A waste of money. Tastes as though it is made with low quality ingredients at exuberant prices. I'd rather have a Hershey bar, as it would be more palatable.

I hate to do this but I have to warn others. I am not sure what has happened to this place but the chocolate has gone down hill significantly.I used to come in once a month with my fiance and buy some truffles. They had these peanut butter truffles that tasted like Reeses but better! Tried a chocolate bar and was not impressed. Have not tried their chocolate covered nuts.They closed down for a while over the winter. When they opened back up my fiance and I were super excited. Went in to only find out that they were focusing only on nuts and bars. Decided to go in and check it out about a month after my first since they re-opened and they started to have truffles again. Saw they had the peanut butter truffles again and had to have them. Whoa, its like they had no idea what they were doing this time. Absolutely awful!! 3 of them were so soft I wouldnt eat them. I cant even begin to explain how terrible and awful this chocolate is.I wanted to support a local establishment with friendly local owners. But this place is so bad I just cant spend another dollar here.

Chocolate made from the actual cocoa beans another world in taste texture quality we regretted not purchasing more but we will definitely be back Thank You for creating delicacy's such as this! Thank You!

Went to buy plain dark chocolate today with my visiting adult daughter, and was told by the disinterested and aloof sales girl that they had none. Further item inquires brought more unsatisfactory communication, then a price tag of $22 for a small piece of chocolate peanut bark, and two truffles. Never will shop there again, and will urge friends not to as well.Now the worst part is that the Truffles in particular were old, and tasted that way. Bark mediocre … don’t go there !!!

Maggots. For real. We were so excited to have some yummy chocolate today after a nice day trip to Santa Fe. Unfortunately after purchasing about $50 worth, heading back to Albuquerque, & tasting several bites, we discovered one of the bars actually had maggots in it!! Yes, living creatures which looked like they had hatched out of the interesting bubble design the bars have…. I’m traumatized.The salesperson, however, was sweet and appropriately horrified.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! Me and my husband stopped by here this weekend. We love supporting local businesses and thought we’d give it a try. We didn’t see any prices listed but how pricey could chocolate be? We got one white chocolate cranberry bar, one white chocolate gummy bear bar and a small box of chocolate covered espresso beans which to our surprise came out to $68. So we expected it to be amazing chocolate and for that price we half expected it to make us float or have some everlasting gobbstopper effect. Instead we were disappointed to find that the white chocolate had a waxy taste and was way too similar to candy melts. When we called to complain we were told they could give us a 20% refund. The way the lady on the phone replied made it seem like she’s had this conversation one too many times and after when I took a look at the reviews I realized that she had. Save your money and go next door for your sweet tooth fix.

Absolutly delicious chocolate!!! Lots of kinds of chocolate & chocolate products, including mocha and specialty coffee drinks made with their chocolate. They make their own chocolate starting with the bean to the finished product. Estrella is very knowledgeable & friendly. Wonderful small, local family business. Satisfy your chocolate cravings here!!!

Underwhelmingly bland and expensive :( truffle prices were not advertised but turned out to be $4-5 apiece, which like, why. No recommended items here.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE save your money and walk away immediately. This not chocolate it's some monstrocity they cooked up. I really do try to support small businesses but if you don't know how to make chocolate don't. ON TOP of that they prices are $$$$$$. a tiny bag of chocolate for $26 and they don't even show or tell you the price until they ring it up. I was shocked at the price but I said ok what the heck this is all hand made and local business let's give them a boost in business. I walked out tasted the "chocolate" it is awful and that is an under statement. IF you don't believe me and you think I'm exaggerating then do yourself a favor and just buy a tiny bit and taste it before you waste any more of your money. BTW they don't let you taste without buying. That should tell you everything.
Omg! The Hot Chocolate ❤️I actually stumbled upon this place while exploring the city. I'm surprised to see the reviews. I'm glad I did not see it before going here. In all fairness, I did not try the other items and therefore I can vouch for the Hot Chocolate. Best I've had ?

If you are looking to get ripped off for chocolate, this is the place to go. There are no signs for pricing and my fiancée couldn’t even return a $17 chocolate bar that she had no idea was the price until the cashier took her card. The customer service is terrible and they don’t care about their customers. I will never come back and unsure how they are still in business. I could see if they were a name brand store but they rip people off

LOL these other reviews make me feel seen. 12 truffles and a chocolate bar for NINETY FOUR DOLLARS. The truffles tasted all the same, grainy and bland. The passion fruit chocolate bar was hard as a rock and tasted like a fluoride treatment from the dentist where they try to cover up chemical tastes with fake fruit flavors. How can you screw up chocolate so spectacularly???Conveniently didn’t get a receipt and they are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Can’t believe this place has been open as long as it has. All they need is one sucker a day I guess.Update: I called the business and they were willing to do an exchange but not a refund. I appreciate them being willing to work with me, and I understand it’s a small business, but a refund would be preferable to an exchange due to the quality issues. I will go from here and see what happens.

They are a rip off to buy chocolate from. They have no signs for pricing and a running a scam of a business. Do not go there. You are better off going to a drug store for candy. They ripped my fiancée and I off for $16 for just a candy bar. Avoid at all costs

Do yourself a favor and DO NOT GO!!!! Horrible disgusting chocolate. Overpriced and biggest waste of money!!! ? I was told the “cookie is soft.” It wasn’t! It was hard as a rock. Shame on the girl working yesterday afternoon and straight up lying to my face!!!!
