text: For those in the know the chocolate tree has been an online business for quite some time but decided to open up their own shop in our very own city Edinburgh If you like chocolate you will LOVE The Chocolate Tree Located in the trendy Bruntsfield area it is in the perfect position to sit in and gorge or sit out and gorge Their chocolates are all organic so at least your conscious feels good about eating copious amounts of chocolatennThe decor is very chic trendy and indulgent Indeed I think Indulgence is a theme in the cafe My first visit was under sad circumstances recently single and feeling vulnerable my friend took me and ordered me the Spanish Hot Chocolate see picture Oh My God Where I was feeling despairing distraught and dismayed I was overcome with delight deliriousness and felt thoroughly delectable It was perfectperhaps a bit rich but the first few sips were to die for It even came with a little dough cakething to dip into the thick gloopy chocolate like fondue It would have been ideal for two to sharennTo be honest I am not what you would call a chocaholic especially now that Cadburys is no longer considered chocolate But there is something for everyone to enjoy whether its a slice of their GLORIOUS chocolate cake it was delicious after a while I felt I should find a mirror to check if my pupils had dilated or one of their mini chocolate bitesnnIf you cannot make it to the shop they sell online and they are much cheaper than their competition it is one of their ethical principles woohoo It really is worth visiting on a warm summer day to lounge and indulge yourself or on a cold winter evening to keep yourself warm It is the sort of place I imagine Harry Potter would sit in
