    It is challenging to find coffee around 3 pm in Sedona that is not Starbucks. We found Living Chocolate and with a little creativity it worked. My husband had the Afternoon Loft on ice with a touch of chocolate and I had the Ecuador Creamy Cacaoffee on ice. Both were amazing in flavor, not too sweet and pleasurable to sip on. The staff were friendly and helpful. The shop is small but plenty of options to satisfy your chocolate craving. Pricey for coffee though.

    Snickers

    Popped in because I was intrigued at the healthy drink and treat options (no cane sugar in anything). We had the thick hot chocolate and snickers. Both were amazing. What a nice surprise to find quality, yummy treats that are also healthy. This will be one of our new go tos in Sedona!

    Chocolate pb heart after I took a bite

    Service was friendly. Gorgeous chocolates in display case, NO prices displayed. I asked the staff what the prices are, she responded "The prices are in my head." Then points to a round chocolate smaller than a golf ball, "These are $4.25 and prices go up from there." I purchased one chocolate PB heart about the size of a Reeces peanut butter cup, I think it was $6...I am sure it was made with quality ingredients. However the taste was average and I will not return here. There was another beautiful creation called snickers and was the size if a small brownie. She told me it was $11 for one. Seems unprofessional to not show prices and then charge exorbitant price for 1 small piece.

    This was such a quaint little chocolate shop with a very interesting shop owner. It seems to be a place with products that focused on wellness and natural healing. The shop owner (?) was very interesting and kind. They had an impressive display case of chocolates and a very unique beverages menu. My friend got one of their specialty chocolate truffles and I was craving a cold drink. Really enjoyed my very unique tasting ice chaga chai, a tea made of mushroom extract with rosemary and ginger honey.

    This spot is a must visit if in Sedona. We don't go out of our way to find chocolate without white sugar, but after this experience, I will seek more local chocolate stores and brands that are zero white sugar. Every variety we bought was amazing. My favorite was the dark chocolate with pomegranate. We were also offered free samples of the peanut butter. I should have bought it!!! Love the coziness of the store and seeing all it has to offer on the walls and on display.

    This unique spot of chocolate indulgence uses honey as their natural sweetener. Lovely, just lovely. They were patient and helpful in selecting the perfect pieces of chocolate and the ideal beverage. I chose the ceremonial (yummy) and my husband, the Ecuadorian creamy cacaoffee with almond milk, honey, espresso and coconut cream. This was my first time to experience such a delightful beverage con cacao! The confections had unique ingredients, to me. White with cardamom, clove and cinnamon (Christmas treat). This was a wonderful experience we will never forget in Sedona

    Balsamic truffle

    Balsamic truffle and thick hot chocolate are absolutely delicious! The lady at the counter in this cute chocolate "museum" cafe is very welcoming. Don't miss this cool spot if you're in the area. If you are looking for the usual super sweet no frills chocolate taste, don't waste your time and money here - Safeway is just around the corner.

    I live for chocolate! Living Chocolate is a wonderful shop in Sedona that specializes in all things chocolate, so of course we had to make our way here when we saw it while driving around town. It was the perfect treat post-hike. Living Chocolate is located along a major highway in Sedona and is situated in one of the many business strips around. We spotted it while driving to a trailhead from our lodging, so made a plan to check it out afterwards. We visited in the late afternoon on a Monday and the owner warmly greeted us. Although it's a small shop with just a few seats, it was a welcoming atmosphere. Living Chocolate had several different chocolate truffles in the display case, as well as chocolate goods for purchase, like bars, cacao beans, etc. They also had a drink menu, featuring many chocolate-y beverages and beyond. My partner ordered a classic drinking chocolate while I had an elixir, made with electrolytes and pomegranate. We also shared three truffles: turmeric pepper, dark chocolate nibs and espresso. All of our treats were delicious - and most importantly, we could easily tell the chocolate was made with simple, high-quality ingredients. In fact, I love that they do not use cane sugar here to sweeten the products; they use honey, which has a more natural taste and is better for you. I highly recommend visiting Living Chocolate if you're a chocoholic in Sedona. It's a wonderful business that sources cacao beans from many parts of the world, ensuring that what you're getting here is only the best, quality chocolate found. I wish there was a business like this around where I'm from.

    This is my go to morning drink!

    Living Chocolate in Sedona, Arizona is an absolute gem for all chocolate lovers! As someone who understands the medicinal values of raw chocolate and its superior antioxidant content, I can confidently say that this store is a haven for those seeking decadent and healthy treats. Personally, I am a huge fan of their Belize cacao paste, which I use to make my morning drink. Whisking it with a touch of honey or coconut sugar and adding my own adaptogens like Mucuna root , Maca or ashwaganda creates an energy drink that surpasses anything you can buy elsewhere. Not to mention, it is absolutely nutritious and delicious! One thing I highly recommend is trying their version of a snicker bar. It is packed with superfoods and contains nothing harmful for your body. It's a guilt-free indulgence that you won't regret. I feel for the prior persons post they do not understand this is HEATHY. chocolate not the sugar processed junk in a store... rather a super food! If you're visiting Sedona, Living Chocolate is a must-visit place. Their selection of raw chocolates and treats will leave you in awe. Trust me, you won't want to leave without trying their amazing creations. Highly, highly recommended!

    Soma formula, I loved having in my ceremonial cacao.
    Joy D.

