Chocolat by Adam Turoni

Stopped into Chocolat by Aadm Turoni and feel it imperative to point out that your experience will be determined by your taste of the chocolates versus your vision of Adam as an artist. The shop is truly an artists statement, from the fake golf grass on the floor to the antique furniture statement pieces pilled with silver dishes and filled with chocolates. And don’t forget to look up, you’re surrounded by crown-​molding ceilings filled with empty (and some full) gold– painted picture frames. Stopping into the shop, I was immediately drawn to the handmade chocolate peanut butter cups (filled with homemade peanut butter). We ordered two, a dark chocolate and milk chocolate cup and sat at the «bar» seats (four) with a view into the ‘chocolate kitchen’ (which was not undergoing any operations at the time).
Customer service was fantastic, something I noticed overall across the board in Savannah. And while the chocolates were lovely to look at, the flavor was unexpectedly lacking and pretty average for anyone trying to make a homemade peanut butter cup. I know Adam Turoni has a creative and artistic mind, you can see that all through the shop, he is an artists. But from my tasting experience, the flavor of his chocolates isn’t quite there.

Beautiful, classy chocolatier! We were recommended to go here by the Savannah Bee Company that we had recently visited. They use the honey that is made locally for some of their chocolates. The place is absolutely beautiful, i just couldn’t stop snapping pictures away while I was there. The chocolate is displayed on a large table with chandelier above it as well as beautiful china armoires. The whole experience of selecting your chocolate and place it on a tray is very over the top, but so much fun. While we were shopping and selecting our chocolate pieces, you could see a girl behind glass windows making the chocolate at that moment. The prices were good for the quality of the chocolate and when I was there, they were running a Unilocal discount, where you got 1 free chocolate with the purchase of another.
Completely recommend this to everyone who is the area or visiting. Great tasting chocolate with a beautiful store to see. P. S. the chocolate with the honey was extremely tasty and I completely recommend that as one of your choices!

What an awesome concept with fabulous chocolate! We went to the location on Bull St which was the «chocolate library» room. You use a card catalogue tray to put your choices on that you select from the chocolates displayed within the book shelves. Books and chocolate, a match made in heaven!

Patrick was so helpful and friendly. He’s the reason we shop here… And the great chocolate if course!

The store is absolutely beautiful. Set up like a library. Chocolates are displayed in cases. Service here is impeccable and the Habanero Caramel Truffle is a must. I bought several chocolates which were all amazing.
f you love exotic chocolate creations then you have to stop by.

Four stars for creative and delicious chocolates in a lovely store.
We learned about this shop from the Savannah Bee Company. We tried a small bite of his chocolate as part of the Meade tasting. The employees enthusiastically recommended that we stop by the shop.
The store is very charming, but very small. There’s green carpet on the floor that’s very thick, and it adds a cool element to the experience. My only concern with this was that the carpet was not laid very well near the entrance and kind of detracted from the look.
The chocolates are displayed in antique furniture: a book case, dresser, etc. This looks lovely and adds another piece to the experience. You get to open the cases yourself and select your truffle with little silver tongs.
Overall, the chocolates are all exquisite and you won’t regret visiting.

The BEST piece of candy I’ve ever had! It was a crème’ brûlée something that they torched after I purchased it, $ 3.50 a piece, but so worth it! WOW WOW WOW! Amazing.

This small shop offers a wide variety of flavors and shapes of chocolates. It has a grassy looking rug that makes you feel like you’re walking in a garden. The candies are in drawers and cupboards and several tables. They are gourmet and beautiful. I stocked up on my road trip for gifts. My family loved the truffles. Some look like metallic statues! Really amazing. The women in the shop were friendly.

Great chocolates that are handmade in the shop. You can spend time watching them make their gorgeous confections. We loved the chocolate covered orange peel and the dark truffles. But everything looked delicious. And the packaging and shop décor enhanced our experience.

I visited the Broughton St. location, but I was a fan well before they had a store. I remember trying pieces out at the Farmer’s Market. Just a suggestion: a lot of our new and wonderful stores get their start there.
What I love most about this store and company is their attention to detail. Each chocolate is a wonder just to behold, let alone eat.
You can pick up a tray and create a little box for yourself, or go prepackaged. Whatever you decide, they’ll give you a little cool pack to keep your yummies from melting.
My most recent time, I had the honey infused chocolate with the bee and gold brushed detail. It was lovely to look at, but even better when I decided to go ahead and eat it.
Don’t forget to check in. If you buy two chocolates, they’ll give you a third free.

