small-batCH CHoCOLAte It’s easy to find good chocolate, but good local chocolate? And good, local, handmade chocolate? That’s another ballgame. With small-batch chocolates, you get brighter flavors, fewer processed ingredients and purer textures. One bite of something like Rick Jordan Honey Foam or a Kakao milk chocolate bar with toasted Missouri pecans, and the difference is clear. Whether you need something special for an upcoming holiday (cough, cough) or you just want to experience some of the terrific craftsmanship the St. Louis chocolate scene has to offer, here are some of our favorite small-batch chocolatiers.
