Ridgewood Chocolate — Local services in New York

I passed by yesterday with my husband and sister, I honestly had no idea where we were going. When we walked in we were greeted by the owner. He educated us on how the chocolate is manufactured and kept in its purest form. We learned of all the health benefits and about how soluble the sugar within the chocolate is. Everyone was so warm and personable. We had some good laughs and truly enjoyed ourselves.

My sister grabbed the Nutmeg chocolate, my husband took the plain almomd, and I took the plan Tanzanian Chocolate. This morning we each took a piece. Quite the experience!!! My husband watched himself in a mirror as he consumed this pure delicious chocolate. His eyes literally dialted and were jumping! Such rich satisfaction.

We all recommend for you to try it. Such an experience. No nasty additives that America stuffs in our foods, just pure chocolate and happiness!

The amount of work that goes into creating their luxurious chocolate is more work than most people can handle. 2 days to hand create this, the quality and work match the price of the chocolate. I'm always astounded when people make something themselves and preserve such indigenous methods. Society today is to babied and catered to and lacks such work ethic. I truly appreciate that Angel who does this with her bare hands! I appreciate the owner as well for his charismatic ways and phenomenal story telling. I can imagine what its like to spend the holidays with him and hearing...

Constantine and Ruby are so gracious and amazing to spend time with at their shop. Their extensive chocolate selection will keep even the most picky chocolate connoisseur begging to have more. My favorites among the wide plethora that they let me sample were the garlic, cayenne, and ginger. I was so hoping that they had more menthol on hand, but they were out of samples. They said that menthol was by their most popular flavor. I definitely will have to come back here again and again. Their natural warmth, humor, and friendliness makes it a well rounded establishment. I wish I didn't live such a great distance from them because I would be there all the time and probably create a few cavities in the process. You can easily get wrapped up in conversation with the both of them and forget that you have other things to do afterwards. Please make an effort to give them a well deserved visit to satisfy the chocolate craving that most...

I came across this place while on my menstrual cycle, looking for a natural way to ease the discomfort — and I’m so glad I did.

This place is a hidden gem for true chocolate lovers. What makes it stand out is that they roast their own cacao beans — nothing processed, nothing artificial. Just pure, natural chocolate the way it’s meant to be. You can truly taste the difference. It’s rich, clean, and surprisingly gentle on the stomach.

Constantine (the owner) was incredibly kind and took the time to walk me through the entire process. You can tell he’s a real chocolate enthusiast — passionate, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to his craft. He doesn’t just make chocolate; he lives it.

If you’re looking for a chocolate experience that’s both delicious and authentic, this is the place. Highly...
