I tried some of Albert's sweet treats and they were all so beautiful! They're mini works of art. I…read morealmost didn't want to even eat them! Them marshmallow chocolate hearts with raspberry geleé are so much fun. Great for a loved one. I personally like the bag of miscellaneous sweet treats. There were some tropical fruit jellies in there along with some yummy filled chocolate pieces. The hand painted blue chocolates were show stoppers that I bought for my brother's birthday. I bought these from Partake Collective and the man who helped me with my order was patient and kind. I would definitely purchase more sweet treats from Albert!

Happened to stumble across Chef Albert and his sweets collection when I went to the Partake…read moreCollective. Chef Albert is sooo friendly and personable, which I love! He let me sample the vegan chocolate honeycomb and it was quite crisp and delicate. The texture literally felt like chewing on honeycombs wrapped in chocolate. Yum! I decided to bring home the cocoa butter crisps, which the chef states is made out of Ritz crackers and chocolate. Made me quite intrigued cause when you think of Ritz crackers, you don't automatically think of chocolate. But oh my gosh, I really like them! Perfect balance of chocolate and cracker with a great amount of richness coming from the Belgian chocolate. Loved the caramel flakes on top, as well. Ambiance inside the Partake Collective provides a modern vibe with a quick grab and go experience. I like how Chef Albert's sweets are set up neatly as soon as you turn the corner up the stairs. Sweets and chocolates are always an eye catcher for me, so I am glad I saw this and got to meet Chef Albert personally. I would definitely recommend trying the variety of chocolates and sweets-- hope to come back soon when I'm in the area!

(So we actually loved our experience last time we promised to leave a review but totally forgot the name of the kind soul that helped us and been meaning to go back to get her name) I had visited a few times before, but didn't feel welcomed or felt like I had to chase someone down to sheepishly ask for a single sample which they begrudgingly handed over while I was the only one in the store. So it was hard to want to buy anything. That is, before Jessica. She was so knowledgeable and friendly, answering all our questions and offering suggestions to help us find our one true (chocolate) love. We bid adieu and walked out with some purchases of chocolate hopefully to last us a while for the sake of our wallets. So months later, finally, we went back hoping she was there and trying to remember what we liked last time (raspberry blackberry white chocolate and the blackberry dark chocolate for future reference) and would you know it, freaking Jessica chimes in from the side "Yeah last time you guys liked that one." Like wait, excuse me? You see how many people a day, a week, a month, and you remember not only our faces but also what we liked months later?? Floored. FLOORED. Of course, Jessica and the amazing team on Friday night 15 minutes before closing were amazing and happily let us try a few different things so we knew exactly what we wanted to get. We decided on the previous favorites plus the new limited edition hazelnut dark chocolate and the 90% cacao dark chocolate from India. So go check out this location at the Cerritos Mall! You're in for not only a sweet treat, but a sweet connection with people who truly care about the guest experience.

The chocolates seem a little old, as if they were sitting out for a while, you know how milk chocolate usually gets that white coating when it's super old. The chocolates were way too expensive personally I think it's a little tourist trap being on the boardwalk in downtown Long beach. The woman behind the counter didn't seem enthusiastic about being there which sort of added to the negative experience. I give them two stars just because it was not a good experience and overpriced for what we got.

A very welcoming vibe upon entry, we were greeted by a friendly couple who answered our questions about popular drink flavors. We decided to go with a Hot Cinnamon Dulce Latte and an Iced Blueberry Lavender Latte. While waiting, there were plenty of chairs, tables, a comfy couch and even a bar area to sit and relax. Tons of board games, books and wonderfully mellow music helps make the experience feel comforting and inviting. Our drinks were prepared quickly and shouted at the coffee bar for pickup. The presentation was great, but the flavors, out of this world! The Cinnamon Dulce Latte was OUTSTANDING. So good, in fact, that my girlfriend stole it from me! Not to worry, her Blueberry Lavender Latte was also top-notch, with a smooth, not-to-sweet flavor combination. Friendly staff (which comes with occasional karaoke renditions from the Bluetooth speakers), a chill vibe and outstanding drinks make this a top spot in the area for hardcore coffee lovers. Check them out!

Whenever I come in here everyone has a smile on their face. So 5 stars for staff always being helpful and friendly. Especially 5 stars for Jessica This place has a private lot in the back This location is very clean. I've never been to one that wasn't Sees Candy has been around for over 100 years and for a good reason. It's absolutely delicious!!! If you've ever needed a reason to go grab some candy?

I liked the lemon, it was not tart. The biscoff u can never go wrong with that cookie butter flavor! And the oatmeal was pretty great as well.
