Artisan chocolates with adventurous flavors and jewel-like finishes
"Every Topogato chocolate in this luxe curation looks like a work of art: a gold-embossed box filled with six different truffles, and I appreciate that you can personalize the selection to meet dietary needs, including vegan, alcohol-free, and gluten-free options." - Francky Knapp
"Opened its first shop as of Mother's Day at 5203 Geary Boulevard, offering gorgeous bites of chocolate made by former Liholiho Yacht Club pastry chef Simon Brown, who’s partnered with pastry chef Julie Barrette, per the San Francisco Chronicle." - Dianne de Guzman
"A maker of colorful, exquisitely presented confections that is receiving heightened attention thanks to the proprietor opening a first permanent location on Geary Boulevard; owner Simon Brown is credited with bringing the shop’s treats into a more visible, brick-and-mortar phase." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Eater SF once called it “most audacious online chocolate shop.” These hand-painted confections play with adventurous flavor combinations such as brandied eggnog, blood orange amaretto, and spiced hot chocolate." - Monica Burton
"Topogato has the buddy comedy background to keep dishing out delectable delights. Owner Simon Brown’s talent shines through creations like coconut passionfruit bars that look more like art pieces than candies. The business is entirely online, but pick-up is available at Lower Haight shop Her Urban Herbs. Topogato also ships nationwide as they team up with local bars such as Rye Bar for wacky-themed dessert nights." - Becky Duffett
