Chocolate and Love Cafe — Restaurant in Mississauga

While it's a beautiful café with a nice ambiance, and a nice place to chill/socialize, I'm not a big fan of the items I've tried or perhaps it's because I chose the wrong thing? I've personally tried items as take out before (mostly their savouries) and though they were good, I didn't feel like quality wise, it was up to my expectations since it just felt like one of those pastries you buy in bulk and heat up in the oven.

Anyway, decided to come back for a dine-in experience to try the desserts and hot chocolate. I was a fan of their hot chocolate and loved that I could customize it to my liking, by choosing the type of milk I want, chocolate (milk, dark, white), etc. However, I was not a fan of their crepe. The crepe itself was ok, but when choosing the toppings (another thing I like is that you get to choose your own toppings), I found that they've used canned or frozen mangoes? (I was expecting fresh mango). The cookie that was used was not fresh and was very hard, like grocery-store shelf quality cookie. Those were a big turn off for me personally and I was kind of disappointed as it ruined the overall taste of the dessert. Their ice cream that accompanied the crepe was good.

Due to my experience from takeout + dine in, I'd say though I'm a fan of the interiors and overall ambiance of this place, I'm extremely disappointed with the quality of items. The highlight was only the hot chocolate for me but it was not WOW, just an average OK (coming from someone who makes their own hot cocoa mix at home) nor was it served hot.

I was ok with the pricing point given the place has vegan options, is ethical and supports equitable trade relationships, however I didn't find that "fine organic ingredient" point in the quality of the items I've tried unless perhaps thats referring to their chocolate bars and chocolate items only?

I like that it's open...

What a great place to celebrate. It was my niece’s birthday so I treated her to a sumptuous hot chocolate and decadent dessert. Her dad wanted to tag along so there was the three of us.

We all ordered a different hot chocolate based on our taste. The small size (6 oz - $6.95) is made of dairy but you can have a milk alternative if you’re lactose intolerant. You can add extras ($1.50 each) like whipped cream, grated fresh ginger, coconut flakes, etc. My brother chose a Dark Chocolate 70% and my niece a Milk Chocolate 41%.

I have a special interest in chocolate so I wanted to try their Panama Dark 80% which won best food product in Denmark health food stores. I didn’t add any extras to mine as I really wanted to taste the chocolate. It was smooth and satisfying. It was served in a beautiful ceramic cup with a small piece one of their chocolates and was presented on a wooden board.

I shared the Cheeky Charred Cheesecake ($12.95) with my neice. It’s a Basque style cheesecake so it was luscious and creamy although a tad too sweet for me. My niece loved it. It was sprinkled with crunchy, toasted hazelnuts and drizzled with both dark and milk chocolate. A couple of orange slices accompanied it. All the flavours and textures worked together so well. It was a beautiful presentation from the plate it was on, to the gold cutlery, to the board it was served on.

The two hosts that were there that day gave us amazing service and the cafe itself with its comfy upholstered chairs, ambient lighting and background music made it a...

The cafe is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and has a positive vibe. The owner and the staff are very nice and deeply care about providing a great experience for the customers.

They offer great variety of chocolate-flavored desserts and beverages on top of other variety of cakes and desserts. And they offer Canada’sFirst organic and fair trade hot chocolate. Their menu includes gluten-free and vegan options as well.

Great location for picking up breakfast on your way to work during the week and have brunch on weekends. They’re also great for late night snacks as they’re open till midnight.

We ordered “Chocolate Bomb”, “Pistachio Ricotta Cake”, “Whole wheat Pancake with Dark & White Melted Chocolate, Chocolate Ice Cream, Almond, Strawberry & Banana”, “Fudge Brownie Sundae” and “Hot Chocolate Drink”. Everything was fresh and tasty. I liked that they offer whole wheat pancakes, I’ve been looking for them in every café I go and I’m happy that I’ve found a place that offers delicious and healthy pancakes. You can also customize everything on the menu, and add/remove topping or ingredients which I...
