Laderach is wonderful and very delicious Belgian Chocolate. I was walking around the Mall with my friend and we were offered a delicious bite, I was incredibly delighted immediately! You must absolutely make an extra stop at this wonderful specialty store and buy some chocolate gifts for yourself and for a hostess gift!!

I am giving this extremely famous chocolate (or is it?) a 2 star because this chocolate is so overpriced that it is ridiculous, lol!! it's even laughable at this point. It's one of these situations where people take great pride in spending $30-50 on tiny amount of chocolate. It's actually not the chocolate that matters anymore. It's the price they pay. Great marketing idea: make a bunch of wannabe rich pay a very high price for some extremely rare commodity (as chocolate is apparently). so they feel like they have reached the top of the barrel by overpaying by a huge margin. But hey, if this works as a marketing strategy, kudos!I am not saying the chocolate is not good, it is good but not at the price it is offered. Total rip off. And if the people who are getting ripped off are happy, fabulous business strategy ;-)

First time bought five pieces dark chocolate. I ate two I think was to sweet. Dark chocolate should be last sugar.To small and expensive.

Laderach is a Belgian style specialty chocolate shop. If you are looking for a selection of distinctive chocolate flavors, this is the right place.When I come here to buy a box of chocolates, I'll always get a larger size, simply because they have so many flavors, all distinct from each other and every one of them is delicious.When I want to get a special gift for someone, this is among my first choices. The staff is always friendly, helping me choose a great selection of chocolates. I always enjoy hanging out here and checking out the great merchandise.

Came here to purchase a gift for my boss but ended up buying some for myself! The employee was helpful regarding nutrition information and provided me with 2 samples- the milk chocolate hazelnut bark & the 80% dark chocolate. This is high quality chocolate made from organically sourced ingredients! The best chocolate I've ever tasted in my life. I'll never eat See's candies again. I ended up leaving the store with the bark boat, the 80% dark chocolate bar, dark chocolate covered corn flakes, the truffle box & the pralines box. Yes, it's expensive but worth every penny.

My friends and I went in yesterday (Tuesday) at around 6/7pm where we noticed a girl handing out samples. She was a shorter person (maybe 5 ft?) with long black hair which was nicely placed half up in a claw clip so her hair wasn't in the way of any chocolate. She was so nice and very welcoming of my friends and I to try other samples. One thing to note is that not only are their milk chocolates tasty and smooth but their dark chocolate is also very pleasant to eat! I'm not a fan of dark chocolate but this place might have converted me. The sample we got had nuts and it was not overpowering at all and was pretty smooth on the taste buds. We had no intention of buying anything at first but after discussing the options offered at this shop we each ended up buying a slab of chocolates. I bought the hazelnut milk chocolate which has candied hazelnuts and a slab of the strawberry one. They were individually packaged and placed in a nice bag as well. We were notified that each month they have a new flavor that is available for a limited time and for the day we went it was a ginger type of chocolate. I don't remember what else it contained but it's definitely for someone a bit more on the adventurous side.Overall, I would definitely come back! I hope to run into the nice girl again since she was very knowledgeable of her job and made us feel very welcome into the store.

Late review ~I went on 4/28/23. I first tried them last summer. My family and I are a big fan of their chocolates. They're not overly sweet. The employees are very friendly and welcoming. Sometimes it gets overwhelming from seeing all the choices. The store is clean and well lit. I bought some today to give some treats for the lovely school secretaries and some for a birthday treat for my niece.

Chocolate is delicious. I’ve had the pralines and truffles, each is a unique piece to savor. I think it’s so expensive since it’s all imported from Switzerland. I love the bark options.I just wish they had online or over the phone ordering. Being all the way in Santa Cruz, it’s not always easy to get there in time. It’d be nice to know I can get what I want without having to rush over first thing in the morning.It’s 2023 so they should add that feature.

Amazing chocolate, one of the best when it comes to taste. It melts in your mouth.Unfortunately very rude costumer service. We were purchasing multiple packs of their chocolates, and I set them close to cashier. My husband went to ask for sample. After the first sample, the lady asked him, if he is there just to try samples or if he is actually going to purchase! It was very rude, we never had this kind if customer service in other Laderach stores.We have been constant costumer of Laderach chocolate, will go to either Stanford or other places to get our chocolate. Not this place.

These chocolates are definitely delicious but seems over-priced. Good for one time purchase to actually understand why it's pricey .

Hmmm, what's Läderach? You'll find them if you stroll through Valley Fair mall and come across a see-through window of all kinds of beautiful chocolate slabs with different colors - that's what got me, and the name Läderach. Uh yes, you got my attention!I never really cared for chocolate until I had a sample of Läderach chocolate barks and was impressed. Me: "WOW, so this is what good chocolate taste like?!" I walked out of the store spending more on chocolate than on food with different truffles and even their chocolate-covered popcorn came back two weeks later and purchased their delicious variety of chocolate barks. Favorite flavors: anything hazelnut, coffee infused/flavored truffles, pistachio, and the unique strawberry bark was my all-time favorite.Price: high-end $$$Quality: Exceptional So if you happen to visit Valley Fair, stop by and give their chocolates a try!

I have been longingly looking at the slabs of chocolates in the window displays for years and avoiding it for years! It was a test of my self-discipline and I finally caved and went it a couple of days ago. This is truly a magical place for a chocophile like me and I think this is what heaven must look like. The chocolate hazelnut and strawberry chocolate were great and went fast! Andrea who waited on us was awesome and super helpful and cheerful.
