She must have got it at a boutique in heaven" (Justin Timberlake) There's a plethora of pretty and beautiful things to choose from in this boutique. The Boutique Chocosina is in the heart of Old Montreal on Rue Saint-Sulpice. The gorgeous store is stocked with all types of chocolate, sweet treats, marshmallows, bars, gift baskets and gift boxes, bulk candy and pretty much whatever your sweet tooth desires. We picked up a small bar of salted caramel chocolate and a gorgeous chocolate bar with candied orange rind for us, and jars of caramel and chocolate covered marshmallows for the grandkids. Chocolate and orange combinations have long been a favorite of ours, and I gotta tell you, their version of this combo was fantastic. Delicious milk chocolate with a distinct undertone of orange. You'll find the store in Old Montreal on the corner of Rue Saint-Sulpice and Rue Saint-Paul Ouest just up the street from the Hotel Nelligan.

We went up and down the streets mostly window shopping, but we had to stop by this chocolate boutique. Inside, the shop is a sweet lover's dream. There were walls of colorful, bulk jellybeans in clear tubes, bins of sweet and tart gummies, and paint cans to be/filled with treats. On one wall, there were stacks of caramel pebbles, crunchy balls, and gummies. And by the door, there is an attractive display of sweet gifts. I went with the milk chocolate French bars. The chocolate was creamy, perfectly-tempered, and studded with milk, dark, and white chocolate pearls. I only purchased two bars but there is an online shop to indulge my sweet tooth for when I am done.

I've been to Montreal many times, and have walked around where this shop is, but never actually noticed Candylabs. I only discovered them when my brother and sister-in-law got me 2 packs of candies from them as part of my Christmas present. The candies they got me were so cute. They were shaped like little sushi rolls and even came with mini chopsticks, lol. The ones that looked like Futomaki were strawberry-kiwi flavour. The ones that looked like Salmon Maki were grapefruit flavoured. The candies were crunchy and really tasty! And so cute! In addition to their bricks and mortar store in Montreal, they sell their candies online as well, which is how my brother and sister-in-law bought them. I went to their website, and the candies are a bit pricey, like the sushi candy bags are $6.99 each. However, they are handmade and they source most of their ingredients from Canadian suppliers. Apparently they also make custom candies. Which I imagine would be great promotional materials for companies and also the cutest wedding favours for couples getting married. Looking forward to a time when I can go back to Montreal and go to the bricks and mortar store and check out their candies.

We walked in and noticed it was a local shop with beautiful selections of in-house made chocolates. Smelled delightful. The staff was helpful in explaining some of the questions we had about the chocolate bars.

As soon as you walk in, you're welcomed by the owner, who makes every single piece of chocolate in those glass cases by scratch. He's so humble and happy with what he does, you can really see it in the way he talks, which is what made our experience all that it was. A lot of the menu was in French, so he kindly explained to us what kind of ice cream he offered, and in all the ways you could order it. I went with the twist soft serve-which was so thick and creamy, almost like a custard. Delicious. I had it dipped in milk chocolate, which left me pleasantly surprised to find out the coating was so much thicker than other places who serve something similar. My friend got a sundae which I know he enjoyed because there was none left. The atmosphere, location, and overall experience will absolutely bring us back. A must-do if you're in this part of town!

While I was here, I visited Divine Chocolatier, Les Chocolats, and Chocobel which I can arguably say is my favorite out of the three. It's nothing against the other places but it's just a taste preference probably. If you love dark chocolate then Les Chocolats is definitely the one for you and Divine Chocolatier is definitely just as good but this place does offer more variety. The owners were really nice and put up with translating almost every single piece of chocolate for me as I picked up a few along with some Maple fudge. After sampling some, I can say I really enjoy the variety and quality of both the chocolate and the filling. However, this place was the only one out of the three that didn't offer me a little niblet with my purchase. Of course that's not going to deter me from loving this shop but it was a nice touch in the other two stores. Would definitely come back if I was up here again.

The owner is so friendly and welcoming, and her cupcakes are to die for! Moist and delectable cake, and the frosting comes in a variety of flavours, including chocolate chai, lemon coconut and vanilla. There is indeed an international flair (as one reviewer mentions) to these magical cupcakes. There are also birthday cakes, ie. larger versions of the same cupcake flavours. Sometimes, when you come, certain things might be sold out -- that's how popular and well-loved this place is! I've been a loyal customer over the years, and the quality and taste has been consistent, prices reasonable, and honestly, I'm so glad we have a cupcake shop of this caliber in our city (comparing this to NYC's cupcake shops, and I think the cupcakes here blow those out of the water). Highly recommend.
