Christopher Elbow Chocolates

We went on a tour and Ethan was the best. We asked so many questions and he was so patient. The pictures and graphics were well done. Over the years we have purchased so many boxes of chocolate. We rave all over about their chocolates. Thanks for an experience to go with our confections.

I gotta admit my significant other and I were having a bad black Friday. Arguing a lot. Went to Christopher elbow to make an advent kinda style box for xmas. The girl was so helpful and patient. The experience turned the day around for us. We got a 48 piece, but picked each flavor we wanted in pairs. Delicious chocolate. Worth the money.

I recently had the pleasure of trying Christopher Elbow Chocolates. The packaging is elegant, making it perfect for gifts or a special treat for yourself. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. If you’re a chocolate lover, Christopher Elbow Chocolates is a must-try! 🍫

They're quite tasty and well-presented, but at $2.60 per bonbon that's a lot per carb or cavity! Regardless, quite photogenic for chocolate.

If you want to talk impress someone with a box of chocolates, Christopher Elbow is *the* premier place to buy chocolates that is located in the south side of downtown Kansas City. Their largest box of chocolates will run you $100 and a small box of four will run about $13. They also sell other delicious chocolate themed items like candy bars that are high in Cocoa and hot cocoa powder. The store itself is charming, very colorful, basic, and inviting. About half of the store is reserved for some seating and restrooms for the guests. It is hard not to get a good feeling when you walk into this well appointed storefront. The gentleman behind of the counter was very helpful and kind in finding just what we were looking for. Like the chocolates, there's definitely a lot of thought that went into creating a storefront and lounge area to make it very lovely and inviting. Their boxes and gift wrapping are also top notch. If you happen to stop in here to buy chocolates, go another two and a half blocks and visit Messenger coffee house. I've included some pictures of the chocolates that are available. If you found this review helpful please give it a thumbs up. Thank you so much!

This place is heaven, I normally don't leave reviews unless I'm overly impressed. I was here yesterday and was overly impressed by the customer service, the cleanliness of the store. The chocolates displayed in perfect symmetry looked just perfect, so beautifully crafted, and the taste. Definitely made with love, I will surely be going back for more and refer the business to my friends.

My family is in LOVE with Christopher Elbow Chocolates. If you want to impress someone with a box of chocolates, this is the place. They are pricy, but don't let that stop you from indulging in the most decadent piece of chocolate you have ever tasted. The person behind the counter was very helpful and offered recommendations that fit each of our tastes perfectly. Their boxes and gift wrapping are also beautiful. BUT their chocolates are the show stopper. Stop in if you want to know what I am talking about. Each chocolate is a piece of art that is only outdone by the taste. We are looking forward to the Christmas Advent Calendars that we pre-ordered.

Amazing Artisan chocolatier in downtown KC. Gorgeous chocolates are available by the piece or in curated assortments. Flavors are inviting, from decident caramels to exotic Aztec spice. The shop is bright and cheerful and the staff are friendly and informative. A delightful experience!!

Christopher Elbow Chocolates is a top spot in Kansas City for anyone who loves fancy, handcrafted chocolates. The chocolates look amazing, almost like little pieces of art, with bright colors and cool designs. They don't just look good--they taste incredible too. The chocolate is super smooth and rich, with just the right amount of sweetness. What really makes them stand out are the fun and unique flavors. You'll find things like lavender caramel, passion fruit truffles, and chocolates with spices or teas mixed in. The flavor combos are bold but work really well together, making each bite special. They also have drinking chocolates, which are perfect for when you want something warm and indulgent. Plus, their gift boxes are great for special occasions. The chocolates are a bit pricier than what you'd get at the grocery store, but the quality and craftsmanship are worth it. Overall, Christopher Elbow Chocolates is a must-try if you're into high-end sweets or looking for a unique gift.

