NEW YORK- In the heart of New York's West Village sits a small storefront that has started a mini-revolution among chocolate lovers. Chocolate Bar, a cozy but cosmopolitan sweet ship has broken chocolate out of its stuffy Valentine mold and inspired the notion that this cherished treat can be fun, unfussy and possess more than a dash of decadence. Fully devoted to reviving the nostalgia-influenced confections that once graced the tables of the World's Fair, Automats, Boardwalks and dime-store candy shops, carnivals and diners of yesteryear, Chocolate Bar continues to churn out retro-reconfigured favorites using only the freshest ingredients and highest quality. This holiday season , the future is now and chocolate is the life of the party! Not a substance to be treated with reserve, it's a slightly sweet-bitter-caffeinated, completely legal party enhancer. It's serious brew. All aspects of youth culture, from punk rock to mod fashion, luxury and graphic design are prevalent in this season's provocative collection. At Chocolate Bar, the world of cosmopolitan cocoa is filled with swinging sugar soiree's and perfect chocolate martini's. Winner of 2 Citysearch 2005 Awards including "Best West Village Shopping" and "Best Gourmet Store", the 2004 TimeOut New York Eat Out Award for "Best Chocolate Store" and declared the "Sweetest of the Sweet" by the NY Daily News as the winner in a blind taste test where ten holiday samplers were critiqued for presentation and taste by four top pastry chefs who rated the competition.
