L.A.'s 8 Best Boutique Chocolate Shops

6. Amara Chocolate & Coffee

At this romantic café and chocolateria, artisan truffles are handmade with premium Venezuelan chocolate and luxe ingredients. Their white, milk, and dark chocolates are organized into varieties offering “Luxurious Pleasures” (Canoabo 70 % Dark, Rio Caribe 60 % Dark), “Sensual Pleasures” (Imperial Champagne, Grand Orange, Chic Hangover), “Exotic Pleasures” (Wild Passion Fruit, Pink GuavaCoco), and “Eternal Pleasures” (Zuly Intense Espresso, Crunchy Lele). We think these pleasures are worth pursuing this Valentine’s Day. [Photo via @amarachocolate] Amara Chocolate & Coffee 55 S Raymond Ave. Pasadena, CA 91105