I came in for the hand crafted gourmet chocolate and was intrigued when they offered the drinking chocolates made with oat milk and fresh whipped cream. Most definitely the BEST hot chocolate I've ever tasted in my life. It was so good I had to double back to buy a canister so I could enjoy this goodness at home! I love the fact that it is crafted from pure dark chocolate and blended with Tahitian vanilla bean. A packet of Swiss miss could never! I wish there was a franchise in Kansas, but I am happy Missouri isn't too far away. Special thank you to the girl who helped me pick out the perfect gift and use my reward the same day. I love companies that offer rewards for the money spent and I can't wait to come back and try the homemade marshmallows!

Christopher Elbow is one of THE iconic names in KC. I can't think of a more special gift than giving someone a box of Christopher Elbow chocolates. They are beautiful, unique, and delicious. It's fun to gawk at them from the other side of the glass. They also have seasonal candies, drinking chocolate powder, chocolate covered nuts, and chocolate bars! It's expensive - I'll give you that - but the whimsy is worth it. The reason to go to the store in Crossroads is to get drinking chocolate! It is luxurious, rich, and creamy - so much more decadent than a regular hot chocolate. They have delicious flavors. I recently tried the spiced dark chocolate, and it is SPICY! So warming. Getting a drinking chocolate was a KC bucket list item for me and my girlfriend for so long. One of the best times to come is on first Friday right at 4 pm because they often have deals where you can get individual chocolates for $1. It is crazy in there, and if you get there even an hour late, all the chocolates will be sold out. Get there early and reap the benefits!

All I can say is OMG!!! These chocolates are incredible. Definitely not cheap but every chocolate is a unique taste explosion in your mouth. Everything from the presentation to the information sheet inside which explains the different flavors of each chocolate to the professional finish of each piece of chocolate is mind blowing. Chocolateering is a science and an art all In one. Each chocolate melts in your mouth and exposes the flavor bit by bit as it melts. I can't wait for my next box!!!

I'm not a huge chocolate lover but I could eat Christopher Elbow chocolates all the time. Unfortunately, Christopher Elbow only has stores in Kansas City and San Francisco. I've never seen these chocolates sold where I'm from. I stopped by the Kansas City store and tried a variety of their chocolates on display and purchased a box of Peanut Butter Cups. Christopher Elbow chocolates are expensive but so delectable and worth the treat for oneself or loved ones during the holidays or special occasions. I made sure to savor every morsel. I will be sure to stop by again the next time I'm in Kansas City.

Delicious chocolates. Artisanal and expensive but worth it to sample occasionally. Couldn't tell the single origin ganache apart because they all had the same chocolate shell covering. Bummer but delicious anyway. Rosemary chocolate had rosemary infused caramel inside. Yum!

Had a white elephant exchange and thought this was the perfect gift to bring! I've only heard of this place that was highly recommended by friends and I do see why. When you walk in the shop, it's a small very cute boutique chocolate shop with a beautiful assortment of chocolates in so many different flavors! I ended up picking the 8 piece assorted chocolate box that cost around $26ish. The staff assisting me was extremely helpful in picking out the best flavors and was very attentive. I was in and out of the shop in 5 min which made it really convenient (considering this gift was very last minute lol). Would totally recommend this to anyone looking for gifts for the Christmas time / significant other / or birthday gift!!! Definitely meant for a special occasion or if you ever wanna treat yourself.

