What Our Customers Are Saying
Lovely little out of the way spot for sweet treats, from coffee to decadent chocolate truffles. I always stop anytime I'm in Bellingham, to help support local businesses. Staff is always friendly and helpful.
Lovely and delicious all the way around. The gelato is top notch (any flavors great, but the milk and dark chocolate and hazelnut flavors are delicious). Arrogate with the sipping chocolate is a nice treat.The chocolates are always fun to share with others as gifts
We go here for so much of our holiday chocolate needs! It's delicious stuff, they have everything from adorable classic molded shapes to truffles to single-source chocolate so you can taste all the regional flavors.
A hidden gem in Fairhaven districtRich and interesting selections of truffles include unusually good variety of liquor infused onesWe tried a dozen different flavors and the Nut Crunch is voted the best!Other flavors are all pretty tasty thoughI do wish the outer crust if those truffles was softer and smoother so that they would be more integrated as a wholeThere are also many novelty chocolates ( think hedgehog, Christmas train, snowman…etc) as well as single origin wafers on the shelvesDecor is warm and remind me of Tuscany style tasting roomsDid not try its gelatos and thus not able to comment on those
Five stars all around. Employees were extremely helpful, nice and friendly, and they wearing masks which I really appreciated.In addition to gelato, they had a large selection of fun sorbet flavors. I got the watermelon and grapefruit and both were flavorful, had a perfect consistency, and tasted just like their fruit counterparts. The watermelon was amazing.I also got some chocolate and the pieces I had were delicious, rich, fruity, and exquisite. Some of the best chocolate I’ve ever had literally and that’s saying something as I’ve traveled all over the world and even lived inBasically everything was fantastic.Tip: Free parking on the side of the building.
