Dandelion Chocolate

"Open until 9 p.m., this chocolatier, originally based in the Bay Area, is tempting for its window display of chocolate treats — but the coffee offerings are equally impressive. Order a satisfying espresso or pour-over — or indulge in drinks made with single-origin chocolate like a Marocchino that combines European drinking chocolate with double espresso and cocoa-nib whipped cream. The chic minimalist interior is highly Instagrammable, too." - Janna Karel

"Dandelion Chocolate reopens its store with only its retail line including The Single Origin Truffle Collection, Hot Chocolate Trio, and Sea Salt Caramels. Beverages such as frozen chocolate and pastries may return in May or June." - Susan Stapleton

"San Francisco-based Dandelion Chocolate debuts its chocolate cafe at the Venetian on Saturday, December 7, with free hot chocolate until the drink runs out. Las Vegas becomes the first U.S. city outside of San Francisco to have a permanent cafe and shop. The company specializes in single origin bean-to-bar chocolate and features a chocolate-focused menu by executive pastry chef Lisa Vega that spans from breakfast to dinner. That means banana bread with Camino Verde chocolate chips and cocoa nib streusel and nib scones for breakfast, along with Ritual coffee drinks, chocolate chip or oatmeal cookies. Exclusive to Las Vegas, a chocolate-covered eclair with passion fruit and a brown butter blondie. Diners can order a brownie flight with three types of chocolate, a dessert plate, or one of a trio of hot chocolates that include the classic hot chocolate, the spicy Mission hot chocolate, or extravagant European hot chocolate. Even a frozen hot chocolate or iced mocha make the menu." - Susan Stapleton

"Dandelion Chocolate, which opens at the Venetian in December, has an advent calendar with artwork focused around the theme Quail in a Cacao Tree." - Susan Stapleton
