Serious chocolate-lovers avoid the chocolatiers of Mayfair and their exquisitely designed jewel-like sweeties and head down to this delightful Chiswick boutique. This is chocolate for purists, each piece clearly hand-moulded, with the rough edges that show a true artisan at work. They are also so rich in cocoa that it dusts your hands as you eat, hanging in the air to give the small premises a heady, sultry atmosphere. There are plenty of posh options if you need a gift to impress somebody, but for sheer chocolate deliciousness you simply can't beat the big baskets of roughly-cut dark and milk chocolate that dominate the shop.
