Mondel Chocolates — Local services in New York

I define a 5 star place by the fact that if you are in the area you have to go. That is exactly what Mondel is. If I am in the area I stop by because the chocolates are some of the best I have had. You can tell this place takes pride in what they do and I love it. The pecan clusters are legit and so are the assorted caramels. The almond bark always gets me too or I go with simple break-up chocolate. I like getting the box of chocolate with a whole bunch of stuff. Highly recommend....

Old world quality chocolates. Sold by weight, price ranges from just over 20-30 dollars a pound. Lovely gift tins, gift bags and old school ribbon wrapping. Not cheap, but the quality is worth every penny. Love the extra bittersweet chunks, the cocoa covered almonds and the chocolate espresso beans. Great holiday selection too, including pre packed gift boxes. No nonsense, efficient service from older couple who run the store. Cash only unless you spend more...
