best chocolate experience i've ever had!. this place provided one of the very best chocolate experiences i've ever had in my entire life. chocolate is my number one. i'm pretty happy to eat it in any form, but cream based desserts are my favorites - ice cream, cheesecake, mousse, pudding. my husband and i went to french broad last night and shared four items. only one of them was a disappointment and i want to cover it first to get it out of the way. their ice cream is just not for me - it has more of an icy texture than a creamy one and it also lacks the punch of flavor that i have come to expect. so the salted caramel and chocolate milkshake simply didn't do it for me.
however, everything else was fantastic! the chocolate creme brulee was smooth and creamy with the perfect sugar crust. i was absolutely smitten with the layered pudding/mousse of chocolate and caramel. but the liquid truffle was my favorite - mostly because it's so unique! where else can you get this?!? these liquid truffles are served in a tiny espresso-sized cup. they have the flavor and thick of consistency of melted chocolate, which is basically all i want out of life. we tried the salted caramel and fell in love. i would absolutely buy one for every visit.
on my way out, i stopped next door at chocolate and milk to gawk at their chocolate library and to pick up some treats for the road. i also treated myself to one of their fantastic truffles - some deliciously rich peanut butter and chocolate thing.
this place had many other treats that look very tempting. next time i would consider the chocolate mousse, the coconut macaroon brownie or the chocolate tart. so many choices!
