About this business
Specialties: Truffle Shots (winner of 30 International Chocolate Awards), chocolate chip cookies, artisan craft chocolate bars, couverture chocolate for baking and snacking, and more. Established in 2012. Years ago, I learned to make chocolate truffles by filling hollow shells with ganache, sealing the shells, and rolling them in tempered chocolate. After the truffles set up, my chocolate-loving friends and I would break open the shells, lick out the creamy filling, and discard the shells. There must be a better way, I thoug... read more

The people working here are very passionate about chocolate. I bought their Dubai chocolate bar that they make from scratch, and it is incredible! Wish I lived closer because I would be here all the time.
I wandered in completely on a whim and was so glad I did. The owners were so sweet and clearly are passionate about chocolate, and gave me lots of great suggestions. The chocolate chip cookie was probably the best cookie I've ever had (and that's saying a lot since I've eaten many cookies). The fig balsamic truffle shot was absolutely delicious too! I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in Essex and stocking up.
What a treasure of a store this is! In addition to the truly delicious chocolate shots that are made right here there is also a carefully curated selection of the best chocolate from all over the world. Heaven for any chocolate lover!
Incredible chocolate and so many kinds. The shop looks fairly small but there’s so much variety. Good quality chocolate from different countries and the staff is super knowledgeable ! The chocolate bar shelf is categorized from least to most cocoa (left to right). Their hot cocoa is also very yummy.
