Their chocolates are first class! I am a bit of a chocolate snob and these are delicious! Started by buying and sampling a glassine 4 piece pack then decided to buy a 26 piece box and chocolate medallions. Superb! Wish they had a store closer. They said they do have an on-line shop.

Not only did the fudge pair well with the beer, but each one (tried 4) was delicious. They were all smooth, creamy, and not super rich. I like how creative the flavors are. Although I enjoyed all 4 pieces I tried, my favorite was a tie between the spicy mango and strawberry balsamic. Loved the slight heat the spicy mango gave, with the spice coming through right at the end of each bite. I thought the strawberry balsamic would be my least favorite, but it was so good. I liked how both had fruit pieces in them. I definitely plan to order more fudge from The Chocolatier's Palette in the near future. Be sure to check out their website periodically as the flavors change every 2-3 weeks. Local pickup (I believe near Grosvenor metro) or shipping is available.

The variety of flavors is mind boggling. I tasted the chocolate truffles and I was in heaven. Rich, soft, sweet, and creamy. The best part is that it is Gluten free, egg free, non dairy, and only sweetened with natural sugar. The flavors and colors are so amazing. They offer gift boxes, where you can customize the different kinds of fudge. They also have an assortment of gifts to grab and go. They had some jewelry and electric handheld massagers. Also, stuffed animals for the kids. Service was fabulous. I already know which flavors I am choosing for my Thanksgiving dinner hostess gift. Prices are reasonable, you can get an 8 pack for $16.00. I was so impressed with this new shop. Located in Montgomery Westfield Mall, they are a gem.

The ones made with liquor are especially tasty. We were welcomed and serviced with friendly staff.

But worth it, you can taste the quality in it. Do recommend @WineDinenVacay

Upon asking I was told that it was supplied by a local chocolatier right in town! Off I went in search of confectionary - and was rewarded with a feast for both eyes and palette! "Small shop-Big flavor" comes to mind - and this place brings it big. They offer both chocolate bars as well as bon-bons by the counter. They also sell tinned hot chocolate (so you can make it on your own), and pretty gift sets! I also learned that it is a 3 generation family owned shop - which makes it all the more special!

On the way to a friend's birthday party, (Apr 2026), inspiration struck: Bring classic Rheb's…read moreCandies' handmade chocolates! Hand-making chocolates since 1917, Rheb's is a 4th-generation family business, hidden on Bloomfield since 1950. It's just north of US-1 Wilkens Ave near Caton Ave, in a tiny little stand-alone building with a red tiled roof, a stone-like facade, and a hand-written red neon sign above the white corner-facing door. You'll walk in facing an L-shaped candy counter, with some Maryland-themed products and some pre-packaged treats along the other walls. Take a number by the door if there's a line. We waltzed right up to the counter at noon on a weekday :-) You can buy by-the-piece, or by-the-pound in various size boxes, pre-selected or chosen one or two at a time. We got a boxed half-pound for our friend, one of these, a few of those, plus a handful for ourselves :-), and some Maryland merch. They have so many varieties! We got milk-chocolate, dark-chocolate, white-chocolate. Nut clusters and turtles, chocolate-covered cherries, caramels, creams and buttercreams and truffles, and one "Birthday Cake" vanilla cream with multi-color candy sprinkles over a soft milk-chocolate shell. Each lovingly created original was fresh and more-than-delicious. Now, when you choose your own, you pay by weight, and our box was a little over the pre-made-half-pound $15.60. I promise you, it was worth every penny. (Remember pennies?) Our friend loved her wrapped birthday-box of Rheb's so much that she didnt share a one! She said she finished the half-pound in two days!!! I call that self-control. Our handful of singly selected candies barely made it to our home :-) You pay at the counter where you order. Rheb's Candies is open 9am-4:45pm, closed on Sundays, in the little building on Bloomfield that was originally half of the garage to their home! You can find a classic portrait photo of Louis and Esther Rheb to the left of the candy counter. There's only a handful of street parking spaces out front, but there's a little more about a block away in the neighborhood. Since Aug 2025, they have a storefront in Mt . Airy, too! Road trip!!! Oh, and they ship! But be careful about the temperature en route.

Pleasant ladies in their smocks taking orders. The ambiance fluctuates. During late spring and summer, it's usually pretty calm and you can walk in, grab a number, and be out with your box of goodies in a matter of minutes. During the fall and especially winter around the holidays, it can be hectic, chaotic, and crowded with folks spilling out of the door and having to endure long wait times, but, I have to say, it's worth it! The chocolates (you can choose from milk, dark,or white for some items) are fresh and made with quality ingredients that keeps folks coming year after year, including me! All in all, a family owned shop that has been around for years that produces some of the best chocolate candies in the Baltimore area. A must visit for anyone.

Finally I had a family emblem marking our 45th year immigrating to the US designed by my niece and Sarah was able to print onto the chocolate with couple of test trials. It was perfect. Printed 8 pieces for distribution. I had fun making my own chocolate flavor combination as well. Want a fun, interesting and yummy chocolates, this place is.

The typeface and imagination in the images were stellar, and it far exceeded what I had anticipated! The whole experience was stupendous, and I can't say enough good things about them. In addition, considering how specialized this service is, the prices were extremely reasonable (shockingly so). If you are in the DMV, find the time to go out there and pick it up - this is much wiser than entrusting their creations to delivery drivers. As someone who has been trying European chocolate from many countries since the 70's, I was also surprised that the taste was very good (not cloying or sickly sweet), since most chocolatiers in America - even with European source materials - can be imaginative with the fillings but put out an atrocious product. That was a "bonus". I will definitely 100% contact Chouquette in the future. Thx!!! Marc
