instantly greeted and offered help. The staff asked if we had any questions, wanted to try samples and overall were very inviting! The espresso truffle was my personal fav. They offer a variety of fudge, truffles (some seasonal flavors), coffee, hot chocolate, and different chocolate dipped goodies. Prices were also reasonable. We bought a box of 15 truffles for $18 that we were able to choose from what seemed like dozens of different flavors. They have a couple different build you own box options for their sweet treats. If you're downtown in Syracuse, I would highly recommend stopping by for some espresso truffles! read more

I shipped some chocolates to my 85 year old dad for his birthday. When he opened the package, it was put together like garbage. They didn't even wrap it so all the chocolates were in one big lump with some melted together. In my shipping directions, I specifically askEd them also to patiently ring the doorbell and allow him enough time to answer it, which they obviously did not relay to the Postal Service, and will not take responsibility for this, so his package was sitting outside for many hours. once my dad opened the package and rearranged everything and separated all the clumps of melted chocolate, he put it back together in a box and set aside. I emailed the owner and basically was gaslit, I was wrong, They were right type of thing. And they blamed everything on the mailcarrier. The icing on the cake for us was when my dad tried to eat his first and last one of their chocolates only to find a huge clump in the center of it. I was unsatisfied due to poor quality and them not following shipping directions as I requested. Earlier on,I was just going to let it go and learn from my mistake from ordering from them and just not ever do it again. However, after messaging the owner to alert him of these issues (in order to allow them the chance to do better and resolve this), I was only met with resistance and denial, and the unwillingness, to be accountable. At this point, I feel the public needs to know what kind of business this is. This place does not appear to be following Department of Health guidelines, as there should be no reason why clumps of hair are baked into their chocolates . read more

For over 20 years, Sweet on Chocolate has been serving up handmade sweets from truffles to creams to clusters and barks in CNY. While the ownership has changed, their commitment to delivering homemade small batch treats has stayed the same. I first tried Sweet on Chocolate for a Yelp Elite event. Tried 6 different kinds of truffles and every one was absolutely delicious. My favorites were the cookies and cream and black raspberry. A couple weeks later, I went back and planned to try some different things from them. I picked up a cherry cream, a coconut haystack, a piece of s'mores bark, a turtle cluster and one of their homemade peanut butter cups. Again, everything was absolutely delicious. Its a nicely decorated shop inside. I believe it was the owner who waited on me both times and he was very friendly and patient, explaining what everything was. The prices are a tad high, but the quality of what you're getting from them is 100% worth the price. It's on Walton St, which is one of the easier downtown streets to find parking on, so that wasn't a problem. I don't find myself downtown much, but I would absolutely return in the future. read more

Parking is on the street. Prices average $29.00lb I love bark, I could have gone crazy buying all their flavors so I chose a unique flavor. CINNAMON CHURRO BARK it was excellent. Great taste and you could taste the cinnamon. Spouse loves orange creams so got her a few and she really enjoyed the flavor with their milk chocolate. Potato chip covered in chocolate. Both dark and milk oh so good. Lastly graham cracker chocolate covered yummy. If you want a treat truffles are flavorful and you can go crazy with all their goodies. Pre ordered and it was boxed beautiful and was all ready for pickup read more

Sweet on Chocolate is THEE place to get you chocolatey chocolate fix in upstate NY! I love this small locally owned chocolate business! Every truffle and bar is made right in the store. The owner and his team are fantastic. They are welcoming and can help you out with any type of chocolate questions you have! My wife and I enjoy hiking Adirondack mountains. We enjoy celebrating our summits with a Sweet on Chocolate bar! Our favorite is Cherry Almond!!! Sweet on Chocolate also makes delicious hot chocolate. You can actually watch them use their own chocolate when creating your drink! They are located in downtown Syracuse's Armory Square district. If you're not from New York state they have a map for their customers to pin there location they are visiting from. My parents were so excited to do this when they visited from Colorado!

