Growing up in Calgary, it was only on special occasions that we bought a box of Bernard Callebaut…read moreChocolates. The shiny copper box is unmistakable and always manages to give me the same giddy excitement I had as a kid. Now as an adult, anytime I am in town to visit family I make a point of stopping by the specific location. Primarily because this is or once was the flagship store (the arched windows remind me of a Willy wonka sort of nostalgia). But mostly because the chocolates always seem to be the freshest as this location versus others I have visited in the past. And while Bernard Callebaut chocolates are most certainly a splurge, they are worth every penny if you ask me. Since this is a rare occasion for me, I get a bigger box but not so big that it's obnoxiously embarrassing. I'm not sure what's worse, that or the fact that I don't even share them with my husband. Some of the best chocolates are: strawberry (made from real strawberries), Honey, coconut, caramel....whatever your choice- you can't go wrong. But I do not at all like the new Cococo chocolates, but perhaps you should buy just one so you can compare against the Bernard Callebaut chocolates to see what I'm talking about. Not all chocolate is created equal.

Our first stop last year was back in October during a culinary treasure hunt we participated in. Once we completed our task we were given a complimentary sample of a Habanero Sea Salt Milk Chocolate Bar to take with us. OMG it was drop dead delicious. Our next stop came in December when my in-laws (who were in town visiting) wanted to pick up some special chocolate to bring home after Christmas. We brought them here. This time we got to sample the Silver Award Winning Milk Chocolate bar flavoured with Rosemary, Thyme and Habanero Sea Salt. It is fabulous and obvious why it's a silver award winner. This place offers chocolate factory tours and this is definitely on our list of things to do...that and well come back and try some more yummy chocolate.

Heidi, from Epiphanie, answered my request expeditiously and said 'Yes, it was possible to have the gift delivered the next morning'. She even let me include a custom note and hand-pick which chocolates would be included.

I remember a time when Epiphanie didn't exist in the lovely little strip that is 11th St. I also remember the day I saw brown paper in the windows and a sign that said "chocolate store-coming soon." And then, the memorable day when the brown wrapping was taking down and I could peer in the windows on my way to work before it was open, and peer in the windows again on my way home from work after it was closed. I made it in on a lunch hour once and managed a sample. This time around, I came out with a little box of four chocolates. I'm scared what the next time will bring. With so many delightfully decorated chocolates and ingredients mixed in to many different chocolates like mint, honey, ginger, passion fruit and the likes, I simply cannot resist. I'm going back to try the hot chocolate (and the guitar with pop rocks in it that Crystal H mentioned). Idea: buy your Christmas chocolates here. I'll bet your recipients haven't had this chocolate yet.

The chocolate is smooth and creamy, sweet without being overly sweet and not one ounce of bitterness. Hubby likes the white chocolate to switch is up as well as the rice crisp chocolate bars. The deal for 3 bars at $4.99 is fantastic. Mix and match. Great seasonal items can be found in an organized way and not once have I found something I wanted out of stock. Staff are generally friendly enough and some days there are samples but you have to ask for them at times when you see the platter hiding on the back shelf. The location is great, inside Market Mall within the food court.

I couldn't get enough of it, and as a result, my waistline was left paying the price. Despite the fact that I'm stuck working double-time to make up for all the extra indulging I did this month, I have to tell you - Purdy's chocolates is THE best Easter chocolate around. Whether you like milk, dark or white - they've got it all, and it's DAMN GOOD. Plus they sell chocolate bunnies, chocolate eggs, and other fun chocolate creatures. Don't even get me started on their $500 GIANT chocolate bunny. All I need is one night...just lock me in and lose the keys.

Do yourself the best favour and give into the candy. Let yourself be taken over by the bright, magical colours of Gummi Boutique. The feeling I get when I walk into Gummi Boutique is way better than a kid in a candy store. I'm and ADULT in a candy store! I can buy all the candy I want and nobody's gonna stop me!!! :D They've got a cool selection of eclectic Candies from all over the world. Plenty of Japanese candy (by far the most adorable packaging the world has ever seen), all the way to European import bars from chocolate giants like Cadbury! Did you know that Euro Cadbury is created with a higher percentage of cocoa and doesn't use high fructose corn syrup like the American versions do? Did you also know that might be entirely incorrect because because I was so high on excitement thinking about the sugar rush that would soon follow to even think to listen to anything the insanely knowledgeable dude working there was telling me. I don't remember, but the fact is that HE does and there IS a difference. You should talk to the people in this store because they're awesome. Think about this for a second, friends - their job is to hang out with and be the city's experts in CANDY. How crazy cool is that?! Gummi Boutique ups the "What?! I had no idea you could get that here!" anti to unbelievable new levels. They've probably heard of it. They've got some fun, gimmicky stuff like lollipops with ants and a good assortment of strange soda flavours like Bacon or Peanut Butter. Neither of which I found that enjoyable... But I'm not sure what I expected. While they've got gimmicky stuff they're by no means all about it. You can find some fantastic candy in this store all with these incredible throwbacks to that time you lived in Germany, or your best friend in Australia used to get these things. Cherry Coke, Vanilla Coke, All the Coke...-a-cola, they've got it! And DUDES, you know I'm talking to you. Set yourself apart from the pack and work a visit to Gummi Boutique into your date night. It's far too enjoyable experience to not share with someone. Everyone goes out to the movies, but not everyone stops by Gummi Boutique first to hand pick the coolest bulk candy on the planet.
