West Didsbury - Cocoa Cabana

I've already included several very good chocolate shops in this blog. Sarah Gallacher's Cocoa Cabana, which is situated just down the road from Manchester's Metrolink station on Burton Road, is one of the best. 
It's a bit like going round to a friend's house, 
a friend who knows rather a lot about chocolates, and is very good at making them!

Sarah trained at Slattery's patisserie in Whitefield, and opened her shop in West Didsbury nearly two years ago.
You can have ten different sorts of hot chocolate here, how about an Aztec Dark - made with Madagascan dark 69% chocolate, chilli, cinnamon, and nutmeg?  

Coffee lovers are also very well catered for, as the coffee comes from Has Bean - who supply me with coffee every week.  You can also have a cake, like one of these brownies:
They also have a very good reputation for afternoon tea, which can come served with iced cocoa mint tea.

It's one of a handful of places in the UK where you can buy Dandelion Chocolate, an artisan bean-to-bar chocolate factory in San Francisco.
The hardest thing here is deciding what to have in your box.  Maybe a Pimms truffle?  Our family particularly liked the lime fondants and the Guild of Fine Foods Gold award winning salted caramel truffles, - but we think you should try them all!
