Nestled in the outskirts of downtown is this fragrant chocolate shoppe with a variety of sweets and other goods.
I loved walking in and being embraced by the smell of cocoa.
We bought some chocolate to send back home to Honduras (our family loves the bars)
The ice cream flavors change, stopping in to see what’s new is fun.
I definitely recommend trying their drinks too, the mocha was rich but a tad too sweet for my liking.
Also their hot chocolate is nothing to scoff at either. They also make hot chocolate the original way (with water) and chocolate from different regions of the world in the most historically-accurate way possible.
Escazu is just that. They work directly with cacao farmers in South America to source their chocolate AND make said chocolate in house!
They are always transparent with their process (which is much appreciated) and where the cacao is directly sourced from.
Also sells many made-in-NC products in shop too so you can support multiple local mom and pop shops in one place—and know exactly where your money goes!
If you have the means—SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS!!! They’re doing it the right way 🙂
Small talk wasn’t entertained and there was a sort of heightened stressful environment where customers (me anyway) were expected to show up knowing what they wanted and immediately order without conversation, pay, and leave.
I also ordered a coffee which was not great but not too bad, but it was filled too full and the lid leaked.
This place has been consistently amazing since day one. I feel it’s one of the few places that didn’t change in the five years I was gone, allowing me to feel like I was back home again!
I love their unique chocolate truffle flavors, their push pop ice creams, their coffee… everything! The shop items are really nice as well, and a good place to get something local as a gift for someone…or even yourself 🙂
My only wish is that they had indoor seating, but the space is unfortunately a bit small to provide that, but as long as the weather holds, it’s such a great stop if you live here in Raleigh, or you’re just visiting 🙂