I visited this cute, classy, chocolate heaven while I was exploring Kansas City. The chocolates are tiny pieces of art. Seeing them in the display when you walk in is a feast for the eyes. The worst part is trying to pick out which ones to buy. The flavor combinations are amazing. I bought an 8 piece box. I wound up buying a couple of extra pieces ($2 ea) and a dark chocolate peanut butter square. I believe it was $4. The size of this square is 2-3 pieces of the small chocolates. I also want to note if you love coffee, you should purchase one of their decadent espressos. They use their chocolate and then add in the espresso. They aren't very big and they are $6, but just soooo delicious if you like chocolate and espresso. Not only are the chocolates exquisite, but I got lucky and Cecelia was working the morning I visited. My partner stayed out in front of the shop walking our dog so I could go in and when Cecelia saw them out there, she walked out with a big bowl of water for my dog. She also spent time talking with me about the chocolates. After I picked the Earl Grey and a chai, she said we probably enjoyed some of the same flavor profiles and recommended some more even giving me one piece to taste because she thought I would like it. She wasn't wrong! The Yuzu Mandarin is exquisite. I wound up with the Passion Fruit, another Yuzu Mandarin, a Rosemary, Fresh Lemon, Lavender, Fluer de sel, and Pistachio Cherry. She made sure I had a menu that describes each chocolate so I could remember as I try them. They also ship! I believe they only have locations in Kansas City and San Francisco. After getting my chocolates together, making my espressos, and ringing me up, Cecilia asked if she could walk me out and meet my dog. She told us more about Kansas City since she had moved there 20 years earlier. The city has changed a lot but they still love it and it was the best move they ever made. She is a great ambassador for KC! She also loves animals and has rescue rabbits. My dog is very shy but let Cecilia pet her. She knows a good person when she meets them. As we were getting ready to leave, Cecilia said her Monday had started off frustrating and she thanked me for coming in because I had made her day much better! What a kind thing to say to a customer. She had made my trip to Christopher Elbow Chocolates special and joyful. I'll remember Cecilia long after the chocolates are gone, so I hope the company knows how much their employees brighten the experience of their customers. I am now eating my chocolates slowly because they are so pretty to look at and scrumptious! I'll miss them when they are gone! Maybe I'll call up Cecilia to place a mail order soon!

Have you ever looked at chocolate and thought it was almost TOO beautiful to eat? If you have...then it must have been a sweet chocolate treat from Christopher Elbow Chocolates. My chocolate choices: Fleur De Sel (buttery caramel infused with gray french sea salt), Fresh Lemon (lemon marmalade and lemon infused white chocolate ganache), Champagne (milk chocolate ganache infused with French champagne & coated in dark chocolate with a dusting of powdered sugar. Each of the chocolates are shiny & beautifully crafted. You can purchase individual chocolates and sets. Visit Christopher Elbow Chocolates in the Crossroads area of KC today!

I didn't know this place existed. So happy to come upon it! They have the most BEAUTIFUL chocolates, and such an interesting variety of flavors. The staff member assisting me was so kind and helpful. I was pleased to see they had some sale prices on St. Patty's Day boxes, and I also purchased a lovely package for a birthday gift. I will definitely be back. In fact, probably soon for some Easter gifts. Do check it out!

A surprising location, but with easily accessible parking-pretty hidden unless you are heading there on a mapped-out journey. The vibes are definitely clean, and modern- sterile even. The gorgeous colors of the chocolates make up for it. Carefully displayed, the flavors make you want to say " one of each, please"! I have worked my way through them, and am happy to say that I believe I have tried 90% of what they have available. All have been unbelievable. Highlights: Lemon, fleur de sel, lavender caramel Their drinking chocolate is at the perfect temp for sipping, and when topped with their marshmallows!?- perfection.

I would love to know if they have amazing hot chocolate but was denied service because they were cleaning up. Arrived at 5:53, they close at 6. I worked in coffee and closing down the steamer early is a gamble and customers sometimes come in close to close. It does suck, but it's a minor inconvenience. In fact, it's your job. Was really looking forward to an artisan hot chocolate with my kids to go look at Christmas Lights.

Wow, these chocolates are such a treat! I was first introduced to the brand when my brother in law sent us a beautiful box of chocolates and enjoyed it so much I made sure we stopped here on a recent KC BBQ trip. Will be back next time we are in KC and will keep Christopher Elbow in mind for gifts!

