Hidden in the courtyard that also holds La Casa Sena, this tiny shop sells a variety of handcrafted chocolates that are as beautiful as they are delicious. Owner and self-taught chocolatier Hayward Simoneaux presides over such flavor combinations as spicy red chile with dark chocolate and silky dark chocolate with caramel and sea salt. He works with a paper artist on the packaging, so these tasty nibbles are a wonderful gift to bring home. The store also stocks other chocolate (deemed worthy enough) from around the world, as well as more whimsical Santa Fe products, including the artsy renditions of Pez dispensers by local folk artist Steve White.
