- What Makes Us Different
- Our business began in 1996 as a small chocolate pop up shop. We travelled the world extensively seeking out good chocolate brands, and decided to hand make our chocolates here in New Zealand using Barry Callebaut chocolate from Belgium and fresh and local ingredients for the fillings. Pop in and try our handmade works of art!

Nice food and environment. Was a little bit surprised by the customers coming through. I had dressed up nice because the environment was nice, but most of the other customers were rough and a bit loud

A fabulous place for some chocolate treats but some really yummy smoothies and frappes too. We were a group of 12 and sat on the balcony. Service was smooth and all our selections were delicious. Totally agree about the Italian Denso...the spoon can stand upright in the cup!!!

We are regular at this little dessert cafe in Parnell. It is open till like 10pm daily so very convenient to visit after dinner. Dessert, ambience and gifts are of good quality ... getting a seat is often a mission at night but it is worth the wait. Worth the visit!
