Kate Weiser Chocolate

Forget about Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, Dallas has its own version tucked into the backside of Trinity Groves. Founded by Dallas based chocolatier Kate Weiser, this little jewel box of a boutique-cum-dessert cafe is also Weiser's workspace where she creates chocolate nirvana--and there's seemingly no limit to her imagination. Weiser's eye-popping bonbons, which come in flavors like buttery popcorn (with a white chocolate and sweet corn ganache enrobed in Valrhona chocolate) and key lime pie (with a white chocolate graham cracker ganache and key lime pate de fruit) are nothing short of a revelation. She also concocts everything from truffles and candy bars to macarons, ice cream and seasonal goodies--all equally inventive and delicious. Do try to nab one of the tables so you can enjoy your macarons and bonbons with a cup of drinking chocolate or espresso.
