When I first learned about All Chocolate Kitchen, I had no concept of the breadth of sweet creations we would discover during our visit. When we first walked in, we took some time to amble about and soak in the temptations. Truffles, tarts, pies, rum balls, fudge, cheesecakes, croissants and so much more make decisions difficult!

There are also coffee concoctions, hot chocolate, teas, waffles, crepes, macarons, gelato and more. All Chocolate Kitchen truly invites a chocolate adventure!

| Even the gelato looks beautiful! |
In addition to the creations ready to eat, All Chocolate Kitchen is full of Chef Roby's chocolate sculptures. So, it is a chocolate museum of sorts! One of my favorites is "Randy the Blues Player" crafted from 925 lbs of chocolate. Wow!

Another incredible creation, the centerpiece tree which is 1,200 lbs of chocolate. The tree is truly magical.

For our treats, we settled on a mocha latte, pecan pie and grasshopper. I totally forgot to take a picture of my mocha latte. Crafted from Grand Cru chocolate, it was divine!

After savoring our treats, we wandered around again. Had to take a picture of me with Neil Armstrong!

Chef Alain Roby has truly created a wonderland! We enjoyed our chocolate adventure on a cold, winter day. The perfect excuse to go out! We did notice while there that the attached restaurant, Primo, has an afternoon tea. We are looking forward to trying that in the near future. I am sure it is a special treat!

It’s pretty incredible the kind of sculptures they can make with chocolate. That chocolate tree is so cool.
