July 5 2024 update: It's World Chocolate Day this Sunday! In our books, it should be World Chocolate Day every day but we're certainly glad our favourite treat makers are celebrating with new and exclusive tasty creations designed just for us.
Koko Black have collaborated with Tarts Anon this year to dream up the chocolate-y tart of your dreams. It features seven layers of milky chocolate and silky honey cremeux, Tart’s Anons’ signature shortcut pastry, leatherwood honey caramel, moist peperkoek sponge and rich dark chocolate custard. As a final indulgence, a hidden chocolate surprise awaits beneath a mirror-like chocolate glaze adorned with gold cocoa nibs. Get it for $14 a slice for three days only, from Friday 5 to Sunday 7. Here's more information.
This artisan chocolatier is located in the historic Royal Arcade, and it's not out of the ordinary to find a line snaking out into Bourke Street to get inside Koko Black. Having mastered the fine art of European chocolate making, this luxury chocolate retailer sells everything from chocolate blocks and chocolate-coated roasted almonds, praline gift boxes and delicious hot chocolates. They make fabulous gifts for your friends and loved ones (or for yourself!).
