    Assorted bonbons
    Seth P.

    Large assortment of chocolate bonbons, candies, caramels, nougat, and pate de fruit. Located right off of the center square in downtown Woodstock, EJ Bonbons and Confections carries a few vegan items among the fancy chocolate treats. Pate de fruit are small sugar coated fruit gels and are made with real fruit, natural coloring, and no gelatin. We bought the blueberry vegan dark chocolate bon bons and the wrapped peach caramels which are also vegan. I love how they cut the first bonbons in each row to show the cross section of each bonbon with amazing fillings Check it out

    Really tasty little morsels with unique flavors like PB & J, mango passion fruit, and lychee rose. I'm so spoiled by NYC chocolate shop Varsano's but these were still great. Quaint inside with window seating. Really enjoyed all the chocolates we had.

    b.overly_delicious @ejchocolates Woodstock, NY: In honor of Valentine's Day, we had the Ulster Eateries Unfiltered meetup at an indulgently rich chocolatier. EJ's BonBons, is a husband and wife team with Michelin star pedigree. Owners Emily and Pierre, had previously worked at Per Se (3 Michelin ), in Manhattan, under Chef Thomas Keller. Per Se offers their prix-fixe chef tasting menu starting at $390 per person but good luck getting a reservation. Presented to you at the end of your meal is a golden box filled with the wildest most beautiful bon bons. Emily and Pierre are bringing their expertise and culinary training to us here in Emily's hometown of Woodstock. Knowing that she is producing 3 Michelin star quality chocolates for $3 per work of art (which is what these are) is crazy. I'm totally hooked. Not sure whitch is my favorite. Bananna speckulious or passionfruit! The salted carmel was a literal flavor journey and be sure to get the best up of hot chocolate around. #woodstock #bonbons #ejsbonbons #chocolate #hveats #eater #perse #michelinstar #hvfoodies #igfoods #bonbon #ulster #hudsonvalley #ulstereateriesunfiltered #chocolates @above_weddings

    Will Work For Chocolate

    Warning: this may cause chocolate addiction (if you're not already addicted). Owners here launched a Chocolate business in the midst of the pandemic- which is a bold move. EJ Bonbons' design has airiness written all over it as soon as you walk in. Plus these folks are bringing their love of Chocolate and expertise to Woodstock. Expect to see nougat but the highlight at EJ's (to me): are gorgeous looking Truffles that'll blow your mind once you taste them- at this Old Forge Rd Chocolate shop. I'm extremely fussy when it comes to chocolate truffles- and my 6 piece Raspberry, Strawberry Cheesecake, Matcha and Passion Fruit selection was rich, robust and decadent. Price for the 12 piece here doesn't bother me. I pay more than that with shipping+ taxes+etc when I order online from a Boston Chocolatier or if I'm visiting- so the $32 price tag here is perfect. There was another Chocolate shop in Woodstock's main hub which I visited a while back, but that was short-lived maybe because they focused mostly on chocolate bars and not truffles(?). But I'm really rooting for EJ because this town needed a serious chocolate truffle shop. Now.... if they can only add cocoa-dusted truffles and a Hot Chocolate to their menu- then we're talking!

    PB&J, salted caramel, banana pie, & raspberry lemon
    Kara M.

    Wow just wow. I truly transported to another heavenly world when I took my first bite. I cannot rave enough about the banana pie - the banana flavor is so smooth and melts in your mouth. It's the perfect amount of banana flavor and compliments the dark chocolate coating perfectly. The graham cracker layer added a subtle crunch. I had an out of body experience eating this bonbon, but I also recommend PB&J, and raspberry lemon!

    The chocolates here were pretty good. The service were also great. Very friendly and polite.

    After easily walking into EJ Bonbons and Confections, ordering, and then eating some of the best chocolate I've ever had, I wondered how I could walk in the store so easily? I have been to "lesser" chocolatiers with long lines at the counter, but with the quality of EJ Bonbons and Confections there should be lines around the block. As advertised every single bonbon is an individual piece of art. Also as advertised owners Pierre (who I met) and Emily most certainly use the highest quality ingredients because these are simply the most delicious, delicate, identifiably balanced flavored chocolates ever. There is something for everyone - Regular, Dairy-Free, Nut-Free, Gluten-Free and Alcohol-Free. Ok I will keep this simple, each and every bonbon tasted - not kind'a - but exactly like the described flavor. Peanut Butter and Jelly tasted like, yup peanut butter and Jelly. Same with the Black Forest, Caramel Apple, Vanilla Bean, and Cranberry Orange. Now you can try to eat the bonbon in more than one bite, it is possible because I saw it, but for me I'm all in. Now this is important - EJ Bonbons are subtle and perfectly balanced so no one flavor drowns out the other. No big sugar rush or overly sweet "candy" taste that masks the real flavors. Just Perfection Confections. The same holds true for the chocolate covered nuts and for some this may be a shock. The first bite will remind you all flavors are important, and like the bonbons the chocolate cover nuts are smooth and addicting. Looking for amazing look no further that EJ Bonbons and Confections in Woodstock NY.

