Top 5 Chocolate Cafes in Melbourne

TOP 5 CHOCOLATE CAFES IN MELBOURNE

1. Ko Ko Black

Indulge in their creamy rich hot chocolate, luxurious Belgian Spoil chocolate platter & silken chocolate tart. With its heavy leather cushioned wooden chairs & dark teak decor, Koko Black Cafe looks as decadent as its rows of salacious chocolate treats. Situated in 6 locations across Victoria ( including 2 in the city) and 1 in Canberra, it isn't hard to find a comforting chocolate fix near you.

2. Max Brenner

Established in 1995 in Israel by a passionate confectioner Max, the bald man, Max Brenner now has 20 chocolate bars around the world and 14 in Australia. Some must-haves here include their classic hot chocolate in a hug mug (choose from dark, milk, white, dark-orange or reduced-calorie), their warm Belgian waffle drizzled with pure melted chocolate and their chocolate souffle - a warm moist chocolate cake with a centre oozing with rich heavenly chocolate. Check out their online menu here.

3. San Churro

Giving Max Brenner a run for its money is the Spanish Franchise San Churro, which recently opened a stream of chocolate cafes across Australia. Chocolate lovers come here for their spanish churros accompanied by lavish spanish couverture chocolate dips; as well as their delicate spanish chocolate tapas.

4. The Chokolait Hub

This boutique chocolate cafe is a hidden gem tucked in a corner at the hub arcade off little collins st in the city. Being a smaller player in the market, this cafe makes up for its size with personalised service where their staff happily share the flavours, tasting notes and delights of each Belgian chocolate varietal. Whatever chocolate you decide to pamper yourself with, you'll be sure to walk out feeling like a million dollars.

5. Cacao

Locally hand made to perfection, each chocolate is an explosion of flavour. Saunter in to their patisserie and you will immediately be greeted by the delightful chocolate scent and smiling staff. Sit down, relax and enjoy their fine hot chocolate or hand pick a few of your favourite chocolate truffles to take away. By the way, did you know that chocolate is good for you? ;)
