Stopped in today to buy chocolates for a colleague. I had no clue what to purchase. I explained that she loves chocolates under 72%, & let me tell you... The service I received was the best I have ever experienced seriously. Top notch okay! I definitely will be going back again for myself. Thanks for all your help today, I am truly thankful. & thanks for my sample
Picked up a box of chocolates for a dinner party. I was helped by the most incredibly friendly and sweet man. Absolutely the best customer service I’ve had anywhere in ages. Wish I caught his name. You’ll definitely know him when you walk in - a big, warm welcome to all customers!
This is a great place to get fresh handmade chocolate. If only they had vegan options lol. My wife enjoyed it. Hopefully soon Vegan chocolate will be mines. Please Support this place.
My now favorite go-to chocolate spot. The handmade chocolates are delicious and like little pieces of art. Hopefully you get a chance to interact with Elle, one of the chocolatiers. Elle went above and beyond with the help I was looking for - patient in answering all my questions and did so in the friendliest manner. Even provided a couple samples to help in making my decisions. Highly recommend! Well worth the money!
I was just in the store recently and was helped by Crystal. She was absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable. She helped me in a timely fashion and I was in & out feeling confident that my order will be perfect.
Art in a box! Chic chocolates in a variety of flavors, aesthetically pleasing colors, and simply delectable handmade chocolates. Huge selection to choose from in the sweetest little candy boxes whether for a gift or a gift to yourself! A definite Birmingham gem and an absolute must stop. Guaranteed to make your day that much more enjoyable! ☺️
First time in this place today. It was wonderful. The owner was very courteous and knowledgeable. The staff was very helpful
Wow amazing chocolates and super friendly staff. They are open even during COVID and only allow so many people in at a time which is great
Very nice people and yummy chocolate will go back
Only recently we discovered Birmingham Chocolate. The best, I have encountered in my 10 years in Michigan. The chocolates reminded me of Melbournes Koko Black Chocolates. In Michigan, this is one of the very few chocolate shops I found, that makes real hot chocolate, and not the syrup hot chocolate . Superior chocolates, superior presentation, and superior service. The staff, every one, is super polite, and super patient.
Amazing chocolate and amazing people work here! Definitely worth the money for sure:) everything is tasty!
Wonderful artisan chocolates. All made in house. I love how hand crafted the pieces are with some even including small bits of caramel.
Best chocolate Ive ever had bar none. Great variety in their 24 piece. Very colorful, and even more flavorful.
It was fine.
This place has very delicious chocolate ! I loved it and now it’s the only place I buy chocolate from whenever I have a special occasion.
Terrific choices for dairy free chocolates.
Amazing chocolate and wonderful people, I cant wait until they offer classes again!
Excellent job and delicious! Ordered for my mom for her birthday and Thanksgiving and delivered perfectly on time!
Birmingham Chocolate has done so much for us Chocolate lovers in Michigan and around the country. They serve the best small batch chocolates using the best ingredients. 11 years and counting, I will be a faithful customer and supporter of all things chocolate made with LOVE
Endless selections with constant monthly additions to their menu. Not only are their chocolates delicious, but they are pretty to look at, almost too beautiful to eat. There’s been a different staff member working there every time I’ve come in and every time I’ve been greeted with friendly customer service. The hot chocolate is one of their hidden gems and is by far the best in metro Detroit. They’re doing everything right here. Would definitely recommend.
Wonderful, informed service. Im sure that my gourmet chocolate gifts will be loved fir their elegant presentation and deliciousness. Elle helped me shop and I had so much fun. I am also addicted to the hit chocolate there.
Amazing quality, friendly staff and locally owned. As soon as you step inside your senses are taken over by the awesomeness that is chocolate! Ordered some assortment boxes as a gift for some clients for the holidays and they did not disappoint! I received compliments as soon as the next day. Cant go wrong here.
