Choco-Latte is possibly one of the smallest shops in Edinburgh and is just utterly bursting with character. Although it is small it makes use of every square inch. There is literally chocolate hanging from the rafters. Choco-latte wafts flavours and smells into the busy main South Clerk Street which is only a 5-10 minute walk from Edinburgh's famous Royal Mile.

You walk into the shop and it holds delights from your childhood right through to your most secret adult indulgencies. It has just about every type of sweets available. If your preference is old school mixtures then the cola bottles, fizzy flying saucers and jelly snakes are there for you to mix it up. However if you have a more sophisticated pallet then the most amazing Belgium chocolates and fine chocolate delicacies are almost overflowing on the shelves.

Choco-latte is famous in Edinburgh for its amazing muffins.... These huge mountains of muffins are lashed with chocolate and topped with an array of goodies from maltesers to truffles. The tray bake biscuits are not to be missed - there is nowhere they are made better.

The girls at Choco-latte also do special gifts for occasions... There are fabulous chocolate lollies that you can have special messages put on such as "Good luck in new job" or "Well done passing exams" - anything you wish really, the girls love making special discs for your own occasion.
