| - I am not a huge chocolate fan....but after coming here, I think I may have changed my mind. I would never have thought of coming into this cute boutique shop if it weren't for the Yelp Elite event that I attended. Julia Baker was there and told us how she got to where she was. What an amazing woman and such a go-getter. I could've sat there and listened to her talk all night. I wish her the best of luck with her future endeavors including her show coming up on the Food Network.
During this stop, Julia served us with Prosecco - I'm not a huge fan, but she accommodated by offering Moscato - now that's what I like! We were also served a chocolate martini...in my mind, I kept thinking, ugh, I'm not going to like this....but after I took my sip, I chugged that thing down and wanted more! The chocolate was so creamy and the alcohol content in there just made it perfect.
Three desserts were served - a chocolate hazelnut with a cookie-like crust at the bottom. Again, not a chocolate lover, but this was absolutely scrumptious and I cleaned off that dessert like it was nobody's business. Second dessert was red velvet - which was just that, velvety and delicious. Not dry and perfectly moist. The last dessert was her white chocolate with passion fruit and coconut. Because I do not like coconut, this was my least favorite.
We were also given a little 2-piece sample in a cute box with a pink ribbon on it. When I got home, my 5-year old gobbled it down before I could even eat it!! He came to me with chocolate all around his mouth saying it was delicious. I believe him!
This place has a back area that can be curtained off for private parties, book clubs, showers, etc. I will definitely be coming back to this gem and buy gifts for friends in the future!
And Julia, if you're reading this....maybe we have met somewhere before....I used to work in the hotel & restaurant industry and I know Chuck amongst some other Chefs....so I'm sure we have crossed paths before. :) Hope to see you again!
