Needless to say I will have to make the trip to stop by again!

It was dark chocolate sea salt caramel, omg it was love at first bite!!!! I'm normally a milk chocolate girl, well this chocolate was the best I have ever tried. Needless to say I purchase a few boxes, two for me and one for a friend. I saw these roses and couldn't pass them up, not only are they so perfectly made, but they're only $4.50. They had both milk chocolate and dark chocolate. I purchased two for my mom. The only down fall for this cute location is parking, if you're lucky you will find street parking near by

One of the lady's there ( I think owner) over heard I ask my wife about coffee in Spanish and she corrected me, have some in-site and left me wondering....

We got the hot fudge brownie sundae, which was absolutely delicious. It had a warm brownie with great classic ice cream, and the whole thing was very chocolatey and satisfying. Exactly the kind of thing I needed on a hotter day. The portion is a lot, we shared it among five people, and we all got enough of a sweet-craving fix from it.

But the gold rush is also my go to since I don't like chocolate anything. The sea salt and caramel mix is so well with the whipped cream and ice cream.

It was $10 for a medium, and I'll admit I had a moment when I saw the price -- but from the very first sip, I was astounded. It was THAT good. This was my first visit to Alta. I'd come across it online while planning my trip to Monterey, and I'm so glad I made the time to stop in. The food and pastries in the cases were absolutely beautiful, and the café itself had such a cool, relaxed ambiance. The prices are definitely not for the faint of heart, but the quality of everything they sell makes them a little easier to... swallow. My only regret is that I left my phone behind and couldn't take pictures to share. The whole place was really impressive. I would absolutely stop here again -- and yes, I'd pay $10 for that coffee again!

We waited about 20 minutes to get inside, but once we reached the counter, the ordering process was quick and efficient. The shop itself is pretty small, but there's outdoor seating if you want to enjoy your ice cream nearby. They had so many unique flavors that it was hard to choose! I ended up getting the Kids Cookie Dough, and it did not disappoint. It was perfectly sweet and absolutely packed with cookie dough pieces, every bite had some. My husband ordered the Apple Pie flavor, and it was just as delicious. The balance of cinnamon and apple was spot on without either flavor overpowering the other. Now we understand why there's always a line. If we're back in the Monterey area, we'll definitely be stopping by again!

The honey comb is in large chunks so it brought a great texture throughout the scoop. You can also get unique toppings such as a melted marshmallow or more honey comb.

Unfortunately you are not allowed to sample flavors but the girl working said they are always happy to make a new scoop for you if you don't like the flavor you received.

I always look at the chocolates there and while it's pricey, it's definitely worth it, although I can never finish it in one sitting. Though like the apple, it can always be eaten over the course of a few days to extend the delightfulness! While the sweet treats are great, customer service is always a hit or miss and until you flag someone down, they won't come to help you unless you're by the register. Though on a slower day, they're a tad more pleasant. It's also a small shop with a huge bear inside so you can only fit so many people plus a stroller, so best to leave them out if possible.