Lovely chocolate shop. It has a modern European/ German vibe. I ended up picking mostly Carmel and I didn't even know it. My favorites were the lavender and the champagne. They also have an option where you can buy a slew of chocolate to drink. It's not like hot chocolate, it's like a glass of liquid chocolate. It can get you where you want to be. I'd go back for sure. If you buy this chocolate for someone. It's like giving them a unicorn. Love

Went in here for a girls day with about 15 girls and we were very rudely treated. We got here at 4:30 and we're told we needed to hurry and order and to not stay in the eating area too long because they wanted to start their deep cleaning.... AT 4:30!!!!! They close at 6. Served us cold hot chocolate and was mad when we told them it was cold. The lady kept saying ugh not on a Saturday afternoon when we are just wiped, making a huge deal we were here to BUY chocolates... and honestly I'd rather have a bag of m&ms. Too expensive to be treated like that. Won't be coming back. Jasmine really tried to make up for the way we were treated though so that was nice and thank you jasmine!!

Not only are these locally made and beautiful, they are the most delicious truffles I've ever had! So many unique flavors it's truly hard to choose! Highly recommend.

Best chocolate you'll have. We've purchased Elbow chocolates before but never from their actual storefront. The staff were warm, inviting, and helpful. The options were overwhelming but we chose a box of six and two of the premade winter boxes. Their chocolate covered almonds are to die for. Definitely come here for a stop if you're in the area, it's so worth it!

We had a sweet tooth so decided to stop by this place. It is exactly what the title says: artisanal chocolates. They clearly are made with a lot of effort as each piece is intricately decorated. They have about ~15 different flavors and we chose 4 of them: caramel pecan, fleur de les, lemon and macademia praline. We really enjoyed all of them except the lemon one which was a bit too strong in flavor. The fleur de les is the most popular for a reason, it was delicious! The price is a bit steep at $2.50 but as I mentioned, they are made with a lot of detail.

I work downtown and not too far from their store. I stop in for special events that take place in my life. Never disappointed by what they have to offer, just a little pricey to indulge more often. I'll always recommend this place.

I wanted to stop here because this is the home location to the boutique that I frequent in San Francisco. They make the most beautiful and approachable chocolates that I have experienced. The fact of the matter is I don't fancy chocolate so it must be something to it if I'm writing about it.

Halloween is my favorite holiday and @elbowchocolates celebrates it in the best way!!! The designs are cute and a little creepy. The flavors are October in sweet form. Pumpkin spice, sour apple - this is how adults Trick or Treat!

My husband and I were looking forward to try Elbow chocolates for a while now and what better time to enjoy them than on an intimate weekend indoors celebrating Valentine's and our 5th wedding Anniversary? The entire experience of contacting them on facebook messenger for some information to filling up a form for the curbside pickup was pretty smooth though we ended up taking a masked tour of their beautiful boutique shop and decided to give up on our curbside pickup privileges. We ordered a box of 36 chocolates, a small Valentine's box and a creme brulee bar. We also purchased a can of their hot chocolate while picking up our order. It was an expensive purchase with a cool 14% valentine's day off and one that I will definitely be tempted to make again but only for a select flavors because not all of them were for us. The aztec spice was my least favorite but their raspberry caramel is to die for. The Lavender filled one had a lot of lavender to my taste but the lemon filled one was so perfect that I'm craving for one right now! We divided each piece of art (yes, these chocolates= art!) into 2 and had a taste test of all the pieces and decided on which ones we'd go for in the future. Their creme brulee bar blew our minds! It's the most decadent chocolate you'll have tasted in your entire life! Those shards of caramelized sugar taste fantastic on a bed of fine white chocolate. Don't be surprised if you find 10 of those lying around in my secret chocolate cupboard! Christopher Elbow chocolates are fine pieces of art and the outer coating of chocolate that encases the caramel and other flavors within is beautifully crafted thin. You won't bite into a huge chunk of chocolate and miss the flavors because they are gourmet in every sense and they look like brilliant artsy marbles. I cannot wait to go back for my favorites and try some new flavors too! If you have a special occasion coming, this would be the perfect place to get some gourmet chocolates!

Walk in and you feel instantly transported to the tranquil land of divine chocolates. The lady behind the counter was so incredibly kind and friendly. Helped answer my questions on their chocolates and I was able to pick out ~7 pieces to try out. There are SO many flavors to choose from and the flavors are really spot on. This is also a great place to get a sweet gift for anyone!

