  • Growing up in the Newtonbrook area in the mid nineties, I remember following my mother to Chocolada on several occasions, when she was looking for impressive desserts for her parties! The bakery used to have some sort of Armenian style cake that she was very fond of. I returned to Chocolada a few weeks ago, for the first time in more than ten years, and actually realized the class of this local patisserie! It becomes immediate apparent, that as long as you have a sweet tooth, you will find something that will satisfy your craving. While I did not find any Armenian delights, I did find an overwhelming variety of desserts from across the world, all tastefully decorated and looking quite fresh. The shopkeeper and owner, who were both present at the time, seem to prefer the Napoleon and eclairs if you ask them for advice. I was immediately drawn to the poppy seed roll that looked as good as ones I had found in New York! The taste and texture was a bit different (I could taste more chocolate and cinnamon and less honey in this one!), but overall I would say I prefer the one at Chocolada to the best I had tried in New York! I was also surprised to find that it is not sold by the slice or weight here, and the only choice is to buy an entire roll (~1-1.5 lb). As for the chocolate filled eclair and the beautifully arranged apple-custard pastry, I can testify both were comparable to pastries from the old Francois Payard Patisserie on Lexington Ave. (and anyone who has been will know this is not a small feat!) In addition to fresh cakes and pastries, there are also a variety of specialty and ethnic items on display, ranging from Middle Eastern tea to New Zealand honey. In short, I would definitely recommend Chocolada as a prime option for Eastern European pastries and cakes. Their beautifully kept shop, and the fact that they have kept their elegance and class after many years, has already made me a fan, and has given me a reason to visit the old 'hood more often!
