Chocolate cravings - satisfied! Finally got a chance to visit the store front last weekend. Let me…read moretell you - the smells that hit you once you open that door... I felt that is what Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory smelled like. I first tried Cleveland Chocolate Company after buying a bar from a place that stocked them in the Van Aken District. I loved them so much that I bought a bunch to send to friends and family as gifts. They have more than just chocolate bars and have limited quantities of more experimental-type bars. Can't wait to try all the ones we got (loving their single origin dark chocolate ones!).

Visited cause I remember they did a yelp event previously (which I didn't participate in). I was…read morecurious about their chocolates. I got their speculoos cookie and an almond dark chocolate. The almond was delicious. I wasn't happy with the speculoos. It had no taste, a weird texture to it and super dry. Everyone was friendly and helpful.

I stopped by Cleveland Whiskey for their Whiskey and Chocolate pairing event with Sweet Bean. I enjoyed myself. The pairings were great. I'm biased towards the Honey Penny and Lavender truffle combo but they were all delicious. Normally I'm not a fan of cordial-like truffles but the Luxardo truffle was so good. I'll be back for a box around Valentine's Day!

I would say the size was maybe 15x20 foot. But of course I didn't measure it. So who knows. I had the pleasure of talking to the owner of the shop. And he gave me more information about his family and business than I know I'll ever remember. But I did enjoy having that conversation. I will recommend this place to anyone I come across. It's a small business that has been around for a very long time. And they take pride in what they do.

Very quick and easy check out.

We stopped into Buckeye Chocolate Café in Bainbridge and were seriously impressed! This modern,…read morechic café has it all -- freshly made coffee creations, incredible house chocolates, and a full all-day breakfast and lunch menu that makes it hard to choose just one thing. It's also super convenient with a drive-thru, so whether you're grabbing coffee on the go or settling in, you're covered. Inside, there's plenty of seating and a warm, inviting atmosphere that's perfect for catching up with friends or getting a little work done. Here's what we tried: Orange Creamsicle Matcha - a fun, refreshing seasonal drink that's both creamy and bright. Strawberry Matcha - sweet, smooth, and perfectly balanced. Breakfast Burrito - hearty and satisfying with great flavor. Arugula Lemon Avocado Toast - fresh, zesty, and beautifully presented. Everything tasted amazing, the staff was friendly, and the vibe was just right. Whether you're stopping by for coffee, brunch, or dessert, this spot is an absolute gem. We'll definitely be back for the chocolates in the near future

Especially the seating area and ice cream shop decor. The store is filled with treats year round as well as seasonal specialties. It's been a great place to find some holiday treats. I have enjoyed most things that I have gotten there but the chocolate is a little too sweet in general. So, I will splurge on some single pieces from the case but some of the other things have not been as great. Notably, my chocolate dipped oreo was too sweet and buckeyes purchased as a gift received the same comment from someone pretty well versed in buckeye eating! So, that's why the limited stars. Service is usually pretty good at this location but it definitely feels more counter service and less gift shop-let us tell you what we have to offer kind of service....

I was looking for a bakery that makes Dobos Torte and came across Farkas Pastry Shop.

We also loved the poppyseed roll as well as the Tepertös Pogácsa. It was great talking with Mike while picking up my order. It was well worth the drive to Cleveland! Can't wait till my next visit to Farkas! Köszönöm Szépen!

We ordered the Napoleon, Amaretto Square, the Gerbaud, and Apple Linzer. The Napoleon was a 10 out of 10. We are one in the car and went back for more. The texture was great. Flaky, creamy, delicious. The Amaretto Square. Was good as well. Not too sweet, beautifully made. The Amaretto flavor wasn't as good as some others I've had. Maybe it's the type of flavoring/Amaretto used. The Gerbaud was definitely a crunchier dessert. Again made beautifully and has great flavor. The Apple Linzer. Another hit. The filling and Crust were perfect. Wouldn't change a thing. Service was great. Obviously this place has been around for a very long time. They know what they are doing. Only thing I would say is that it needs a facelift. Maybe not for locals but coming from out of town the look doesn't make you want to come in. Nor does the way the pastries are show cased. It just all feels run down. Not a place I would ever visit or offer good from ordinarily if I hadn't read such great reviews before going. We all eat with our eyes first.