Found the web site hard to work through could not fix two day shipping Kanas to New Mexico not necessarily needed, hope they can fix my wife order. Confirmation EAVUTQ53U

Christopher Elbow Artisanal Chocolates is a beautiful chocolatier in the greater downtown area of Kansas City. Their bonbons are truly works of art. The chocolates have the perfect, shiny sheen with artistic designs on them. Flavors include vanilla bean, chai caramel, citrus Carmel, pistachio cherry, Irish coffee, and a host of others. You can customize 2, 4, 8, or greater size boxes or just get a single piece. They also offer chocolate bars and sipping chocolate. Their prices are what you would expect of a quality chocolate shop--so don't expect drugstore or chain chocolate prices. However the bonbons are delicious and the staff is knowledgeable and incredibly friendly.

What's not to love about this local treasure? Christopher Elbow chocolates are a visual and culinary masterpiece! The staff is always fantastic and the store is always pristine.

Decadence. That's The only word to use! A stop at this flagship brings 3 joys: 1. A very robust collection of Elbow's artfully crafted chocolates and sweets 2. DRINKING chocolate. Oh my... You should eat a salad beforehand and might want to plan to walk around a bit afterwards, but this is like drinking from Wonka's chocolate river... Only warm and comforting! 3. A sneak peek at how is all made! The shop has a glass viewing wall back into the factory/workshop and it's fun to see the bustle bring forth beautiful and delicious chocolate. Tip: My favorite drinking chocolate is the peanut butter version, but whatever you choose, don't skip the house made marshmallows!

These chocolates were delicious! Melt in your mouth can't get enough chocolate. Absolutely a must when in the KC area! I will be coming back for sure. They have a flavor for everyone with a very wide selection to choose from.

Amazing place with chocolates! Beautiful art and chocolate is combine together?! Sometimes I think the chocolates are too pretty to eat, but once I bite into one, it's so tasty and rich in flavors. There's plenty of different flavors and staff are really friendly and really helpful to pick out the chocolates in your favor. I like coming here for First Fridays, it gives me a chance to check out the chocolates that I haven't taste or get my favorites (like the passion fruit). This is a great place to give a love one or friend who like chocolates.

This is a cute and quaint chocolate shop. The chocolates are delicious and so very pretty. The single pieces remind me of the colorful selection from Matilda(no judgment). If you come on first Friday the chocolates are $1 each, so stock up!!! I enjoyed the lemon, lavender, and a few others. I wasn't a big fan of the Rosemary option. Check out my photo to see what I got. I basically loved them all!

Chocolates are pretty good, but the real beauty is the drinking chocolate. In the recent freezing temperatures, I made it with milk in a saucepan. Delicious. Wasn't very hygienic though. Found staff scratching their hair and then touching food.

As with many other famed chocolate boutiques, you're paying for the whole package at Christopher Elbow. The chocolates are not only delicious but also gorgeous, packaged in a pretty box to keep them that way. I like that the box has individual slots for each chocolate; I brought my goodies back to Maine and the pieces didn't move around and become a mess. I also really like the glossy look of the bonbons. It bothers me a lot when I get chocolates with cavities after paying a premium price because it shows poor attention to detail. It was a delight that Christopher Elbow's chocolates were visual perfection. I got an assortment of flavors: caramel apple, rosemary caramel, lavender caramel, fleur de sel caramel, butterscotch bourbon, maple bourbon, whiskey pecan, raspberry pate de fruit in dark chocolate with bergamot ganache, and banana foster. None stood out more than others; all of them were good. The hot chocolates were also worth trying. I got mine with marshmallows on top, and it was delightful for a cold spring day. Christopher Elbow was one of the reasons I fell in love with KCMO during my brief visit. I definitely would make it a point to stop by if I ever get a chance to visit the city again.

Love Love Love this place! I wish they had one closer and served the ice cream they make at Glace---a girl can dream :) My mom is always tasked with picking up chocolates for people back in Michigan from Christopher Elbow because people love them so much. The staff is always wonderful-super friendly and communicative. I have yet to try their hot chocolate but it looks phenomenal. A must try if you are in the KC area!

