I get quite a few questions from hotel guests on where to purchase Swedish chocolates while in Stockholm. Thankfully, we have probably the most Swedish of chocolatiers just two blocks from the hotel...
Small Island Chocolates & Coffee. I say that it is the "most Swedish" as it is a Swedish company that run their own cocoa plantations in the Caribbean, one on Trinidad and the other one on Tobago. Apparently, they are the only Swedish cocoa growers.
Their chocolates have won several prestigious awards, including the gold medal at this year's
Academy of Chocolates. These make a great and unique souvenir to bring home from Sweden... or if you just want to treat yourself to some great chocolates! Besides their own chocolates, they also have chocolates and cocoa products from around the world for sale in the boutique. They even have other Caribbean products for sale, like coffee, spices and local
"jerk" seasonings and sauces.
Small Island Chocolates & Coffee also provides chocolate and chocolate/rum tastings. If you are staying at the
Hotel Rival, contact me directly for more information about the tastings. And speaking of the hotel...
Small Island is located just two blocks away. Easy to pop over and browse through their boutique. Contact me also if you are looking for other chocolate/sweets options.
