They have a pretty large shop, and it can get crowded depending on when you go in there. They usually have a lot of customers coming in and going. Their prices are a bit steep for my budget, but I'm not sure if that's because of the current state of the economy or if that's normal for them. I stopped by intending to purchase some chocolates for a friend who loves chocolate, but I just couldn't find anything in my budget. If you have the money, though, they are definitely a convenient one-stop shop for your chocolate needs! I can see the appeal and would encourage people to go in and browse. There might be something for you in there.

Stopped by Sugar & Salt RVA for a little afternoon pick me up sweet treat. I had just finished a…read moremeeting nearby and wanted to treat myself. I had been here once before and ordered my friend a birthday mini fruit tart and myself a cake. I remember wishing the cake was a bit more moist and curious to try other desserts. I'm so happy I returned. This time I ordered the turtle cheesecake slice and a passionfruit tart for myself. I devoured these sweets. They were so yummy. They have more of a takeout situation here, so I ordered my sweets to go and ate them at home. It's pretty tiny shop. I loved the cheesecake the most. The passionfruit tart was fun, although with passionfruit as the base flavor I wish there were more tropical topping and then maybe a plain custard one with the berries. It was still tasty. I'd recommend stopping by if you're in the area looking for some dessert.

The cake I had was a red velvet cake beautifully decorated, but a little heavy and sugary for me al thought I usually eat cake from asian bakeries. The toffee cookie was also amazing!

I'm definitely coming back for the passion fruit tart, the other tarts do not compare and i'm so so serious about it .....

I enjoy the salted caramel chocolate cake, but there is a plethora of treats to choose from and there's something for everybody from bars to cookies to cake and brownies. It's a whimsical spot, great for a cute little date or just a pick me up. I love the bubbles that they blow outside.

I love fudge, and when I saw that they had some kind of promotion going on (this was a bit ago -…read morejust now getting to writing a review!), I decided to stop by and get grab some sweet treats! They actually have a pretty spacious shop, but they didn't have a lot of their products on display when I came in. I did come in towards the end of the day, so that's probably why they didn't have much left! The staff that was there were friendly and answered any questions I had. I had ordered 1/2 pounds each of the chocolate, chocolate peanut butter and the chocolate English walnut fudge. I really liked the chocolate peanut butter fudge. I think it's my favorite. They're all pretty good, but the chocolate peanut butter fudge was my favorite. Their fudge pairs well with milk, if that's something you like! Again, it's a really sweet treat that I enjoyed and shared with some friends and coworkers.

Still rating 5 stars because I've had so many memories here! --------------------------------- Drinks: I usually get a cold brew or latte. The cold brew hits, especially after a nice long run around Carytown/grove. Their lattes are alright, but not as good as some other places. The matcha is unfortunately not the best either, I think they use some type of sweetened powder as even the unsweetened is still sweet and the matcha flavor tastes burnt and not the best quality Also wish they had more seasonal drink options (other than the seasonal syrups) Recommendations: cold brew with splash of oat; pastries (macarons) Affordability: well priced (especially in this economy) Ambiance: cozy coffee shop vibes to hang out, not the best for studying/work Service: Great! they also have stamp cards Good for: post run coffee, coffee when you are not in a rush

I'm already excited for the next chance I'll get to visit again.