    It was an amazing experience overall. From getting delicious chocolate pieces from their vast selection, and the ceremonial cacao drink itself. Thomas was more than a server but a great host of that small, cozy and beautiful cafe style chocolatery. His recommendation for add ons on my drink was spot on, that soma blend is magic. They have a small chocolate market inside worth getting more great cacao. The owner is such a gem, she opened 45 min earlier so I could get another ceremonial cacao to go at my departure day from Sedona - well I was lucky she was already at the store! I would have taken more pictures, but I was too busy enjoying the experience there.

They don't only have some of the most delicious, moist gluten-free 'bagels,' (which are more like whole wheat buns and are delicious, so good toasted or fresh) but they also fresh bake a ridiculously broad range of sweet cakes and pastries, including this divine peanut butter pie, which, straight out of the fridge tastes like creamed peanut butter fudge atop an almost chewy, lightly crunchy, chocolate biscuit base. They also make amazing cakes to order and carry great trail snacks like maple sweetened cookies and picnic favorites like their delicious vegan GF quiche (which even has my mum's stamp of approval and she is the quiche queen), Service is personal and friendly, there are seats there both indooor and out, but it's a very popular take out spot. Get there in the morning for the bagels, they have cakes and delicacies available all day long. This is a great 'small business' to support, we are lucky to have it in West Sedona. I absolutely LOVE this place.

Aside from the tea, they also sold all kinds of goodies--from traditional dresses to books to little trinkets--which I later found out that 70% of the products they sold here were handmade by their rural women & men. There was just so much to explore that my eyes and my heart were full and I haven't even had their teas yet. Another couple of things I found out later on while I indulged myself in more chai than I probably should have and scrolled through their website: (1) half of their profit goes to support women and children in Pakistan, and (2) this place is a "social-enterprise dedicated to peace-building and socio-economic empowerment of women and children in Pakistan." With that, truly, my heart and my belly could not be fuller and I'm so glad I made a point to visit this place at Tlaquepaque! There were some tables and chairs, as well as area rugs where groups sat crisscross applesauce, outside the store on the terrace since they're located on the second floor. They also had a few of these super charming balconies you can hang out and sip your drink at. If you're not in a rush, I think staying and having your tea there completes the whole experience. What we tried: Butter Chai - 5/5 Traditional Cardamom -4/5 Iced Black - 4/5 From the three drinks we got, my ultimate favorite was the Butter Chai. Apparently, they don't consider this as their best seller, but I have seen so many people rave about this particular drink and I couldn't be happier that I went for it. It was the perfect symphony of sweet and creamy with the spices not being too overwhelming. I didn't know that it came with some toppings of crushed pistachios too, but they make sure to ask if you're okay with that when you order. Overall, this one's quite a special place. If you get a chance to stroll around the Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village, I highly recommend you stop by here!

    I want to write this review in hopes of saving someone else from making the same mistake I did…read more I was incredibly excited to dine at Elote Café and managed to score a dinner reservation less than a week before my trip to Sedona, which is practically impossible if you've ever tried to get in. The anticipation was high, and unfortunately, the experience did not live up to the hype. For context, I'm from California and am accustomed to fresh, authentic Mexican food. To be fair, Elote Café does not claim to be authentic Mexican cuisine. If that's what you're looking for, this is not it. The menu leans much more toward a Tex-Mex/fusion style. Drinks The margaritas were fine. We requested Tajín rims, which they accommodated, but the presentation felt underwhelming for a restaurant of this reputation and price point. High-end cocktail programs typically include thoughtful touches--dried citrus, smoked cinnamon, herbs, or something that elevates the experience. These arrived as basic margaritas with salt and a lime wedge. Appetizers The complimentary chips and salsa were just okay. The salsa had an unexpected sweetness that didn't work for me. The famous Elote, however, absolutely deserves the praise. It was the best thing I ate all night--savory, balanced, and packed with flavor. Easily a 10/10. The guacamole was also excellent. No complaints there. Entrees The chicken enchiladas had flavorful chicken, but the green sauce was overwhelmingly tart and lacked the seasoning needed to balance that acidity. The shrimp and pork belly dish was disappointing. The pork belly was good, but there were only two very small pieces. The shrimp were underseasoned and lacked flavor. The carne asada was the biggest letdown of the night. It arrived covered in a red sauce that seemed to be attempting an enchilada-style sauce, topped with pickled onions and a slice of bleu cheese. While I appreciated the pickled onions, the bleu cheese felt like a strange addition to a carne asada dish. More importantly, despite being described as a prime cut skirt steak and cooked rare as requested, the meat was surprisingly tough. Rice&Beans The entrees came with rice and beans. The beans were acceptable, though nothing memorable. The rice, however, tasted like boxed or instant rice. At a restaurant where a dinner for four can easily approach $300, I expect better than something that tastes like it came from a pantry packet. It's a small detail, but details matter when a restaurant has built its reputation around being a must-visit dining destination. Dessert By this point we had no intention of ordering dessert, but we were celebrating a birthday and received a complimentary ice cream dessert. It was actually very good. The vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and caramel sauce all tasted house-made and had a rich dulce de leche flavor. Final Thoughts Our bill was nearly $300 for four people, and the overall experience simply wasn't worth the cost. Aside from the elote and guacamole, most dishes felt underseasoned, unbalanced, or failed to justify the restaurant's reputation. What puzzled me most was seeing several empty tables throughout service. Given how difficult reservations are to obtain, I expected the restaurant to be completely full. This is one of those restaurants where the hype far exceeds the reality. If you're worried about missing out, don't be. In my opinion, you're not.
