    Kashmiri chili Sipping Chocolate
    John B.

    This place bills itself as a South Asian chocolatier (seemingly on the northern side of South Asian). They had a rather spectacular spread of desserts, many including banana and date. A Kashmiri chili drinking chocolate delivered a convincingly spicy flavor. My pastries included a delectable-looking date cake and a chocolate chip cookie with bananas. The taste of tropical fruits and chocolate works awfully well together, and the chocolate was rich. There were many other cakes, pastries, and hard chocolates, any of which I suspect is well worth trying.

    While NYC has its share of cookie-cutter chocolate chain shops, I intentionally go off the grid to explore independent chocolatiers elsewhere that are more notable. No...not Godiva. Heavens no. Chocolate Uzma came up as a chocolatier I'd bookmarked a few years ago for a possible Chicago trip. Uzma Sharif takes her chocolates skills seriously and puts her heritage in each of those chocolate squares. Her flavor combinations are crafted with skill. They're daring and strangely satisfying with unexpected ingredients (Indian Chili, Turmeric+ Ginger, Hazelnut+Coriander and others) and packed in a bold yellow box. Chocolate boxes are already preselected. However, I am picky so didn't want to feel like I needed to be bounded by a pre-curated box with chocolate flavors I wasn't going to eat. Not a problem. I called and was told I can type in flavors I wanted to exclude with flavors I wanted to add. Easy. Mention must be made that if you have any dietary restriction, some of Uzma's chocolates when you order, will indicate whether they contain dairy or if they're gluten-free. But a major highlight is that Uzma Sharif's shop as a whole, is pork-free down to their marshmallows. The dark chocolate that's used is bold and complemented the rich Passion Fruit, Raspberry, Chai, Indian Chili and a few others in my box perfectly. And the melt factor was all there too. I hesitated at first and didn't want to spend the $32+$10(shipping) on a chocolate brand I haven't heard of- but so glad I did.

    They have the richest hot chocolate ever! It really gets you into the winter spirit. I love the big marshmallow on top; very aesthetic when it's served and tastes great as part of the last sip.

    Description of chocolates

    I received a 12-pc box ($32) of these as a gift from work and it was spectacular! The flavor combinations are very unique and intriguing, and the chocolates were all quite delicious and not overly sweet. My favorite chocolates were the Kala Namak (black salt caramel), Jaipur (Indian chili), and Zara (fresh raspberry). I wasn't a huge fan of the Zeera (honey cumin), but that was mostly because I found cumin to be a jarring flavor in chocolate. A minor complaint was that the description that came with the box lists 13 chocolate types, not 12, and that some of the chocolates didn't look entirely like their illustration (can't say I wasn't slightly a fan of the intrigue, though!). I think I also got some duplicates because I did not see the Moroccan Mint or Assam (lemon) or the Ginger, sadly. Also the description was placed right above the chocolates in the box, which led to some sticking of chocolate components to the paper. Overall would definitely order again for others (or myself hehe) and would love to try the other flavors!

    The baked goods here are great but the hot chocolate is on the thinner side. I thought it would be thicker since it's called drinking chocolate. Seating is fine but I feel like it's not suggested since they don't have trash cans inside or extra napkins and it can be very awkward sitting there.

    Amazing hot coca with torched marshmallow. The chocolate has a wonderful deep and rich flavor. Makes me think of a rich hot chocolate I could get at one of the high end Rick Bayless restaurants. Came here to escape a rainy spell when we came for the Renegade Craft Fair and got the hot cocoa + churro combo deal. Churro was on the harder side, but taste was good (even sugar and cinnamon coating) and the dipping chocolate paired well and the portion was just right for a snack. The layout is a bit odd, as I feel they should make more space for seating and to spread their merchandise out more. I think I witnessed someone pocket one of their expensive chocolate bars, I didn't get a full look...

    Finally stopped in after driving by many a time... very well designed space with all the sweet treats. We bought a couple of chocolate chip cookies and in my daughters words " I have had better ' I loved the names of the different chocolates ...I had a piece of the ginger dark chocolate and was not disappointed.

Keeping them out at room temperature kind of melted them so I put them in the fridge. texas heat is too much for their sensitive fruity nature ;) There's a little card which tells exactly which chocolate is what flavor . Packing is really cool. Goes great as a gift.
