Crema's Take
“This handmade chocolate and confections shop in Ventura is a sensory sanctuary where the moment you step inside, the intoxicating aroma of quality chocolate envelops you like a warm embrace. Every truffle and bonbon is crafted as edible art, from champagne-infused varieties to adventurous flavors like Mexican chocolate ice cream with a subtle kick, all backed by genuinely attentive staff who invite you to explore and sample freely. It's the kind of beautiful, intimate space that rewards lingering over coffee and conversation, whether you're treating yourself or searching for that perfect gift.”

As soon as I walked into the beautiful shop the delightful smell of chocolate hit me. These handmade chocolates are like pieces of art. Not only are they gorgeous, they are delicious! The unique flavors change with the seasons. A box of Ex Votos are the perfect treat or a gift.
I absolutely love this little chocolate shop! The chocolate is very high quality and all handmade. The champagne truffles are divine and make amazing gifts along with all of their other beautifully hand decorated chocolates. My absolute favorite item though are the salted caramel turtles. They are absolutely life changing! They also have delicious small batch ice cream and specialty coffees which are always yummy. They recently offered Dubai strawberry cups on special Saturdays and they were fantastic. So decadent and delicious. There is plenty of parking in the lot behind the shop.
Haven't had a chance to try these beautiful chocolates yet, but the scent in the store is heavenly and the service may be even better. The chocolates themselves are stunning, attention to detail is obviously important here. I recommend getting a box for someone special and a 2nd to keep. Update: The chocolates are excellent! I loved them and I also got them to give as gifts which made me very popular!
Excellent costumer service. Staff greeted us. As we were looking around, being our first time there, staff let us know that we can sample the ice cream if we liked. She was helpful by telling us, what costumers liked and her favorite ice cream was. Chocolate are good. I can taste the flavor. Definitely coming back for more.
Great Experience!! The Mexican Chocolate ice cream was delicious with a little kick to it. Every flavor of ice cream is worth exploring as well as the artisian chocolates..Delicious.
