Testimonials
Three months in SB, eight visits to Chocolats du Calibressan. They are that good. I love these chocolates. The tastes are simple and delightful, and simply delightful. They release new flavors and designs every so often but maintain a large variety of perfected chocolates. My personal favorite is the passionfruit and anything ganache related. I've gotten custom boxes as gifts for my wife, my family, my friends, and my boss. Gift boxes, ribbon, and bag are free of charge and look really classy. A box of chocolates from Chocolats du Calibressan was always well received! The staff is incredibly patient, helpful, and kind. They will sometimes provide samples or even an extra piece of truffle for their regular customers. Remember to use the SB axxess card for the first time!Jon C.
