2008-10-12 22:54:57   Our realtor sent us a box of these after the purchase of our last house. We also recently received a box of as a wedding favor. Yum! Robust flavors, delicate presentation, depth, creativity... really nice chocolates. My favorite is the ginger. —MariahBetz

The storefront is tucked away in an alley near Lux and the alley is adorned with white xmas lights. Very cute. I gave a few boxes of chocolate to family/friends for xmas, and they were all extremely impressed with the unique and tasty flavors(eggnog, pomegranate, ginger, etc). You can also design your own box and choose which truffles you'd like to be included. Highly recommended!! —TrishHeckmann

2010-10-05 11:00:54   In general I prefer to eat dark plain single origin cacao chocolate bars, but for Hedonist Chocolates, I definitely make an exception. They have hand crafted chocolates and truffles in many interesting and unique flavors. I take out of town visitors there as part of the "Rochester tour" and when I travel to visit friends and relatives, I usually take gift boxes from Hedonist Chocolates. —KairakuShugisha

The staff was great at making suggestions and I walked out with a ton of chocolate—all received great reviews from my family. I especially recommend anything that pairs chocolate with big crystals of salt. —elizabethyockel
