The chocolate-based desserts are endless, and there’s also an entire section of the menu dedicated to chocolate drinks, including their signature Spanish Thick Chocolate, which is supposedly as thick as pudding. In addition to everything chocolate, Chu Chocolate Bar & Café has an extensive selection of both breakfast and brunch options at both of their branches, with international items including their tasty sourdough bruschetta with mushroom and ricotta. Equipped with desserts, salads, paninis, pasta, seafood and more, Chu Chocolate Bar & Café will surely not disappoint.

Teuscher Chocolates of Switzerland has some of the best chocolate in the world: National Geographic’s Intelligent Travel in 2012 says so. That being said, it is hard to disagree with the award for the best chocolate in the world after trying one of this dessert shop’s savoury sweets. This world-famous chocolate shop made their way to Bangkok on May 8, 2014, and the shop resides on the third floor of Central Embassy. Their hand-crafted, Swiss-made chocolates are made with hundreds of different combinations of recipes, passed down from one Teuscher generation to another.

5. Ampersand Boutique

Cafe, American, Italian

Serving up the most mouthwatering gelato and sorbets in Bangkok is Ampersand Boutique. Chocolate lovers will find this boutique sweet shop on the 7th floor of Central World, with a new branch to open soon on Thonglor 13. The icy treats found at both locations are made in small batches and without the use of preservatives, thus preserving their organic flavor. Whether those with a sweet tooth want something more simple like the Belgian-inspired dark chocolate or something a bit more colorful and unique like the maple syrup and candied bacon, there is a sweet for everyone at Ampersand Boutique.

6. Gallothai

Cafe, Thai, Coffee

Those in Thailand no longer have to make their way to Europe to have some of the best Belgian chocolate around. Paul Graindorge, founder of Gallothai, decided the Land of Smiles had gone long enough without having the noteworthy treats on their own soil, thus this chocolate shop came to be in 1993. The chocolate shop has grown exponentially, with stores in major cities across Thailand, including the capital, Phuket, Pattaya, and all the way up in Chiang Mai. Gallothai products are now found in a number of different restaurants and businesses, with popular favorites including pralines, truffles, chocolate covered nuts, fruits and many more.
