Made in celebration of Mothers’ Day, this article is a listicle on local independent chocolatiers in Texas.
May is here, which means we are well into spring – a season that symbolizes birth, life, and joy. It can be said that motherhood is, in no uncertain terms, the personification of all three of the above. So, it only feels right to celebrate our mothers during the spring season.
Before we begin, we need to state the obvious. Our moms deserve to be showered with love 24/7, 365 days a year. But when Mothers’ Day comes around, it’s the time to go all out with celebratory meals, fun family activities, and perhaps even a few prezzies.
Explore our Texas Mom Blog for a wealth of insights, tips, and inspiration covering everything from family-friendly recipes to parenting adventures in the Lone Star State.
Many of us look to the classics when purchasing a Mothers’ Day gift, and there’s nothing wrong with that! Personally, I love going for a laidback Mothers’ Day brunch at a local farm-to-table restaurant or receiving a bouquet of fresh seasonal flowers. And, of course, all moms (including myself) love to receive a special sweet something – in other words, chocolate (What wine goes well with chocolate?)!
This year, we’ve put together a list of the best Texas chocolatiers, where you can buy the perfect present for the mother figure in your life. We’re talking assortment boxes, gift baskets, fudges, truffles (What wine goes well with truffles?), and more. Whatever you’re looking for, these chocolate spots have you covered – let’s get started!
Kate Weiser Chocolate
Kate Weiser Chocolate makes impeccably handcrafted bonbons complete with divine fillings. Kate began her chocolate career as an Executive Chocolatier at Chocolate Secrets in Highland Park, Dallas. It was here that she began to experiment with chocolate making, and four years later, the curious chocolatier began her own chocolate company – Kate Weiser Chocolate. Originally located in Trinity Groves, the company has expanded to NorthPark Center and the Shops at Clearfork. For Mothers’ Day, Kate Weiser Chocolate is offering four wonderful collections. These chocolates are designed to impress, with colorful bonbon shells and delicious fillings such as pistachio peach, lavender apricot, and mango habanero.
