Hello, my name is Liz, and I’m a chocolate-addict. Artisan chocolate to be exact. So, I know where to find the Top 5 Best Artisan Chocolates in Los Angeles.

I love chocolate. But not any chocolate. I love artisan chocolate. Since artisan chocolate is real chocolate in my opinion. It consists of more cocoa vs sugar like commercial chocolate.  Therefore, I see artisan chocolate as guilt-free since it’s all-natural and is not filled with sugar. I believe it is actually good for you. Healthy chocolate improves your mood, helps weight loss, and lowers blood pressure. It is filled with antioxidants (read more at Health Benefits of Chocolate). Thankfully, there are plenty of places I can find artisan Chocolate in Los Angeles.

But I can’t be the only person who loves chocolate. Since there are multiple days dedicated to celebrating chocolate.

  • Valentines Day on February 14
  • World Chocolate Day on July 7
  • National Milk Chocolate Day on July 28
  • National Chocolate Day on October 28
  • Halloween on October 31
  • Chocolate Covered Anything Day on December 16

03. Valerie Confections, Local Bakery in Los Angeles


One word. Lavender. Valerie Confections is a artisan boutique bakery with two location in Los Angeles that sell lavender chocolate. How awesome is that?  Since lavender is the new craze and my latest obsession. But they are known for their Instagram-worthy petit fours and matcha truffle is another favorite. This bakery also offers mouth watery cakes. They are located in Koreatown.

ChocoVivo is a bean-to-bar chocolate company in Los Angeles. Bean-to-bar chocolate basically means chocolate made from scratch starting with the whole beans, everything is made at the same place or company. That’s why, ChocoViva is one of the only places in Los Angeles where you can learn how chocolate is made. It’s the only chocolatier in Los Angeles that offers chocolate-blended tortillas.

05. Milla Chocolate, Award Winning Chocolate

If I had one word for Milla Chocolate, it would minimalist. Milla Chocolate has a chic and minimalist store in Culver City, Los Angeles. They handcraft chocolates and confections at the boutique but the hazelnut Praliné bars are award-winning. But that’s not it! The Blood Orange Bar, Black Sesame Caramel Bon Bon and Bronze for the Hazelnut Bon Bon are also award-winning chocolates.

The best celebrations start and end with chocolate. So why not make it artisan chocolate. Don’t kill your taste buds with chocolate filled with sugar. So glad, there are so many option in LA for artisan chocolate.

Literally just an appreciation post for WFH suit a Literally just an appreciation post for WFH suit and heels (matching sets and fluffy slippers). This is my current petite fashion situation. 

When I found out I can work from home, I thought I would get dressed up every day in petite fashion but then I got real. 

With all the struggles of working from home and meeting deadlines, I just want to be comfy and cozy while sitting behind that laptop for 10 hours. 

How about you?

What did you learn this week? This is a question w What did you learn this week? This is a question we answer at the Shabbat dinner table on Friday nights and I love bringing the idea to this platform too. ⁣
⁣
⁣
This week I learned: ⁣
⁣
•I can bake cookies (see latest REELS) 🍪 ⁣
⁣
•Going Live on IG gets easier with practice and isn’t as terrifyingly I thought 💭 ⁣(see IGTV) ⁣
⁣
•The “Magic Formula” is not attainable 🪄 ⁣
⁣
I keep hearing on Clubhouse that Instagram shared with a few mega influencers or at an Instagram Mastermind: how to grow on Instagram aka the “Magic Formula”. I didn’t hear it on @instagram so idk how true this is but basically The Magic Formula is a weekly posting schedule (swipe right to see) that Instagram suggests to grow your account. I wanted to share and get your thoughts on it. IMHO it’s not attainable (especially if you work FT) and not worth the anxiety of posting that many times. It might work if you’re a full time content creator. If you do try it, share the results with us. ⁣
