The best chocolates in DFW. It’s my go-to whenever I’m in the area or when I want to get a gift for someone. I highly recommend getting their truffles. They have a wide variety available to choose from in different size boxes. I love getting the six piece truffle box and choosing my favorite flavors while adding a new one here and there. Especially to try their seasonal flavors. Recently it is their amarena cherry chocolate. Now my ABSOLUTE favorite. (If you’re reading this, please keep this flavor forever.) If you don’t know where to start talk to the staff for help, they’re ready to listen & help! (But I highly recommend the Orange Slice, Strawberry Passion Fruit, Blood Orange, French Lavender, Mexican Vanilla, Honeydew Melon ;) There’s also more chocolates to choose from like their bark and seasonal chocolates for the holidays. Like pictured here rabbits, eggs, tulips for spring and Easter.
I admire how they are a family and women owned small business since 2019 and the staff is kind, helpful, and full of joy! Go out to support!
Cocoandre is currently located in Olmo in Elmwood. If it’s a drive, just get it shipped, that’s also an option. They are working on getting a bigger space, so make sure to follow them for updates!
Also if you care about the vibes of a place, then it’s a cozy vibe. Their stores feels like home where you can sit and have a chat with...

They put their focus into the flavor rather than wasting time on just looks. Which isn't to say they don't look good, they do, but look wise they aren't anything super special. But for me it's the taste that's important. They get that here unlike at other places. They also offer chocolate bars and other cute chocolate creations. It's in an old house in the Bishop Arts District that's just a little bit off of the main commercial area. Give this place a try and you...
Read moreWhat a disappointing experience. CoCoAndre is not what it was 10 years ago. Visiting their pop up spot from Oaxaca, México the home of cacao, where we have progressed in our studies to be able to distinguish the authenticity of cacao and chocolate making. We found that the quality of ingredients is of a lesser quality than what we remembered. The worst part of our experience, after making an $80+ dollar purchase on truffles was the unwelcoming & rude customer service. It doesn’t feel good to be stared at, gossiped about, and laughed at by the owner herself. Their mission statement claims chocolate is a unifier and creates an inclusive safe space for community to come together, unfortunately our experience was the complete opposite. I would no longer...
