Coracao Confections

The sugar free chocolate tastes very sweet. It says 0g sugar on the ingredients list. I have several friends tried that, they all thought it was very sweet. We have sugar free chocolate bars from other brands, which tastes much better. In addition, the quality of chocolate is not high. The price is not expensive. Overall, you get what you paid for. I regretted spending more than 70$ to purchase their products mostly based on reviews from their website, for the first time.

PLEASE NOTE: This was for nationwide shipping.I decided to treat myself to a box of chocolates, and it came with:- Tangerine Fudge Truffles- After Dark Truffles- Strawberry Coconut Cups- Lemon Caramel Cups- Berkley Bar (nougat with blended cashew butter caramel and crunchy, salty sprouted almonds)- a Salted Caramel Egg- an Almond Butter Egg- a Superberry Egg- Raspberry Fudge Truffles- Hazelnut Cream Hearts- an Almond Butter CupIt was a good selection of a variety of both flavors and textures. The stand-outs for us were the Berkley Bar (which we didn't think we were going to like, but it was an delightful surprise each and every bite), the Hazelnut Cream Heart (if you love the iconic chocolate-hazelnut pairing, this will be a winner!), and the Raspberry Fudge Truffle (the tartness of the berry cut through the density and heaviness of the chocolate). The others though? Not for us, and I think that's mostly because the layer of chocolate surrounding the fillings was SO thick. It also, at times, almost seemed flavorless: like, I knew I was eating chocolate, but it just didn't taste like it (if that makes sense). For me, the Tangerine Fudge Truffle and the Lemon Caramel Cup weren't citrussy enough either.At this time, I personally wouldn't necessarily re-order from Coracao, and that's only because I have a few chocolatiers I'm pretty loyal to (Lagusta's in NY, Missionary in OR, Bixby in ME). However, if you're looking for a beautiful (in packaging, in presentation) and thoughtful (vegan, organic, fair trade, soy free, gluten-free) gift to give someone? You really couldn't go wrong with a box from Coracao (and, as of writing this, orders $60+ enjoy free shipping)!

We got a box of 6 Spring Collection chocolates at the grocery store. The flavors sounded amazing. But the chocolate itself is unpleasant and bitter, and I'm a dark chocolate lover. The chocolate flavor was just off and quite unpleasant unfortunately, which is hard to do with a box of chocolates! Will not be getting these again.

All around excellent! My daughter who is both vegan and gluten free was so impressed that I sent her a gift of these chocolates and cocoa- she said they are "Devine"! Customer service, communication and timely shipping was perfect! Thanks so much, you have new very happy customers!

Decent product once you get it, but they ship via US Postal Service and orders do not arrive on time and at times not in very good condition.

Yesterday I picked up a 2 oz. package of their salted caramels at the little Colusa Market when I was buying produce. It was at the checkout counter and I couldn't resist its dark chocolate allure. I didn't notice how much the package cost. It contained two bars, 81% chocolate, vegan, organic and sustainably sourced, the cacao Fair Traded. Each bar was 150 calories. I had one bar yesterday and the other today. They were delicious, a wonderful, relatively healthy indulgence. The chocolate had a good bite and rich taste complemented by the whipped cashew butter salted caramel. It was really good.

This review is for an online chocolatier whose confections can be found at several stores and farmers markets around the city. Having gone vegan recently, I craved chocolate and have tried every option available from No Whey to Milkless to various brands at various stores until I came across this brand. No more dry chalkie taster or slight chalkie taster or over sweet. This is a chocolate lovers dream , like a vegan Godiva and absolutely unbelievable. They are truly the best dark chocolate you will ever eat, silky, perfectly sweetened and beautiful simple combinations like caramel, rose, raspberry, truffle chocolate , mint etc . I live in Seattle and would really love it if the vegan shops here carry this candy. I ordered it online and got it shipped . It arrived perfectly packaged and fresh as ever. The chocolates lasts 6 Months so don't overdo it. I highly recommend this place!

We have been ordering chocolates from here for several months now and it is really great. It is nice to have a vegan option for the truffles and filled chocolates. If you are in the bay area and use the default shipping option, the chocolate will arrive the day after they ship it.

I tried two brands of vegan chocolates prior to continuing my experimentation with these. The other two were vastly superior in taste and texture. There's a nice variety offered, but, unlike those from the other companies, these don't particularly taste like chocolates, or good. In fact, they leave a funny aftertaste and mild burning sensation.
