Satisfying your sweet tooth is a necessity sometimes. And there’s nothing quite like a bite of moreish chocolate that just melts in your mouth. Ditch the supermarket for your next choccy haul. Brisbane has a selection of specialty chocolate ready for you to indulge in. Here’s a list of the best the city has to offer.
1. Mayfield Chocolates
Made local here in Brisbane, this specialty chocolate is a Belgium Gold Medal Winner, and rightly so. Their chocolate is smooth and delicious and the flavours are inspired by Australia. From both their Spring Hill and Paddington stores, you can buy boxes of quality chocolate for yourself, or as a gift.

2. Noosa Chocolate Factory
If chocolate-coated nuts are your go-to, look no further than Noosa Chocolate Factory. With two stores in the city — both on Adelaide Street — you can come in and choose from a huge range of chocolatey morsels. We recommend trying the chocolate-coated macadamias and almonds. They are delicious. Oh, and you have to try their hot chocolate. It’s a must!

3. Dello Mano
Located in Tattersall’s Arcade in the city, this chocolate haven is known for its hand-crafted brownies made from delicious Belgian chocolate. The brownies come in a variety of flavours, and there’s even a vegan one. Dello Mano also offers gourmet chocolates — fittingly called “little luxuries” — and bakes cakes to order!

4. Chocolate Moments
Describing themselves as a “revolving door of flavours” thanks to their seasonal, locally-sourced ingredients, Chocolate Moments is sure to create unforgettable memories for you and your sweetheart — or just for you, you may not want to share their tasty creations! Best of all, they have a cafĂ© so you can let your eyes and nose take the lead and spend a few moments surrounded by their incredible goodies!
đź“Ť42/60 Albert St, Albert Street, Brisbane CBD
5. Amy Sargeantson Chocolate Maker
An incredible variety of artisanal chocolates — from classics like coconut and peppermint, to more experimental like wasabi and chilli — chocolate-coated fruits and their cult-status brownies await every sweet lover out there at Amy Sargeantson’s. You can order online or, if it’s love at first sight for you, find them at the Rocklea Markets on Saturday mornings.
đź“Ť385 Sherwood Rd, Rocklea
6. Poppy’s Chocolate
Run by Lynda “Poppy” Pedder, this chocolate shop offers treats such as the Australia Bag, filled with traditional Aussie delights like lamingtons and pavlova pies, freeze-dried goodies that they make themselves, and mouth-watering pies — their Pistachio Dream Pie, in particular, is to die for. You can make googly eyes at these and more at their shop or order online!
đź“Ť5/2 Spanns Rd, Beenleigh
7. New Farm Confectionery
Chocolate-coated fruits, nuts, pretzels, rocky road, honeycomb… If you can think of something sweet, New Farm Confectionery makes it, and makes it well. If you’re not content with gifting chocolate — although it’s a classic for a reason — you can even make a date of it and take a chocolate workshop. DIY meets treat yourself!
đź“Ť16 Waterloo Street, Newstead
8. Chocolate Elements
Truffles, chocolates, plant-based gelato, and even a Scottish range including whisky and Irn-Bru truffles, as well as their signature — and risky — chocolate haggis, are just some of the things periodically on the table at Chocolate Elements. You can shop online or visit their store for their full variety as well as fun workshops!
đź“ŤGround Floor, 99 Melbourne Street, South Brisbane
9. 31 Degrees Custom Chocolates
Named after the working temperature for tempered dark couverture chocolate, this Woolloongabba spot has so many options that it even has one called “I just need a big pile of treats” for suprise-lovers or the easily overwhelmed. Their on-site location offers the opportunity to see into the kitchen and watch master chocolatiers at work, perhaps on one of their special Valentine’s day tasting boxes.
