The truffles are delicious! And incredibly (truly hard to believe) are both vegan and gluten-free! I honestly couldn't tell. I asked how long they last and was told "Best fresh within 3 weeks. Keeping them in fridge will prolong freshness as well. The truffles will be good for months if no nut butters are added, texture will only begin to be compromised." Great customer service from a local small biz. Both boxes have beautiful wrappers and would make such a nice gift if I didn't eat them all already :)

I appreciated the prompt communication from the business when I requested pickup a bit early. I wasn't able to make it during their business hours, but let them know a courier would arrive to do so on my behalf. They immediately let me know when the order was picked up, and even sent a nice thank you. The chocolates themselves were beautiful. We purchased a larger assortment, and I loved the creative flavor options and wide variety of flavors to fit every palate. Our gift recipients gave them rave reviews. Supporting a local artisanal maker is worth the additional cost to me, and knowing the assortment was something that couldn't be found in a Godiva box made it all the more special & unique. We will absolutely be back as these chocolates make unique and delicious gifts.

WOW! I drove from Los Angeles to try these chocolates and…read moreit was 100% worth it. These chocolates are perfect, not too sweet, melt in my mouth, beautiful presentation and reasonably priced. These chocolates are very high quality and I now have a reason to come back to Scottsdale. The mug is so nice, very high quality. I bought 2 boxes and loved every piece. They are better than most chocolates I buy in Beverly Hills. I'm so happy Zak makes such high quality chocolates. This was the highlight of my trip.

I have been wanting to come here to see for myself if the goods are worth it, and they most definitely are!! There's seating indoors, but not a lot of tables, so you may have to just take your order to go. The line was moving pretty fast and we came around 11 in hopes that we would catch the special collaboration sandwich made possible by Loco Style Grindz and J.L. Patisserie. Thank you, Instagram for the heads up on the collab! We were so relieved to see there were 2 left when we got there. The employee asked if we wanted them heated up, and we said yes please! Of course, I had to grab some sweets for later and my friend chose the Lemon Meringue Pie for her birthday treat. I like the packaging and that there are multiple staff members to assist with checking out customers. We thoroughly enJOYed the sandwiches and the amount of pork in them was filling! They weren't stingy, and they were packing that smokey flavor! The sandwich kept me full for hours! Our drinks were refreshing and had just the right amount of sweetness! I love that they have a variety of baked goods to choose from including various quiches, muffins and specialty items. The air conditioning may have been broken because it was pretty warm inside. The tables are a tad small for two people, but we made it work. I will definitely return soon. The ambiance is super casual and prices are average. You will get your money's worth, that's for sure!

At first we were the only ones waiting but more people showed up closer to opening. There were about 10 people when they opened but they got through the line quickly! The cherry chai was so good; I have to go back JUST for that. I wish I had gotten the larger size. The pastries were to die for, I got the almond croissant, morning bun, chocolate croissant and medialuna. Favorite was the morning bun! The store was cute and had some nice seating inside and outside. The couch is a vibe.

Damn, their caramel apples are something else. I got the Cheesecake Caramel Apple to share with my…read moreboyfriend, and it was so satisfying. It's a Granny Smith dipped in caramel, sugar, and graham crackers. I wouldn't go crazy because each one is 480 calories and 40 grams of carbs (yes, I'm that person who investigates!). But it's worth indulging in once! There is very little seating outside the store, and the service was good, standard mall service.

**July 2026: Thursday Afternoon Visit**…read more My friend and I were visiting Phoenix during a 110-degree heat wave and desperately needed something to cool us down, so I went searching and came across Sphinx Date Co Palm & Pantry. The date milkshake sounded too good to pass up, so my friend and I made the drive out to Scottsdale for a little afternoon treat--and it was absolutely worth it. As soon as we walked in, the shop owner was incredibly warm and welcoming. She offered us a sample of a Medjool date, and wow--it was plump, rich, and had this deep caramel-like sweetness that instantly sold me. You can really taste the quality. We each ordered a large date milkshake, and it was everything I hoped for. It tasted clean and simple in the best way--like it's made with just dates, milk, and ice cream (which is typically what a classic date shake includes). It was creamy, naturally sweet, and super refreshing in the Arizona heat. I also loved that the store carries a variety of Arizona-made local products, which made souvenir shopping so easy. They had everything from BBQ sauce and hot sauce to wines and cactus candy. I ended up picking up a few sauces and some jumbo Medjool dates to bring home as gifts. The owner also shared that they carry different types of dates depending on the season. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their Sphinx dates, which she described as having a thinner skin and a more honey-like flavor--apparently available in late summer. Overall, I really loved this shop, its mission, and the quality of its products. This is definitely a spot you'll want to bookmark for your next Phoenix trip.

The two shops are joint and definitely scream luxe in every way. A super modern and beautiful space with all the designer puns and cute offerings from trinkets, to clothes, house goods and of course ice cream bars. They offer chocolate ice cream, vanilla ice cream, cheesecake or a banana for dipping. You can build your own or select one of their speciality bars - both coming in around $9. I opted for the Neverfull of nuts. A vanilla ice cream base, dipped in chocolate, rolled with peanuts, a Reese's and Nutella drizzle. It was very good and definitely enjoyed during the beautiful sunny day in Old Town. The service was great, friendly, quick and helpful with suggestions. My grandparents who were visiting from out of town, loved it. Overall, it was a delicious treat, beautiful store and hit the spot. I do feel the price point is a tad steep and they didn't have any children of small offerings, but I suppose that goes hand in hand with the luxe vibe. I would definitely return, but also a few other local spots that equally hit the mark.

You can get two toppings and a drizzle, but I'm glad I just got the chocolate cake. It was AMAZING. I loved everything about it. My husband got the March Madness feature, which was a combo of Oreos and Andes mints with whipped cream and chocolate sauce. You can choose chocolate or vanilla ice cream - he chose chocolate. It was exactly what he wanted. The staff were so friendly and patient with everyone in front of us who took awhile to decide. The shop is pristinely clean as well!