Had been driving through Maple on Saturdays and Sundays mostly for the last 6 years. Very seldom. Today was the day I was lucky to get my foot inside. Got a sampling (free) worth feeding a whole platoon of hungry mercenaries coming from an overseas forgotten battle. Nevertheless i bought a couple extra squares to compensate. Now i can wait another 6 years to burn all those delicious calories. The point is, if you are going to overdo-it on indulge In style? you must do it here. Ask for Elle. Tip. They have plenty of rear parking to bring whole platoon with you. They also have coffee although i did not try that
Loved smelling the air... I felt my spirits being lifted by the elixir of sweetness, warmth, and the aroma. The art work is made from chocolate wrappers, an answer to one of my many questions to re-purposing. Consider the 2 hour uber-sweet tasting private event... Ill be back! #auric
Nice chocolate and coffee shop. Engaged service oriented staff-person (at least the one that served me), who ply you samples and freebies (they make the chocolate products right in the shop). Lots of gift options, fancy ganaches (soft centered) variations and delicate, pretty display chocolates in dark, vegan, milk chocolate and other options.Great hot chocolate w espresso,are from fresh chocolate
I will be back every time I visit in Michigan! I stopped in for the first time with my daughter and we met Adelle. She was charming! The yellow-topped, dark chocolate nonpareils are phenomenal! The quality of chocolate is unremarkable. Congratulations on a wonderful chocolate shop! So glad you provide shipping services as well!
I have been a chocolate lover all my life. I have been a devoted customer of Birmingham Chocolate about 9 years from the time the store was indowntown Birmingham, and then I followed them to their current location on Maple next to the Pharmacy. This establishment has the best chocolate I have ever eaten. I will never go back to any of the other brands. I recommend every one try Birmingham Chocolate😁 just once, you will be hooked.Thank you Doug!!!!! You are the best👏🙌😁🍫🍫🍫
Located just a few minutes outside of downtown Birmingham, best chocolate shop in town! Atmosphere of the store was very welcoming, with a lot of beautiful and delicious handmade chocolates to choose from. Highly recommended! I will definitely be back again :) Thank you!
They have the BEST handmade, homemade, fresh chocolates in the area....forget Godiva...will never go there again. I have purchased small boxes for friends and they all are hooked! Hot chocolate is amazing too and so many varieties!
Exceptional quality and creativity. My work clients love when we send them gifts from Birmingham Chocolate!
They have the best handmade, homemade, fresh chocolates in the area. I have purchased small boxes for friends and they all are hooked. Hot chocolate is amazing to and so many varieties.
Amazing hot chocolate from real melted chocolate and not powder or syrup. Unique and delicious flavor combinations. Heading back sooner than later
Absolutely delightful!
These were ordered online from their web site. Dont waste you money on these chocolates. Ive had better cheap chocolates from a department store. The pictures they have online are NOTHING LIKE WHAT YOU GET.They are also very small. I have had department store chocolates and amazing top of the line chocolates from amazing chocolatiers. In most cases you get what you pay for. In this case....you get cheap chocolates quality for a mediocre price. There are much better chocolates for this price on the market.These were a gift and I dont want to hurt the feelings of the person who bought them so I decided not to tell him how bad these were...I just recommended some chocolates that are some of my favorites for the future.After seeing the response from Birmingham Chocolate to my review....Obviously you will try to argue that your buisness is great. And to some degree certain things are subjective. Your molds are not the problem. Yes some other places use small molds as well. I feel your descriptions of your chocolates and pictures that are shown on your website are misleading at best. No these are not the worst chocolates Ive ever had...However after shipping my boyfriend spent approximately $40 for 15 very small pieces of mediocre chocolate. I would have enjoyed Rocher Chocolates more.Trust me Rocher are good but not what I would call high end quality. My suggestion would be to sample some truly high end chocolate and you can tell the difference. The creaminess, flavors and presentation all go into truffles. These are more like what a kid buys on Valentines day in those cheap heart shaped boxes from Russell chocolate. You might like them but definitely not the same quality. I personally dont like them. For $40 I can find much better chocolates. I dont know you and dont wish bad things for your buisness. I do believe in posting honest reviews. I hope you do better and wish you well...but i would not buy from you until you improve.As for the other reviews...Lets get real. 1) As I stated these things are subjective.2) We all know most buisnesses have friends, family, and employees post good reviewsSome even pay people to post fake good reviews.3) If you give someone a discount or free chocolate for a 5 star review...guess what happens.I read and .write reviews with a lot of thought.You might not like or agree with my review. It is up to the people buying to decide what they do. Reviews are the only way for online purchasers to judge. They cant sample...If the pictures were more accurate maybe that could help as well. I could aslo recommend that you put something in the box that discribed each chocolate. When we went online to read the discrimination of what was SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE BOX....that didnt match with what we recieved.