A chocolate lovers dream! Incredible sensory experience - beautifully made & vast array of candy combinations.

No brainer. If your in Kansas City MUST check this place out! A single bon bon (chocolate) runs $2.50. There are so many beautiful chocolates here and every flavor I have tried has been phenomenal. These chocolates make the perfect gift for anyone: - wife: BAM your forgiven - girlfriend: POOF instant engagement - boyfriend: WHAM amazing make-out session - friend: ZAP you just got yourself invited to that thing you love - yourself: ZING you just became a more refined and cultured human being. Congratulations. You see what I mean? It's perfect and foolproof, and you'll be perfect if you show up with some of these chocolates.

I love Christopher Elbow chocolates. My son always includes some in my Christmas stocking. I like supporting local businesses and it's easy when they're this good. And the people who work there are always friendly and helpful.

The chocolates here are a work of art. They are beautifully crafted with each piece colorful and graceful. Pair it with a simple yet elegant white box and brown ribbon to make it the perfect gift. For certain holidays though, the boxes can come in other colors. Aesthetics aside, the chocolates are delicious. The truffles are made of a ganache or caramel covered by a thin layer of chocolate. It blends together so well with the chocolate, and the whole piece just melts in your mouth. It is definitely not the traditional caramel that is chewy and sticks to your teeth. The flavors rotate seasonally so there is always something new to try. There are the standard chocolate, fruit, or alcohol flavors and some really exotic ones like yuzu or strawberry balsamic. The flavors you like are really a matter of your taste preference. Personally, I enjoy the lavender caramel and the dark chocolate flavors the most, but I have also enjoyed every flavor that I have tried. I do not care too much for the pate de fruit though. I find that to be a bit too sweet for me, and I would choose chocolate over any candy at any time anyways. Candies aside, the drinking chocolate is amazing. The rich dark chocolate flavor does not get masked by the milk so it literally is drinking a cup of liquid chocolate. Be prepared to empty your wallet though. The chocolates are $2-$3 a piece depending on how many you buy, and the drinking chocolate is a little cup that comes out to about $5. The treats are pricey but worth the splurge. However, after 5 P.M. on First Fridays, the chocolate and pate de fruit pieces are discounted to $1 a piece. Expect a long line during the sale. The only catch is that the pretty boxes are not available then. You quickly pick your pieces and get them in a paper bag, or you can bring your own container for the chocolates. Regardless of how much you spend here, what is a better way to treat yourself then with a delicious sweet treat?

Felt like I walked into an Apple store in here. The girl working was very helpful. We tried some truffles and hot chocolate, very tasty. They have a nice variety of chocolates and excellent quality.

Love the chocolate options & service. I can see where it can get crowded because the shop is tiny & so difficult to choose flavors from the many options. Disappointed that it was so hot so we decided not to try the hot drinks. Will definitely come back when it's cooler & to purchase more delicious, silky chocolates! Btw, the malted balls were very yummy!

I stopped in a few months ago for some fancy chocolate because I work down the street from this place and always passing it coming to and leaving the office. A little pricey, but for the exotic flavor's they offer, well worth the trip. I'll keep them in mind on my next special occasion.

This place is amazing. My boyfriend and I came here to get the 21 count box as a gift for some relatives in Toronto. The chocolate is pricey, but beautiful and delicious making it the perfect gift for those from out of town. The service here is amazing, and person that helped us with our purchase was very patient as we picked out 21 different chocolates for our box. She explained that the flat chocolates had chocolate ganache in them, while the domed shaped ones had caramel, and offered some recommendations near the end as we ran out of ideas on what to pick. Make sure to sign up for their rewards program in order to get free drinks and more as you accumulate points!

Most amazing chocolates EVER! I love to enjoy them, but love even more gifting them to friends and family.

The best chocolates I have ever tasted Their flavors rock Favs are hazelnut, lemon, banana foster The banana curry one should be on the menu permanently I wish I lived closer The BEST!!!

