Under the Radar: Bond Street Chocolate
Maybe your mom told you this when you asked for your own bike instead of having to use your older brother’s old one; maybe your grandma told you this when she gave you her china, which you thought was lame, and now realize is totally sensational. Whatever the sitch, you’ve probably heard it: New is not always better. Sometimes rediscovering a classic can be just as exciting as stumbling on something you’ve never seen. Like finding your old flares and realizing they’re in again. Like using the backpack trend as an excuse to get your initials embroidered on an L.L.Bean. Like making out with the guy you used to smooch in high school. Okay. Maybe not. That can go either way.
Bond Street Chocolate is one of those classics that we’ve loved for a while, and never get sick of. A true, artisanal chocolate shop, Bond Street Chocolate makes their chocolates with love in flavors that range from classic to elegant to oh-so-fun. Think everything from milk chocolate with almonds and sea salt to chocolate covered corn nuts (YUM).
But what’s making us so excited about Bond Street right now? We’re loving their adorable designs that are really more chocolate sculptures than anything else: race cars and African masks, skulls, and especially the divine collection – gold or silver dusted figurines of Moses, Jesus, The Virgin of Guadalupe, Buddha, or Ganesh.

Fun, yummy, and unfussy: Bond Street Chocolate has everything you want. Can you say that for that guy you made out with in high school?
