Chocolate the way chocolate once used to be. Handcrafted, small batch, made with the richest, highest quality ingredients from an artisan chocolatier. Los Angeles-based Roma Chocolates brings it all back with her decadent concoctions, which feature ingredients that are as organic, local and fair trade as possible. Nuts, dairy, eggs and butter from local California farms and farmer's markets, Valhorna chocolate which is among the fair-trade chocolates that are developed into custom blends by hand by Roma herself. Roma's signature bar, the LA Luxe Bar, mixes this with scratch-made nougat and caramel topped with Maldon sea salt flakes from England, a favorite of chefs worldwide for its additive-free salt products. It's a slice of heaven.
