Chocolatl — Attraction in San Antonio

WOW!!! I happened to stop by this chocolatier for some last minute Valentine's day gifts, and they are incredible! Alessia (the owner) immediately greeted me and helped me find a gift, and her cousin (whose name I didn't catch) let me sample truffles to help me decide. I ended up getting a big box of bonbons and an artisan chocolate bar, but I wanted to take the whole shop home!

The display case has some incredibly creative truffle flavors and designs, and the flavors do not disappoint. My favorite so far is pecan pie: it has a thin chocolate shell which has a nice snap when you bite into it, and a buttery pecan pie filling that tastes exactly like butterscotch caramel pie. Honestly some of the best chocolate I've ever had. Not to mention, each piece is designed beautifully. The case of truffles looks like a case of jewels!

We had 12 women and she made sure to include everyone while also giving us time and space to socialize. The space was lovely, the food was phenomenal, and the staff was so kind. I highly recommend scheduling a...
