Chocolate lover's dream! Highest quality artisan chocolate. Frisch Schoggi is a must...i love that there are so many options and flavors from white to milk to dark and so many different inclusions like fruits, nuts and even cornflakes, one of my favorites! They use piedmont hazelnuts and the best california almonds in their chocolates, so it's obvious they put a lot of care into using only the finest ingredients. Service is great overall but it really depends on who is working. They have really enthusiastic, welcoming sales associates that are really knowledgable about chocolate but there are one or two employees that seem like they don't want to be there...they don't acknowledge you when you walk in, and don't look up from behind the chocolate counter to take your order. Such a shame because the great employees are the best ever and enhance the whole laderach experience.
Best chocolate spot in Santa Monica plus they give you free samples to taste to guide your buying choice
I have been A HUGE FAN and consistently repeating customer of Laderach even since I moved to US. Knew them first time in Swiss, then figured they had stores in London when I used to live there and it's been my almost every weekend grab and go. First moving to LA and knowing it's available here couldn't get me more excited but it's always challenging as all outlets were kinda far, at least being like 15 miles away. Hence when I saw that 'COMING SOON' poster at Westfield Century City, I was beyond thrilled they finally made it to the west!! As per the common Laderach store, the Century City one was indifferent, with gorgeous frishschoggi (fresh chocolate) slabs displayed at the front side, inviting people to pay a visit. The store always gave this elegant and classy vibe, perfectly represented their products. It's also their signature treat that visitors were able to try anything prior to purchase. It's very frequent that there's an attendant went around the store handing free samples to try as well. I tried tons of their chocolate slabs, from classic milk/dark with almond or hazelnut or macadamia, milk salted caramel, strawberry yogurt; till some more signature or seasonal ones like nut trio, espresso, blonde chocolate, pistachio, marzipan, and even cinnamon french toast! None ever failed me so it's really depending on preference ;) Their pralines and truffles were also mind blowing and my go-to were mostly anything coming with gianduja!
This chocolate is amazing.! The combinations of ingredients in each bar is unique & tasty. Most sheets have some kind of nut inside, but I must mention the dark chocolate with smoked blueberry 👍 and the caramel chocolate toffee 👍👍. Emily was generous & helped each of us find our right taste preference. Great experience & Definitely worth a stop in….
There is not a time I felt I wanted to write a review so much. This small chocolate store’s chocolate really amazed me. I ordered every flavor, and surprisingly I loved all. It is the best chocolate I’ve ever tried. There was a time that Dubai Pistachio chocolate became a trend. But the taste is better here. It reminded me of the joy that I had chocolate when I was a little kid. Full of surprises on every different bite. I especially loved the white truffles. Soooo yummy, and with layers. Not just one, but mixed.
