Q:
Do you make Christmas cookies?
A:
We haven't made cookies specifically for Christmas in the past, but making ourselves shortbread cookies with holiday shapes and decoration is something that we are considering. Would you like us to let you know should we be decide to so?

Beautiful store set up here at Patricia's chocolate. They have an amazing display of all their delightfully decorated chocolates. I honestly would have bought one of each if I could afford it. The staff is still masked up which is a positive. If you are in the Grand Haven area, I'd highly recommend checking out this super cute chocolate shop. They try their best to source local from the farmers market when they can, even freezing some of the fruit and get mint from the owners garden. Supporting this business is truly supporting local because you are supporting their business along with other local businesses. One of their business mottos is "customers come in happy, leave happier, and share the joy" which is honestly a great way to run any business. They make their chocolates flat as well, making it easy to share the joy of chocolate.

Truly a five star shop when it comes to service and flavor. Another win in Grand Haven! Quite the town it is.
We were warmly greeted and given the tour and background on the chocolates. All chocolates are made in house and all natural. The variety is endless and the staff helps guide you on popular flavors and what they recommend. We got a Bourbon Maple, Salted Butter Caramel, 68% chocolate, blue cheese and fig, and a couple others. UNREAL! So unique. So flavorful and very fairly priced. We also got some bagged goodies. It's so hard to narrow down what to choose because you truly want one of everything. The cash register is also dangerous because there's more caramels and cookies to choose from! Last minute we got 4 caramels for $5 and two cookies- Speculoos and Almond. Wow!! Again, five stars and an absolute must when you're visiting!
Last thing I'll say is it really does give you the feeling that you're in a small Parisian shop. I felt like we transported once we walked in. As we checked out, our chocolate was so carefully wrapped and presented.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

Excellent chocolate and beautiful and creative place. They did boxes of chocolate for my daughters wedding. They were so memorable. Such great people to work with.

Wow, what an adorable little gem right in the middle of Grand Haven. The store is clean and inviting. The chocolate is truly the very best I've ever had; and pairs phenomenally with wine. The flavors and textures are what chocolate should be and the staff is so so friendly. I stopped while on vacation and made a point to go to them the day I left just so I could load up. I never knew how well chocolate paired with wine until I got the right chocolate. 10/10 recommend.

Chocolate to die for, and if I don't stop I may. Hours are sometimes weird so check website . Plenty of options but favorite is the Arabica coffee

If you desire the best chocolate ever look no further. The employees are always so sweet (pun intended) and they truly care about making it a luxury experience. The time they spend to wrap up your purchase plus the adorable bag it all came in, this stuff adds such a lovely personal touch. I should now mention, my eyes roll back into my head every bite I take. You must have the Michigan cherry truffle. Oh by the way, the bite size cookies? They'll send you right to heaven. Whoever Patrica is I owe her a kiss.

Just tried the Madame Benson Bar in white chocolate... mmm divine!!! Think individual fruit and nuts precisely place on each square with a lightly salted base. Your taste buds will be relaying it's approval! Nice job
Update: 9/21/19
I'm craving another Madame Benson bar!
It's a beautiful day in Grand Haven today, if you have nothing else to do and are in the area, I have some ideas... Breakfast at Stanz or Morningstar on Washington or Lunch at Paisley Pig (be sure to try the Duck and Waffles). Patricia's opens at 11a. Then find your way to the Paris of the MidWest, Patricia's Chocolates. Let them take you on a chocolate voyage...!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Sep 16, 2019Previous reviewJust tried the Madame Benson Bar in white chocolate... mmm divine!!!

Nov 1, 2016Previous reviewThis is the best chocolatier in Michigan. I am a regular customer, and the other local chocolatiers pale in comparison. They use fresh Michigan grown ingredients and will let you sample.
I keep a selection of Michigan bars at home so I can place them as gifts for guests. - Jul 30, 2017
Really nice place to buy chocolates, and they'll let you sample as many as you want, too, albeit in very small sampling sizes (1/12 of a piece).
We spent a bit of time here this weekend, and the shopkeeper told us a little about certain chocolates they sell. I ended up buying a 2 pack, for about $5.20, as well as some chocolate-covered grapefruit peels. They also have macarons from Le Bon Macaron, in Grand Rapids, and all sorts of delicious chocolate that would make great gifts.
They also wrap up your purchases very nicely, even if you're not buying it as a gift. Nice shop and I'll be back next time I'm in town.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
