The chocolate is excellent! I tried chocolate iced tea here also and it was super good. I hope they offer that again this summer.

I stopped today for the first time to pick up truffles for my nut allergy kids. My son loved the truffles! We will definitely be back! We tried truffles from other online nut-free companies, but they never taste good. So nice to be able to buy fabulous tasting truffles for people with nut allergies!!! Thank you!

The chocolate here is amazing. It's nice to see a shop like this in Lancaster. Worth every penny.

When you walk in, you are immediately hit with this wonderful, warm smell of high-quality chocolate. Over to the left, you can watch some of the chocolate making process. When planning for our upcoming holiday party at work, a co-worker brought up Dark Forest as an idea for a favor. He had a basket of chocolate at his desk for people to try and decide on this choice for the favor. I tried the bourbon chocolate, rice, and the Madagascar chocolate. Each one was rich in flavor and absolutely heavenly. I finally made it down to the store and purchased the bourbon chocolate, the cinnamon pepper, and the coffee. They had a sample of the cinnamon pepper and I tried it and the finish was where the cinnamon came in. Delicious! These chocolates are artisanal and to be savored, not devoured like buying candy off the rack at the convenient store. Open up a bottle of wine and pair it with one of these bars with someone special, and you got yourself a great night in. There are other artisan gifts as well including bitters, and salt.

Let me start out by saying this is not your typical chocolate place like Watsons or Niagara chocolates. This place is what I would consider a designer chocolate store. It's small location and focuses on REAL cocoa. So when you first walk in, you will be hit with a not-so-pleasant smell. This is due to the cocoa beans. If you aren't familiar with that smell, it can be off-putting. Suck it up and continue on to view the limited options they have available for purchase. Everything is vegan and organic so prices are higher than other chocolate stores and you will not find things such as chocolate covered Oreos or sponge candy. You will find several types of dark chocolate candy bars, chocolate covered pretzels, cocoa coffee, etc. Be sure to try out my favorite - the skipping stones. They are dark chocolate covered toffee pieces. It's a wonderful place to find a unique chocolate gift for someone but you have to know what you are walking into or you may be disappointed.

Their chocolate is glorious. They are very ethical too in their process which is great. I wish it was a tad cheaper cuz I have a tough time spending $8 on a bar but I understand because it's bean to bar and a very artisanal process. I honestly can't pick a favorite but I'd say buy one on the milk range and one on the dark range to compare and see what's more up your alley. They are a gem though and I hope they stick around for a long time!

Great unique shop where not only do they sell chocolate, but they actually make it onsite and in viewing site. We were able to talk with the owner and hear of his start in such a unique profession. We purchased a few delicious treats along with Brewing Cacao, which you steep in a French press, pretty cool! Awesome addition to the list of unique stores in WNY