Amazing chocolate and some of the most wonderful chocolatiers that I have ever met
I bought chocolate here for Easter. It was very smooth and great tasting. I will go back.
Delicious homemade chocolates! Owner was simply wonderful, helpful, very sweet.
Anything and everything you could possibly want from a chocolatier, traditional and vegan chocolates, customize logos for corporate and special events, you can absolutely never go wrong. Owner Doug Hill are always more than happy to help you create a special gift or even cater a chocolate party! My favorite is the dark chocolate organic lavender Goji bars, and whatever type of truffle Im in the mood for! They have them all...
This place has a wide range of candy from old, almost historic sweets, to trendy, relatively new candies.
Great smelling and tasting place. Very nice people working there.
Amazing staff and chocolate. They are now called Schocolate. Delicious marzipan.
The vegan solud dark chocolate is the best my wife and I have had anywhere in the world.
Many Delicious chocolates to choose from, creative ways to display them at your party and NUMEROUS patterns and molds ! Also will do classes and a great place just to go, sit relax, have a cup of joe and smell the chocolate while you do work or meet a friend.
Great selection of vegan chocolates!
Omg the chocolate is soo awesome! And let me tell you the absolute BEST hot chocolate Ive ever had anywhere!! I dont know how they make it but omg it taste like your drinking liquid chocolate! YUM!! BEST HOT CHOCOLATE EVER!
The best place around to get chocolate! Have tons of variety ! Staff is very friendly!
Great atmosphere, very friendly owner and the hot chocolate is amazing!!!!!
Unbelievable selection of bars, truffles and bark. Helpful and friendly staff.
Being an avid high end chocolate consumer, I am looking to find a fine high quality local chocolate/chocolatier. Lets just assume Im like a connoisseur of fine chocolate.I happen across Schakolad on my way to Birmingham and purchased a box of 24 pieces. The chocolates in my opinion are not five star, maybe above Godiva (and Godiva is not the standard). I was aiming at something like Cocoa Bella from LA, Christopher Elbow USA or Cocoa Black from Melbourne Australia. I guess Ill keep paying shipping and handling until I find something to intrigue and tantalize my taste buds locally.You know something that has finesse, a subtle hinting of spices and unmistakeable full flavors overlapping distinctly but harmonized. For instance Id like to taste the toasted-ness of the pecan nut, embedded in a rich caramel center, a sprinkle of sea salt on top, coated in a chocolate shell that has a balanced amount of cocoa and sugar not bitter and not cheap tasting overcompensating chocolate sugar, a bite of perfection. In every bite, in every variety.Dont get me wrong if you had nothing else Schakolad is great. Id describe it like this, Schakolad 1 Michelin star, Godiva none and Christopher Elbow 3 Michelin stars.I rated it 4 star on price, presentation, customer service, location, variety and selection.
Beautiful and tasty chocolates, very good variety
Stop the presses! 🍫🍰🍩🍮🍬🍯🍾
Its Birmingham
