Step into Li-Lac Chocolates' storefront in West Village, and you will be struck by two, distinct sensations: first, the scrumptious smell of luxurious chocolates that overpowers the entire store and second, the charming, old-fashioned look of the store - from the display case to the signage - that excites the 7-year-old kid inside you.
As the oldest chocolate house in Manhattan, Li-Lac Chocolates has been delighting its customers with small batch, hand-made chocolates using original recipes since 1923. Forget those boring, plain chocolates - try these mouthwatering treats from Li-Lac that will turn everyone into a chocoholic!
If you like nuts...Almond Bark!
Every bite of the Almond Bark packs freshly-roasted almonds that are covered in your choice of dark, milk, white, or sugar-free chocolate. The crunchiness of the almonds pairs perfectly with the rich, creamy chocolate.
2. If you like dried fruit...Glace Lemon Peel!
The highest-quality candied lemon strips are covered in generous amount of dark chocolate to create a sweet, succulent treat. The tangy yet sweet flavor and chewy texture of the glazed lemon peel balances out the rich, creamy dark chocolate.
3. If you like mint...French Mint Bars!
Sandwiched in between two layers of dark chocolate is rich, creamy, and refreshing mint filling. Li-Lac Chocolates suggests pairing the French Mint Bars with a cup of coffee or tea to finish off your meal.
4. If you like creamy fillings... Chocolate Creams!
Whether it be butter, orange, raspberry, or vanilla flavored creams, each of the bite-sized Chocolate Creams is filled with a sweet surprise. If you look closely, you will notice a letter-coded top that indicates the type of filling. I personally like to be surprised because no matter what, you will enjoy the smooth, delicious filling with the intense dark chocolate.
5. If you like sweet and salty...Salted Caramels!
The heavenly square of Salted Caramels holds true and pure to its name. Chewy, fresh caramels are covered in milk or dark chocolate, and sprinkled with a diagonal row of sea salt. The Salted Caramels is the perfect treat to satisfy your sweet and salty cravings.
6. If you like peanut butter and jelly...PB&J Bars!
Relieve your favorite childhood memory of snacking on classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich with the PB&J Bars. Hidden beneath a layer of chocolate are creamy peanut butter and sweet raspberry jelly.
7. If you like coconut...Coconut Clusters!
Coconut lovers, rejoice. This intense cluster of soft and chewy toasted coconut flakes are bound by rich milk or dark chocolate to create a delectable treat. You may be asking for seconds...or even thirds.
8. If you like s'mores...All American Bars!
Li-Lac's take on s'mores is everything you have ever wanted. The fluffy, home-made marshmallow is sandwiched in between crispy honey graham crackers, and then covered in rich, creamy milk or dark chocolate. You get all the textures and flavors from this all-American treat! Now, all you need is a campfire...
