Using cocoa beans from Belgium, the chocolatiers above this delightful shop in a 200-year-old house churn out tasty concoctions, including almond bark and flavored truffles. The various assortments come in beautifully colored little paper bags. There's a cozy little cafe attached that serves coffee, cakes, lunch and, in summer, ice cream.
