A little over a year ago I was down in the Carmel/Monterey area on business. I happened to stop by a very nice shopping area called The Barnyard. They have a great assortment of stores, varying from dress shops, jewelry stores, restaurants and even a...bike shop. Being in the area again, this last weekend, I had to stop by and make another visit. Hidden away in this little place is one of the most delightful candy stores in the entire area. To call it just a candy store is actually a misquote. It’s more like it’s name “A piece of Heaven”. I myself am not a chocoholic. My wife on the other hand, really knows her stuff on the subject. All of their chocolates are made on the premises. I am partial to the chocolate covered orange peel, but everything from the truffles to the marshmallows are a delight. You would do yourself a disservice by missing the opportunity to stop here. It’s a locally owned family business and either Peg or Bob Whitted will be more than happy to sell you something or just talk. They genuinely care about their clientele and show an interest in where you’re from and what brought you to Monterey. This place is a true Chocolaterie in every sense of the word. This is only the second time that I’ve been here… it will not be the last.More
