| - Very expensive chocolate boutique, and more upscale than Godiva. Chocolate is around $2 per piece, and the cheaper (thinner) candy bars were $4 (the large, multiple caramel-filled square one was $9 if I remember correctly). Check out the website for the Biltmore Takeout menu (note that it doesn't include everything they sell, nor does the website's online store).
Their ingredients are first-rate, and they're local, so I feel a little bit better about spending a chunk of change on a friend's gift (I needed to get something unique and local).
The packaging (nice shopping bag, pink tissue paper, fancy boxes) is very nice, though be aware that boxed sets carry a small premium for the extra fancy packaging and plastic seal.
I haven't had anything they sell here myself beyond a few tiny free samples, but what I did taste was very smooth and creamy, both milk and dark.
Thankfully, holiday boxed sets are 25% off now, while supplies last!
