253 Bleecker Street
(between Leroy Street
and Cornelia Street)
If you’re looking for unique, exceptional gifts for a
chocolate lover, you must go to Royce’ Chocolate. There are two other locations
in NYC, but the one in the West Village is the one I’m reviewing.
First, the shop is beautiful. It looks like a museum to
chocolates.
The chocolates also are temperature controlled!
The packaging is gorgeous, and they offer samples of their
famous nama chocolates (which are kept refrigerated and literally melt in your
mouth as if you were having mousse) as well as their chocolate-coated potato
chips (amazing!).
They also offer free gift-wrapping (at the time of my purchase,
they were offering a special Valentine’s Day wrapping).
The sea-salt, almond chocolate-covered popcorn ($13)
satisfied my craving for something sweet and something salty. I would have went
with the potato chips ($17), but thought in regards to quantity there would be
more to share per person with the family.
Cons:
It is important to know that their stock sells out quickly.
The first time I went, the store shelves were nearly empty.
Final Thoughts
Will definitely be a frequent return customer, but have to
time it to go when I know that they will be getting their monthly shipment.
