The Best Chocolate in Town

The Best Chocolate in Town is what we promise you at the 2011 Chocolate Fest, the only place in Indiana where you can find an abundance of the most scrumptious chocolates and chocolate desserts around.

BUT it is also the name of one of our favorite specialty chocolate companies. The Best Chocolate in Town has been a part of our Chocolate Fest for almost ten years and has always brought amazing, crowd-pleasing treats.

Yesterday, we took a stroll down to Mass Ave to stop by their shop and pickup some yummy morsels for an in-house taste test.

Self-proclaimed chocolate-experts, the YA staff sampled over a dozen different truffles, claiming each was better than the last.The following are our humble thoughts and opinions:



Asian Spice-This chocolate's unique taste made us want to get out our chopsticks and dig in.

Champagne- This chocolate is as decadent as a bottle of bubbly!

Cinnamon Basil- With its delicate flavor, this chocolate is light and pleasantly sweet.

Cranberry Orange Cinnamon- This chocolate's strong flavor is perfect for fruit lovers.

Fiery Pepper-Sprinkled with a light dusting of paprika, this chocolate packs a punch with its rich, smokey taste.

French Vanilla- After trying so many exotic flavors, this chocolate was a subtle and sweet treat.

Ginger Wasabi- At first we were a little hesitant about this interesting flavor combination, but after one taste, we were pleasantly surprised. The dark chocolate is sweet and savory, with a pleasant note of subtle spice.

Key Lime-This chocolate tasted just like the real thing! Delicious!

Lemon Chiffon-(Staff Favorite) This creamy morsel was greeted with a chorus of delighted mmms and ahhs. Its rich flavor reminded our staff of warm summer days sipping cold glasses of lemonade.

Orange-(Staff Favorite)The citrus flavor blends sweetly with the dark chocolate for a fresh and summery treat.

Port wine and fig-(Staff Favorite) We loved this moist chocolate's complex, deep, and unique flavor!

Rosemary- This chocolate's warm taste reminded us of something straight out of the baker's oven.

Sun King Wee Mac - We love Sun King to begin with, so it stands to reason that we thought this scrumptious morsel was pretty awesome.


While we can't promise any of these flavors will be at our Chocolate Fest on September 15th, we can absolutely promise that whatever delights The Best Chocolate in Town brings they will be delicious.
