What People Are Saying About Chuao Chocolatier

The Editor

In Short – Traditional French techniques and the finest quality cacao beans from South America are the main ingredients in these hand crafted sweets. Guests are welcomed by an expansive display counter of milk and dark chocolate bon bons and truffles, complete with descriptions and knowledgeable staff. Among several lines of products are chocolate bars, dipped fruit and snacks such as spiced macadamia nuts. Hot chocolate is a favorite with a kick of South American spice. – –

The most amazing hot chocolate you'll ever experience

by cythiawilson

Try the spicy hot chocolate. It is in an entirely different class from the usual mexican hot chocolate with cinnamon. You'll be hooked!

Pros: Yummy chocolate

Best Dessert

by munchout

Because of the name the chocolates always upstage the desserts but Chuao has got the best desserts in the San Diego area. They have an in house pastry chef located at their Encinitas location who is dedicated only to making desserts. She can be found in the Encinitas Kitchen on weekdays and makes not only the usual selection of incredible desserts but will make custom items for special occasions and full on cakes for weddings and events. The Pastry Chef Tricia Cariffe and the Executive Chef/owner Michael Antonorsi can be found together teaching bon bon classes at their Carlsbad factory nearly every Wednesday night. No one else in town is more committed to teaching and breaking new ground in dessert items than these two..what a treat!
