A Piece of Heaven!
This is the most delicious chocolate I have ever eaten in the US. I come from Spain, and when I moved to the US eight years ago I really missed being able to find good quality chocolate. This is as good if not better! Seriously, their flavour combinations are delicate and exquisite. I have
purchased several boxes either for myself or as gifts for my parents when they come visit us in the US. They absolutely love them too! Please keep up the amazing work! You guys are very very talented. Your chocolates are pieces of heaven!

Absolutely Divine
The chocolate dipped caramels were exquisite. The lemon and thyme made me feel like I was back on the Mediterranean, and the rose tasted like a sunset in Istanbul. There's a wide array of brilliantly matched flavors for whatever your tastes may be, and I enjoyed each and every one of them

Best Hot Chocolate I Have Ever Tasted This past weekend I tasted the Cuba Libre Molten Drinking Hot Chocolate and was amazed. I am not typically a hot chocolate fan as I think the taste is usually too sweet and gives me a headache. M. Cacao's hot chocolate is rich, silky and the taste is perfect. You can taste the chocolate rather than the
sweetness. I was amazed. I ordered some immediately and can't wait. I am a huge fan! I hope to sign up for classes soon.

Edible Art, Magnificent Taste After being gifted some of your chocolates for Easter, we had a Chef's Collection shipped to a dear friend for her birthday. Her reaction was the same as ours. These are little masterpieces! They'd be a stunning gift just to look at. But then you take one tiny nibble, then another, and OMG. The
flavors are exquisite! We ordered the Chef's Collection for her specifically because it includes two of each flavor. One is not enough with your amazing chocolates. Thank you thank you for bringing the very best chocolates to the U.S.

Total Decadence!As with all of your chocolates, the flavor is amazing and the quality of chocolate is amongst the best that I have ever tasted. You all take such pride in your chocolates, that it shines through and the flavors dance on my taste buds. The Molten Drinking Chocolate is INSANELY good and has ruined me for any other "hot chocolate" for life!

I Love This Chocolate!Not only do I love the chocolate blended with the candied citrus I couldn't stop eating it once I started but I love the unique art on the front of the bar.

Hands Down Best Chocolates Ever! I bought these as a gift for my fiance after seeing them featured on Brian Ambs' YouTube channel. They were meant to be a Christmas present but I got excited and opened them as soon as they arrived. The chef's collection was an incredible variety of exotic and delicious flavors. I almost wanted a pallet
cleanser between each piece so I could savor all the different flavors. The chile caramels were my fiances favorites. He LOVES spicy food and he loved each caramel but especially the Carolina reaper one. Words cannot do these confectionery masterpieces justice. They aren't just chocolates, they are a whole experience.

New Fromage Collection!This new collection starts with a beautiful design and then just keeps getting better! The mixture of cheese and fruit or other flavors is spot on. We were able to differentiate each flavor as described. There are wine pairing suggestions for each variety. Exquisite!

Best Chocolates EverM. Cacao chocolates have spoiled me - no other chocolates on the market come close. The richness of all the unique flavors comes through in every bite and lasts until the final morsels melt away. No overpowering sweetness - it does feel like you're eating food, not candy.