Adam is amazzzzzzzzing and so is his staff. We constantly joke we'll need to try one of everything and as insane as that may seem - they do offer that as a menu item. Crazy right? I'd be eating chocolate for days, no complaints though! The team just brings so much joy to the community and seeing people on their way out with big smiles is incredible. Walking in getting hit with that Willy Wonka whiff of chocolate yummy amazingness gets me every time. The hot chocolates were something else I was excited to try and let me tell you, they did not disappoint. I don't think anything in that store ever could. The wide selection of various chocolates and goodies to choose from are wonderful and I easily could spend my entire pay check there week after week. It's in a great location downtown and the space is super lovely with those big glass cases full of beautifully hand crafted candy perfection. read more

Lured by social media posts of lavender truffles, I stopped in to pick up some treats to go. Oh. My. Goodness. Everything was heavenly. No lie. I'm pretty sure Sweet On Chocolate's second location is at the pearly gates, because this stuff is pure paradise. The lavender truffles were just as lovely as expected-- sweet, but not overwhelmingly so, with a light floral flavor. I also tried three other truffle flavors-- champagne, cookies and cream, and chambord, each with their own distinct taste and perfect level of richness. The fillings were the perfect consistency, and the outer coating wasn't at all chalky-- these are truly well crafted chocolates. I also picked up a birthday cake chocolate covered oreo and PB chocolate rice krispie treat, which both held their own. The rice krispie treat was especially mind-blowing, as it had a layer of creamy, gooey peanut butter in the middle-- this will definitely be a repeat purchase. I've yet to have anything bad here, and there's plenty more in the case I'd like to try. Will be back, for certain! read more

Service without a smile. Felt as if it was a burden to be giving their store business. Will not return.

Adam (I think was his name?) is truly the most enthusiastic employee I have ever met. He made our hot chocolate with the flair of a chef in a Michelin rated restaurant. Unbelievable. Said hot chocolate was how I imagine the hot chocolate on the Polar Express would taste, visions of Tom Hanks' CGI head were floating in front of my eyes. Very rich, very thick. For what you're getting the chocolate is very reasonably priced and of good quality. There is a Billy Fucillo-level HUGE selection of sweets. Mix and match for $26 a pound. The nutella truffles, almond clusters ans pistachio clusters were great. read more

I wanted to get a small box of candy at the last minute for the holidays. Sweet on Chocolate is in the neighborhood and I love to shop the stores that are within walking distance from my condo, I'm a true city girl. Also love to shop local!

Everything from nonpareils, chocolate covered graham crackers, peanut clusters, chocolate covered potato chips, truffles, and chocolate covered strawberries. I thought the prices were very reasonable. The service was great. I will definitely be back for all my chocolate needs. read more

During a day spent with my niece we decided to walk around downtown after a trip to the Most. Since the entire day was about spoiling her, when I saw this establishment I knew we had to stop so she could pick something out. The shop has a very small store front but it is large enough to accommodate all of the great chocolates available. We both got some truffles and peanut butter cups. It was very hot out that day so we found a bench outside and ate our treats right away so they wouldn't melt. From first bite we were in heaven. Our treats were the perfect mix of chocolate and peanut butter or raspberry and mint from my truffles. It took next to no time at all for our treats to be gone. It tasted great! The staff member there was also very friendly and let my niece take her time as she tried to figure out what the different chocolates were and what she wanted. Overall, we had a great experience and I highly suggest coming here to treat yourself! read more

This small chocolate store in heart of Armory Square is about as good as it gets! They have a huge assortment of different chocolates that will satisfy just about any craving you could possible have. I am a huge fan of the chocolate covered pretzels. They have quite a few different flavors that enhance the pretzel! My wife is a huge fan of the truffles. She really loves the raspberry flavor. You have to be really careful here as there are so many amazing things, you could end up spending a ton of money and having a little buyers remorse. You can tell them ahead of time what your budge is though, that way you don't buy a ton of pretzels and cherries like I did once and end up paying over 15 bucks! I'm not in anyway grumpy about that though because my hungry eyes was my own undoing. What I love is the location. They are really the perfect walking distance from pretty much anywhere in Armory...heck anywhere downtown for that matter. I usually like to eat a tasty meal from one of the surrounding restaurants and then duck in here for some dessert. I highly recommend coming here. If your from outside of the city, its worth the drive on its own! read more

We literally fell into this candy store a month ago when visiting NY. A month later on a leisure trip, we made it a point to stop in and stock up again. This is literally the neatest little chocolate shop you'll ever see. Small, quaint with lots of character and an amazing selection of chocolates. From bricks of dark chocolate to elaborate bark concoctions this is the best selection I've seen... And it's really good to eat as well read more
