Elf and Christmas themed cookies

Thank you to Zenaida and The Chocolate Dozen for another amazing delivery of cookies (almost) too cute to eat. The Elf cookies were a hit at our party, bringing smiles to everyone who saw them...before they disappeared! Kids really enjoyed decorating their own sugar cookies, which was a great activity for them. It was a great experience from ordering to delivery to eating the delicious, beautiful cookies. Thank you!

Zenaida was so helpful and took on a very last minute custom cookie order for me for my friends 30th birthday party! She was very prompt and responded to my emails and texts very quickly, from my initial inquiry until pickup. I had started to reach out to other people who do custom cookies locally 3-4 weeks in advance (as most of their websites say that is the minimum requirement) and either didn't get a response or they were booked months in advance, which was partially my fault because I forgot about Christmas cookie orders. I made one last ditch effort a week and a half before the party to try to find someone and The Chocolate Dozen was the only one to get back to me! For a reasonable rush fee I was able to get the cookies ordered by the next day and Zenaida was able to finish 18 custom cookies within a week. She sent me a photo of them once completed and it was exactly what I wanted and very close to my inspo photo! They were a highlight and hit at the party too, everyone loved them and it really made the night more special and tied in with the theme perfectly! Those that ate them at the party (instead of taking them home) said they tasted great as well. Extremely happy with how they turned out and would absolutely order from Zenaida and The Chocolate Dozen again!

Best cookies ever.

Utterly amazing cookies and great service. I had ordered one week off but they were able to get this in last minute on mother's day weekend nonetheless. Can't wait to treat ourselves to some more.

Coming back from the Peninsula we knew we'd be near San Ramon, so I thought to check if there were…read moreany interesting ice cream places. I like shops that make their own high-quality, premium ice cream with interesting flavors as a bonus. The oddly named Salt and Straw seemed to fit the bill - that's all we needed to check it out! It turns out they are in the Shops at Bishop Ranch, quite a nice location. There was a decent line (always a good sign) and lots of people outside eating their ice cream. It's purely a to-go location, no seating. I was impressed by their organization, having three different people serving orders. They replicate their ice cream assortment behind the front counter for all servers can serve customers - this was a first for us. They are more efficient than my local bank! A cool little thing is they use metal spoons for their samples and there's a discard hole in the front counter wall to dispose of the used spoons. The samples definitely taste better with a metal spoon versus the normal plastic things. I had the Salted, Malted, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough - props for the creative name! My wife had the Cinnamon Snickerdoodle. We strolled outside and found a table to try these guys out. Oh my. From the first bites we were sold. This cookie dough was unlike any I've ever had, truly unique and bursting with flavor. My wife loved her Cinnamon Snickerdoodle, real cinnamony! We have never had better ice cream. A new Gotta Stop By whenever we are around San Ramon.

After dinner, we stopped into Salt & Straw for some ice cream. A very popular and crowded Creamery…read morewhich always has a line. I like their uniqueness of flavor concoctions especially their seasonal flavors of coconut cherry pie with almond crust. Their newest concoction was melon & prosciutto. I didn't try this flavor but was intrigued by it. The staff is very nice moving the line of people through as quickly as possible. Offering samples of their flavors. My wife and I shared a scoop of Chocolate Gooey Brownie which was rich, creamy, and chocolate-y. She always gets this flavor whenever she visits Salt & Straw.

The only chocolate I came across were the chocolate-covered gummies, so if you're a chocolate lover like me, you might leave craving more. They also offer other sweets like cookies and cupcakes, but the real star here is the sour candy. It's easy to get carried away while filling your bag--everything looks so tempting! I'll definitely keep this place in mind whenever I'm in the mood for sour candy. Service was pleasant with a smile!

We noticed tables of candies and a whole wall of candy that you can choose from each candy was labeled with different countries where the candies came from which I thought was pretty cool. The people asked us if we need any help to let them know. We did notice that the prices were pretty high. So for 1 pound of candy in the bag it was $25. However, the girls did pick out a couple pieces of candy for each and we spent about $4.50. This place is definitely cute and provides a lot of different types of candies, but it is kind of pricey. I would definitely still come back when I have the extra funds.

I realized it is really good, better than I remember for some reason, so I'm updating my review…read more And the prices are amazing. The triple scoop comes out to less than $3 per scoop. I recommend sharing a triple scoop because that's cheaper than buying 2 singles. I think gelato at this price is unheard of in the bay area, let alone in Blackhawk/Danville of all places. I guess the rent isn't too bad because the place is small, but it is nice and the service is really good too! Definitely will be back! I'm actually no longer as surprised at the stellar ratings. I mean 4.9 star average is still insane, but I'd expect nothing less than 4.5-4.7 to be honest. I like the pistachio, biscoff, cookies and cream, stracciatella, vanilla, and dubai chocolate flavors. The waffle cone is included in the price so make sure to specifically ask for it, I made the mistake of not specifying and it would be 50 cents on the side (probably due to sharing, the single scoop is $5.99 and the triple scoop is $7.99)

I was really excited to see a gelato spot in this area! I went on a Sunday evening and it wasn't…read moretoo busy, so I was able to get my order pretty quickly. Unfortunately, the gelato itself didn't quite live up to my expectations. The texture wasn't as silky or creamy as I'd expect from gelato, and the flavors felt a little light and lacking in richness. I'd probably come back if I'm craving something sweet, but it wouldn't be my first choice for gelato. The service was great, though! Gelato: 6.5/10 Service: 9/10

Salmon crepe: 4/5- this came with a salad with light dressing. Crepe itself was slightly crispy with a nice mixture of salmon, spinach and egg. Good combination. Added Tapatio for some heat. Menu did say it was spicy but didn't pick up on that. Shibuya Honey Toast: 5/5 - I was intrigued by the name and picture in the store. When it arrived, it was presented nicely with chocolate and vanilla ice cream with blueberries and strawberries around the plate. The Honey bread itself has a nice crisp to it with the right balance of sweetness to it. My wife and I devoured this. Definitely recommended. Overall, this was a great spot if you are craving crepes. Service is attentive and friendly.
