This is a cozily tucked away gem on a street just off the main pedestrian area in Heidelberg…read more Walking into the store is liken to time traveling to the 19th century: it's super quaint and charming, shelves filled with so many varieties of artisan chocolates and tins of hot chocolate and coffee to purchase as gifts or for yourselves. We ordered the hot chocolate and chose to leave it au natural, versus add one of the many aromas and flavors they offer. The drink was rich, thick, and velvety. It's what hot chocolate is supposed to taste like. We savored every drop. Run, don't walk to this chocolate confection heaven. It's now a staple for every visit to Heidelberg.

Maybe he softened up that day! :) Anyway, when we visit Germany, we live in Karlsruhe with long time friends ( a 40 minute drive from The Zuckerladen) ... and it is always one of the very first stops we make after we arrive in Deutschland. The owner is a charming and eccentric soul... The Willy Wonka of Heidelberg, and the candy he has selected for his customers is out of this world - from the standard German Gummi bears, to extremely amazingly fine chocolate, and everything in-between. Its location is also delightfully charming- situated in a nice cozy little part of town. A MUST when you visit Heidelberg... for the chocolate, and everything else that comes along with it.

My favorite candy store in the whole world! Unique, with full service pick-n-mix, AKA bulk candy,…read morecandy creature creations, imported candies, even erotic chocolates, all housed in a tiny shop attended by mom and pop owners and their lovely daughter. Pretty much exactly the opposite of everything Dylan's, It'Sugar, Sugar Factory, etc. -- those stale chains and flagships. Such great warmth and charm. A Heidelberg highlight, and a must see when visiting!

So friendly and happy staff members behind the counter.

Drei Jahre lang betrieb sie die Chocolaterie & Pâtisserie in der Heidelberger Altstadt. Im Oktober 2013 schloss sie diesen Standort und bezog ein größeres Ladenlokal in HD-Neuenheim. Dort gibt es nun auch Sitzplätze, sodass ein Chocami-Café entstanden ist und unsere Gäste nun zu ihren Pralinen, Törtchen oder Kuchen auch ein Heißgetränk genießen können. Hinter der Ladentheke begrüßen Sie Giuseppe Infurna und Frederic Wagner. Isabelle Wagner steht weiterhin mit zwei Fachkräften in der Manufaktur und kreiert die süßen Leckereien, die Chocami auszeichnen.
