Thank you to everyone who ordered. Over 100 dozen strawberries will be going out Sunday! We are open to 2 customers at a time in the shop on Wednesday, but@getting your online order for I store or curbside pickup will help avoid the lineups. Just call when you get here! We are taking online orders for everything else. We are also getting filled up on deliveries, so if you are able to pickup at the shop on Friday or Saturdays, that will be much appreciated.

STARTING MONDAY FEB. 1 (yes, it’s already here!), our website will accept orders for chocolate-dipped strawberries. Since we will be preparing them through the night before Valentine’s Day, to ensure freshness, here are the deets: You can mix and match 4 different types of Belgian chocolate - dark, milk, white and caramel (caramelized white chocolate - sooo good!) Each order comes with a complimentary solid chocolate Cupid. You are welcome to add any other items from ...the website to your strawberry order Boxes may be picked up at our shop curbside (or in-store if the emergency order is lifted by then) or delivered ON FEB. 14th only We thank you in advance for flexibility: if you are picking up, will will contact you by email for your time window (requests for specific times will be attempted, but cannot be guaranteed).

In the immortal words of The Beatles - all you need is love. And these Ruby love bars may be just what you need to pamper that special someone (including yourself). I was initially skeptical, but this naturally-occurring pink chocolate is quite delicious! These big expressions of desire also come in milk, dark, white, caramel or dark with freeze-dried raspberries. #rubychocolate #love #valentinesday #ygk #ygkchocolate #chocolatewithlove #selfcare

Another beautiful gift idea for your Valentine, Galentine, Palentine (who am I kidding - just get it for yourself - I won’t tell).

Thank you to @festakitchen_gf for a beautiful and delicious charcuterie board (and some lovely cupcakes too!). Supporting and revelling in the talent of other small businesses makes me warm all over! #ilovelocal #charcuterie #ygk #love

Great food, decadent treats and succulents! Yet another way to say LOVE!!!

Wishing you and yours a calm Christmas and healthy New Year. I’m giving myself and the elves a much needed 2 week break. You can still find our chocolate treats @memorialmarket - make sure to shop the site between Dec. 29 and 31 to pick up your goods hassle-free on Jan. 3. The shop will reopen on Jan. 12 with seasonal chocolate treats at 50% off. Looking forward to seeing you in 2021! #chocolate #2021 #chocolatewithlove

We are fully stocked as we grow ever closer to Christmas Day. It has been a wild ride - one that has seen 1000 hot chocolate bombs go out the door, hundreds of boxes of chocolates ribboned and picked up or delivered to happily awaiting recipients and lovely, thoughtful gifts being shared with loved ones. Scroll through to see some of our gift selections including whimsical mugs from @laceandtwig, wood slice kits, coasters and wall art from @dragonfly.handmade and beautiful crafted wood bowls from the wood shop of Bill Corcoran. Come in and do any last minute shopping. We are open from 10-6 today and tomorrow! #chocolate #ygkchocolate #chocolatewithlove #christmaschocolate

A match made in heaven! Soft, fluffy hand-crafted peppermint marshmallows by @festakitchen_gf dipped in dark or milk chocolate. We are just releasing 90 pieces to see how you like them. Perfect in hot chocolate (add it to our hot chocolate bomb) or on its own. Way too good!!! Just ask for them - we will wrap them and conceal them cleverly in a paper bag so nobody will know... it’s our secret! Intro price of $2 apiece. #chocolatecoveredmarshmallows #marshmallows #chocolate #peppermint #chocolatewithlove #ygk #love

100 done...100 to go! Fine chocolate has taken the place of Christmas parties this year. We are still able to take orders of any size for all of your gift-giving needs! #giftideas #corporategifts #ygk #ygkchocolate #chocolate #chocolatewithlove

Something for the foodie in your life perhaps...

After some R & D to get the perfect hot chocolate bomb, we have redesigned this beauty so that it holds more Belgian chocolate and more marshmallows!! Those of you who used to love Cottage Confections will recognize this shape from their luscious cherry bombs. We are thrilled to offer these in milk or dark chocolate with a matching chocolate spoon. You can reserve your order by DM on Instagram or Facebook. We will have them in stock in the shop until December 24. Watch for new store hours starting in December too!!! #hotchocolatebombs #hotchocolate #chocolate #chocolatewithlove #stockingstuffers #Christmasgifts #ygk #ygkchocolate #love

So proud to be part of this box!!

The perfect gift!

The Advent calendars have arrived! In the interests of sustainability, this beauty is reusable! $45 this year, save it until next year, and return it for refill next year for $35. We will have only 50 available for preorder. Each day will have a different treat to look forward to!!! Order yours by DM on Instagram or Facebook. First 50 orders will be filled. If demand is high, we may be able to get more, thus after 50 there will be a waitlist. The calendars will be available for pickup by November 25th. #adventcalendar2020 #advent #chocolate #chocolatewithlove #love #ygk #ygkchocolate

It’s not too late to order this stunning local gift box!

CocoaBistro fans...hear this! I have listened, and have the perfectly portioned hot chocolate bombs for your gift giving (or self-indulgent) pleasure. Each ball contains dark Belgian chocolate powder and marshmallows, and they are accompanied by a solid dark Belgian chocolate spoon to mix right in or to munch on separately. All for $8! As this is a highly sought-after item, I will start stocking them in the store on Tuesday, November 10, and will take volume orders by phone at 613-453-8169 until it goes up on the website (cocoabistro.ca) sometime next week. #hotchocolatebombs #hotchocolate #chocolate #chocolatewithlove #ygk #ygkchocolate #love
