Max Brenner - Boston (CLOSED)

This café chain is a dedicated chocolate boutique, a place where chocoholics try their favorite confections in any number of ways. Hot chocolate is made with milk, dark or white chocolates, and also in recipes that include caramel finished with whipped cream and sea salt; an infusion of peanut butter; spiced with red chili; dark chocolate done gianduja style with hazelnut flavoring; or with Oreo cookies blended with white chocolate, vanilla cream and topped with Oreo crumbs. All are served in Max Brenner’s bespoke hug mug, which shaped to be held in both hands, and hugged.