This shop looks like a gallery. Each piece is like a new painting. They are so delicious and beautifully designed. If you want to test your pallet go for more fruit flavored ones as they taste extremely fresh! Also, the staff here is so kind! And how could they not be, they have an amazing job.

Always a wow trying to select these beautiful chocolates, I dragged Eric R. here as my first stop in KC this past weekend upon hearing that yuzu is a seasonal flavor. Ordering online does not allow me to select flavors. Rather than chance an order to get a random assortment, I had to come here myself! I even stopped at Dean and Deluca yesterday and yuzu was not there. We got in a growing line Saturday morning just after opening time. Eric R. and I agreed that getting chocolates for our mothers would be a great gift (his parents' anniversary is this week and my mom's birthday is next week). We are able to hand deliver our gifts to them so this would be perfect...they both love chocolate! While I was there, I certainly had to get myself a box! I opted to get three 9-piece boxes. The artisan behind the counter dragged my three boxes down as I selected different flavors for each box based on what we thought our moms would like and then I got what I wanted. I think I could have gotten myself a 16-piece box! I ended up getting two additional yuzu chocolates for myself in a bag besides the one in my box. I considered some flavors that Eric R. might like in my box, and a few for my dad in my mom's box. Eric R. also ordered a peppermint "liquid chocolate" drink to try. He drank his warm drink in the seating area while I nibbled on a yuzu chocolate. entering a heavenly bliss that can only be equivalent to when I stayed at a ryokan called Yuzuya in Kyoto (yes, there are places for crazy people like me to stay on vacation that are all about one fruit). I cannot wait to share the chocolate love and return here for more chocolates. There is a holiday flavor sampler that looked so good but those flavors were not for sale individually (like gingerbread) so I skipped that for now. There is always next time!

The chocolates are beautiful truly but equally importantly have brilliant flavors and textures. These are pricey but worth it. Great for a gift or treat yourself moment. Standout flavors for me were brown butter bourbon, fleur de sel, and Venezuelan spice. Even though we were buying for ourselves, our purchases were gift packaged. We made a custom box that was gone within 2 days and my spouse doesn't even like chocolate so that speaks to the quality and delectablility. The person who assisted us was warm and had a nice demeanor. Street parking only. Interior is modern and petite- chocolates are displayed nicely so you can peruse the flavors. They also had chocolate bars and some fruit gelatin like sweet that was also delicious for the non chocolate lovers. I am buying some of these to ship to myself since I'm no longer in the area, so I definitely love this place.

Fantastic place. The ladies working were super nice and accommodating. Hey explained different things to us and let us take our time picking everything out. The chocolates were absolutely amazing. Pistachio Bergamot and Strawberry Balsamic were my two favorites. But, all of the chocolates were delicious. It's a neat little modern atmosphere to hangout in if you want to relax as well.

OH THE SMELLS!!! As soon as you walk into this shop, the smell just takes you over :) Clean lines, elegant decor, and just fabulous staff, Christopher Elbow chocolates are an indulgence and my go to gift when I want to bring a little bit of KC with me. Though the chocolates and caramels can be found around the city, I like coming to the mothershop because you can customize your own gift box. The bigger the box, the better price per unit... but beware - decision anxiety is a real thing! The staff is so friendly and patient and will organize your box like a true work of art! There is also a cafe so you can get some mocha goodness to go or take it in house while you ogle the chocolate operation through the glass wall in the back! A KC staple, this is truly a go to local gem!

It is appropriate that Christopher Elbow is located in the Crossroads district of Kansas City. This is where the arts meet the new culinary experiments of our fair city and CE Chocolates could be high on the list of culinary delights and artistic expressions. These chocolate creations are the greatest piece of indulgence in town, but even if they were inedible, people would still come in just to look at the shapes, colors, design and arrangement. When you are showing out of town guests around, Christopher Elbow is a must stop. When giving a special thank you to ladies in Customer Service at work, there is not a better choice. When you need that sweet luxury to get you through a bitter day, Christopher Elbow is your anodyne. Not that it matters, but my faves are Bananas Foster and Champagne.
