Ixcacao: Artisanal Chocolate

Can't say enough positive about this little chocolate shop near downtown El Paso. I stopped in because it was the wife's birthday the next day and I wanted to get her something unique. At first impression these chocolates are beautiful! I told the owner that they looked like something you would find on the high streets of Paris.A very large selection of one-of-a-kind flavors you wont find anywhere else, so don't be surprised to see tamarind, chamoy or cactus of something. I told the shopkeeper I would be back the next day on my way to the airport to pick up a box. My travel plans changed that afternoon and it was 4:55pm (closes 5pm) and I called and asked if they could stay open another 10mins until I could get these. They happily obliged me and I was able to grab the chocolates for my wife on my way to the airport the same day.Definitely check this place out. Again, the chocolates are beautiful, you will not regret at least stopping by to see artistry in action and grab 2-3.I think a box of 24 was $45, which is by all means NOT expensive for the quality you are getting.

Fun place to go if you're looking for a nice sweet gift or have a craving for some no-so-typical chocolate options. Purchased the two dozen option for $45 and the pack again was very nice, almost as nice as the beautiful presentation of each of the chocolates. I'd recommend dropping by to experience the shop yourself. So many different options to choose from with so many different flavors and designs.

- Tried their box of 6 chocolates and it is priced at 20$. - Very small place with no indoor seating option , however very clean and brand new looking. - Tried the Guava, 85% cacao, tequila & hibiscus, sotol & pecan, Mexican eggnog and kahlua & Mexican caramel. - Very good flavors! I liked the Guava and the 85% cacao the most, they had a rich flavor. All the other chocolates had great flavor too.- Chocolates are very light and not filling.- Also got a chance to try the mazapan chocolate bar which had filling of mazapán in between Chocolate layers; very good flavor.Overall very elegant place however, it is on the pricey side.

I loved the chocolate skull I received as a gift from here. Great work and delicious.

Stopped in to check out the place (haven't been in since previous chocolatier was there) and wow totally changed not a bad thing just not the warm inviting place I was used to. However very clean very industrial feel to it, the new owner however was very nice and welcoming she was very quick to tell us about her chocolates she even gave my husband and I a sample to share. The piece I tried was very good so we bought the six pack (which is $20), the price isn't bad considering chocolates are hand painted and very individual and although I did like the sample she gave me some of my own picks were less than tasty, let me add first though I'm not a fan of dark chocolate so if you do like it then this place might just be for you. Either way give it a try have an open mind and I hope this review helps.

This is awesome and beautiful chocolate. What a great gift! Best ever! It's so delicious. Every piece is hand crafted. Artistic delight.

What a spot! The new shop is beautiful, airy, refreshing and well branded. It's an experience just walking in. Their product of creatively designed, handcrafted, and delicious chocolates is unmatched. If you're looking for a gift to a loved one, this is it! Well worth the price for melt in your mouth, smooth elegance. Thank you for the magic. We will be back!

We found out about this place from an article online. They have beautifully crafted chocolates, and they are known for using real cacao. Most of their chocolates are vegan, except for one that the staff member mentioned to me during our visit. For a set of 24 chocolates, we paid $45.00. Every set comes in a special box and you may choose your flavors. My only complaint was that they are low stocked on their chocolates. When we went, they didn't have many flavors available. The staff member allowed us to purchase a box that was ordered by someone else but was never picked up.

Chocolate heaven... hands down. The handmade artisanal chocolate is unique and top notch. Perfectly paired with their great variety of wine or champagne

These chocolates are amazing. The lady at the counter only spoke Spanish, I unfortunately do not & I still had great service & experience. Would 10/10 recommend their chocolates
