Gridskipping - Los Angeles Chocolatiers

I did a guest post on Gridskipper.com of some Los Angeles chocolatiers. They have an awesome system of mapping everything. However, they gave me an itty bitty box to cram into it everything I thought was important about each one. If you’re looking for more, I’ve linked everything up here to my yummilicious reviews along with a grand listing you can print out if you want to do a little tour of Southern California chocolates.

  1. Hi Cybele:

    I’m going to be in LA next week (staying in Santa Monica). If you had one LA chocalatier to recommend, preferably in West LA or Santa Monica, where would you recommend? (If you have a great cupcake bakery recommendation, I’d love that, too.)
