Since its founding, Kakawa has earned a reputation as one of the most exciting and original chocolate shops in the world.

Our Chocolatiers 

Kakawa's chocolatiers are dedicated to sharing their passion for chocolate. They balance the traditional with the cutting edge, creating unique and exquisitely bold creations from fresh and seasonal ingredients. Their one-of-a-kind creations include truffles, chocolate elixirs, agave caramels, solid dark chocolates, alternative baked goods, and delicious homemade ice cream. Working exclusively in small batches, our staff ensures that each piece of chocolate looks as exquisite as it tastes.

Our Mission

Our mission is to re-introduce you to chocolate. We draw on chocolate's long history, re-creating original Mesoamerican, European and Colonial chocolate elixir recipes, and using them to inspire our new and exciting creations. We have a startling variety of contemporary flavors including Passion fruit, Cherry Chile, our signature- Goat Cheese & Sage, and Mescal and offer a number of dairy-free and Vegan confections. Kakawa also offers classic European-style truffles such as French Dark and Raspberry Hazelnut. All of our chocolates are also gluten free.

Our delightful staff are as passionate about the history and anthropology of chocolate as the chocolatiers themselves, delivering a rich experience to everyone who comes through our doors. In everything we do, we support sustainability, fair trade, local farming, and culinary daring.