The whole experience and chocolate designs are worth visiting this place!
Walked in and was greeted and asked if we have been here before, so she gave us a little rundown on how it works and what to do. You basically get a silver tray, located at the top of the display cabinets, then use the tongs to pick out which chocolates you want to purchase. Then you pay for them and you can eat at their granite table that has about 2 – 3 chairs.
We got the Silver Bullet: Dark chocolate center infused with vanilla, coconut oil, and finished with silver luster dust. Loved this piece! You can really taste the coconut and vanilla and nothing overpowered the other. Loved the design!
Passion Fruit truffle: White chocolate ganache infused with passion fruit in a hard shell. This was our favorite! The passion fruit was perfectly infused with the white chocolate and the design of this piece was outstanding!
Mint Julip Truffle: had a dark chocolate cylinder cup with a mint liquid inside which was great! And it was topped with candied mint leaf which was amazing!
Packaged chocolate covered graham crackers: the dark chocolate had orange infused flavor, which I wasn’t a fan of at all. The milk chocolate was better, but overall I couldn’t taste the graham cracker flavor, it was more just like eating a bar of chocolate.
I would definitely recommend stopping in and trying this place out! I wanted to buy more pieces as everything looked good, but it is on the pricey side, which was totally expected, and still worth it!
Side note: There was an employee working on her computer with loads of paperwork on the granite countertop where customers eat, which was a little weird because it was in the way of customers, I wonder if there was room in the back of the store for store paperwork/​employees to work?
Tip to Owner: Water would have definitely be nice on a hot day and to quench your thirst after eating the chocolate.

At the savannah farmers market and stopped by and picked up a mint julep!!! Oh my how fabulous.
Amazing girl selling the chocolates so nice and frienldy.

I should probably mention that I didn’t actually eat any of the chocolate here. This review is for those with social anxiety who need a little help navigating this place.
I was expecting a See’s Candy kind of experience — where you know what you’re getting and it’s like ice cream only chocolate. Not so here.
I’m not sure if it’s a custom somewhere else — would be interesting to find out — but the chocolate pieces are in formal cabinetry on the sides. The lady behind the glass — who is either pretending to make chocolate or is actually making it — will provide you with tongs if you are confused, and you put the chocolate on a platter and then she puts it in a bag for you. The chocolate takes on interesting shapes — lions and what not and has crests and flourishes. No answers as to why there. I just wanted to binge on chocolate after a cup of hot chocolate — is that so hard/​wrong?
Adam Turoni wasn’t around.
Damn you Hollywood, specifically Willie Wonka and Chocolat, for making us think that these places should have charm to them! It did, but it was like an East coast indie bookstore with so much of its own personality it confused me.
That being said, my friend seemed to enjoy her chocolate treats. At $ 2.75 a pop. I definitely was tempted by the nipples-​of-​venus-​looking treats.

Cool, upscale (read: pricey) chocolate place that does some novel items – hadn’t seen their honey-​infused products before. I enjoyed the items that I got from there, and would go back again.

This wonderful store was my favorite find on my weekend trip to Savannah.
Adam himself was there making chocolates when we arrived there late Sunday afternoon. He is a great guy, and amazing chocolates.
Definitely recommend stopping by this great little store.

Happened upon this place while out shopping downtown today. We did not know what to expect, but it turned out to be a very good surprise. All of the chocolate is handmade in house– and it’s super fancy ;)
We enjoyed browsing around the tiny shop and reading all of the different descriptions of the truffles. We ended up purchasing two packaged items instead, and we loved them both.
Everything is kind of pricy, but I would argue that it is worth the experience.

This is lovely little store — it’s nicely styled and open so that you can see what they’re making behind the counter.
The service was friendly and the chocolate itself was good. Any place with weird or exotic flavors gets major points from me — here it was a balance of safer, more traditional chocolate with a few interesting things — I couldn’t resist habanero caramel but unfortunately, the most intriguing piece (cherry) had a sign that said «back in 20 days» — and we were only in town for 4 days.
The best piece was the silver truffle, with a smooth vanilla and coconut inside. Peanut butter cup was just okay and while I was really excited to see orange peels, I didn’t love them. Too much chocolate, not enough peel.

This place was fun and adorable! It was a crazy hot afternoon and we enjoyed a couple of pieces of chocolate in their delicious smelling shop while watching the chocolatiers work away.
Everything was delicious. Why the 3 stars, you ask? If it’s a billion degrees outside please have like little cups of water or something. Please please please. I’m begging. Or a water fountain. Or a trough.

I booked marked this place a few months ago.
I was near the shop and told my husband lets go. I knew when I entered it was going to be a good time. You could smell the chocolate when you walked in; FRESH.
All the truffles are in cabinets. You pick up a silver tray and use tongs to pick out your choice of goodies. Plus if you are going to do more shopping they have complimentary ice packs to put your chocolate in. Now that is marvelous.
My favorite was the milk chocolate peanut butter cup. I just kept saying to my husband «man this is so good» It made me sing Pharrell’s Happy.
I had been looking for Valrhona Cocoa powder for at least a year. It was in an old fashioned glass canning jar on the table. I picked up one and will be going back. There is a chocolate cake and brownie Lover at my place.
My husband wanted the solid dark chocolate truffles but they didn’t have any. I told him maybe next time they might have some.
Mr. Turoni could you make some for purist like my husband. I want him to «Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof. In the words of Pharrell so he can sing with me next time and be «Happy»

I’ve had Adam’s chocolates at events outside of his store. He makes everything in-​house and he is quite proud of his creations. He has some very unique flavor combinations. This visit was just a walk through. His shop has a cute little boutique style setup. You can even watch him making his treats when he’s there. Very pricey but worth splurging on a piece or two periodically.
