Dancing Bear Chocolate is an incredible local gem and must-try located in the Victory neighborhood of North Minneapolis. Owned by a chef and chocolatier, it offers locally made artisan chocolates, confections, pastry, and gelato. The shop provides a very nice store with delicious items including excellent almond flour cake, heavenly key lime pie, and the best lemon bar. Their chocolate is amazing, very good, and rich, featuring hand-dipped truffles, a delicious sampler box, and favorites like the middle pistachio chocolate and candied orange peel. Other fun, delicious offerings include out-of-this-world pastries, yummy English toffee, incredible housemade gelato, and very good peanut butter. It is a must-visit for any chocolate lover.
Friendly service and premium products. Great mix of sweet and savory options. Great gifts for others and pick up something for yourself. A gem in the Victory neighborhood! Have been a customer since day 1!

Genuinely the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had. Will absolutely be returning. Good sized and incredible quality for the price.

Absolutely LOVE! The pesto bowtie pasta and the sprinkle covered chocolates were my personal favorite. Cannot wait to try the chocolate zucchini bread. Must stop - you have no clue what you’ll stumble upon in here to buy!
