Chocolatier Erica — Local services in Tokyo

Bought and tasted the chocolates. The taste is okay, nothing special I guess. I don’t know why people making a big deal out of it. I came here because of curiosity. It’s too far to just buy a chocolate, where you can get better kinds around the area. I guess too far from Setagaya, Omotesando to ride a train all the way to this place plus the walk is far from the station too.. just to get a chocolate when the taste is regular. Maybe better yet get somewhere else. Its a small shop. Well its cute.. cool blue like the Tiffany color, few tables for cafe.. nice wrappers.. the price for small bar is about 1300-1500 about 230gms.. the bigger bar cost like 2800-3000 that weights 600gms..I guess everyone has a different taste buds.. its just my opinion.. u could try...

This chocolate shop is located on Platinum Dori (Shirokane-dai) amongst other high-end boutiques. The bright white, clean decor gives the space a sleek, posh vibe, and the indoor dining area makes it a great spot for a date or post-lunch dessert.

I purchased a pack of four truffles for about JPY 800. They were rich but well-balanced, avoiding being overly sweet, with a medium-hard chocolate shell and a creamy, soft interior. The cherry chocolates (wrapped in copper foil) have a much stronger and more apparent alcohol content. These chocolates make for an excellent gift, but a word of caution: even in early autumn (around 26∘C), the chocolates started to melt slightly. I suggest keeping them refrigerated and pulling them out about an hour...

Having lived with my Japanese wife in France for many years we have been accustomed to great French/Belgian chocolates. We received the bar as a present. Our conclusion was that it was so milky and so sweet that it completely masked the walnut flavour. Basically, it tasted no better that ordinary mass produced comercial chocolates. But if you like sugar then you may appreciate the style. Perhaps the shop could make a dark chocolate bar to satisfy more discerning...
