Tcho

Straight-up, artisanal chocolate defines Embarcadero's Tcho, a simple white warehouse on Pier 17 that creates remarkably tasty sweets. Nothing ganache-filled or gimmicky is offered: just bars, drinking chocolate, baking drops, and cacao nibs, all presented in colorful packages with bold typography (in other words, perfect for gift-giving.). The dark chocolates and one milk chocolate exemplify flavor profiles of citrus, fruit, nuts or classic bittersweet, and it's all achieved through the roasting and blending processes, without additional flavorings. Before buying, you can tour the factory and enjoy a complimentary, in-depth tasting of Tcho's treats, which often include organic ingredients from small-scale farmers and co-ops.