    24 truffles

    Bar far the best truffles I've ever had anywhere. The Champagne truffle is insane and the blueberry lemon was fantastic. Banoffee pie took us on a flavor journey.

    Strawberry Cheesecake Bon Bon
    James F.

    World class bon bons and confections. Yes it's not cheap but neither is dinner at Per Se and this is the quality of the bon bons they sell here. Don't let the pretty exterior of these delights make you think they are all for show. We got a box of 4: Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Blueberry, Mango Passionfruit and Salted Caramel. Considering I've eaten at Per Se several times I can vouch for the fact that these are the same quality one would get with a $500 per person dinner.

    A work of art- inside and out!

The aesthetic is…read moregorgeous but very welcoming; we went on a beautiful day so we opted to sit outside on their nice shady balcony. We chose SILVIA because the menu is vegetable forward and as a vegetarian there were several dishes I had to try. Both my omni partner and I loved the mushroom lentil pâté, stuffed artichokes, and smoked beets we had for appetizers. The pâté is rich and flavorful and the pickled veggies it's served with are so good we only wished the dish came with more of them. The artichokes were perfectly tender and are stuffed with raclette and ramp (YUM), and the lemon breadcrumbs they're topped with pair so well with the cheese, and add a lovely brightness and zing. The smoked beets were also perfectly tender with a deep rich smokey flavor, and the chimichurri they come with does a nice job to add brightness (There's a theme here of rich flavors paired with brightness to make your palette pop). For an entrée we opted to share the local mushroom & pasta rags dish. the pasta rags were cooked nicely, soft but still toothy, and the mushrooms, black garlic butter, and thyme added a rich deep flavor. I was obsessed with the amount of parmigiano reggiano the pasta was topped with -- I could've eaten plate after plate of this dish. Their cocktail menu seems to be just as well thought out as their food with some unique offerings. I tried and enjoyed both Mezcal options. Service was warm, knowledgeable, and attentive. TL;DR: beautiful space, absolutely delicious food, plenty of vegetarian options, fun cocktails, great service. Go here.

We arrived…read morethere like 5 minutes before they closed, and everything looked great so I wound up buying two giant sea salt/chocolate chip cookies, a kitchen sink cookie, a sprinkle cookie, and a small yellow/vanilla cake with chocolate frosting. I regret not taking better photos, but at least I got a quick shot of the delightful cake. It was all absurdly good. I can't get over how fluffy the frosting is and how perfect the cookie textures are. The woman working was also really nice and, despite it being the end of the day, I didn't feel at all rushed or like she just wanted to close up. Here's how much we loved it: My husband and I went there yesterday while on a weekend trip. Today, we had to get back home fast to beat the snowstorm, and we seriously considered just risking it and driving out of our way to go back here. We didn't (safety first, etc) but we've decided to order our wedding cake from this place *and* our wedding favors. Seriously, everyone should go to this place.

What I tried: -A bagel with cream cheese, cukes and roasted tomatoes. Simple and delicious, and of course the bagel was fluffy perfection. - A cold sandwich from the case. This was French style with buttered bread, salami, cheese, mustard and cornichons. Every bite was better than the next! -A sourdough loaf to take home.

From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel so welcome, ushering us to an awesome table on their inviting patio so we could dine with our dog. The service only got better from there. Our server, Grace, was phenomenal. We were debating between small and large plates and asked for her advice on portions. Usually, servers just push you to order more, leading to a table full of wasted food. Grace did the exact opposite--she guided us perfectly and honestly advised against adding another side dish. She was 100% right on the mark. Thank you. Absolutely every single dish was a "wow"--piping hot, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor: ----Tteok Bokki ($18): I had seen this on many Korean menus and this was my first time trying Korean rice cakes, and I'm so glad I did. A wonderfully spicy, cheesy, chewy combo with melted raclette. --Crispy Wild Shrimp & Shishito ($24): Another spicy, delectable hit with a great sweet-and-savory balance. --Moo Shu Mushroom & Vegetables ($30): Delicious and fresh--the perfect mild counterpoint to the heavier, spicy dishes. --Crispy Panko Chicken Katsu ($32): We're still talking about how incredible this was. Definitely on the higher end price-wise, but given the stellar food, ambiance, and great service, well worth it. If we lived locally, Goodnight would be on our regular rotation.

The flavors throughout this meal were well developed and delicious. The Tteok Bokki was so special and cheesy and delicious. Almost like a chewy rice noodle Asian Mac and cheese vibe. The wild shrimp dish was great. The components were all great, what was super surprising was how amazing the shishito peppers were. It was the best bite of that dish, which is saying a lot. The mains were equally as good. The flavors were all there. The steak was tender and delicious. The bibimbap was so good. We happily took home our leftovers. Overall, it was a great experience.
