About

État de Choc specializes in the precise craft of bean-to-bar chocolate production, emphasizing the distinct terroir of various cacao origins. The facility functions as both a laboratory and a boutique, where raw cacao beans undergo meticulous roasting, winnowing, and stone grinding. The resulting bars and confections highlight the natural complexity of the cacao fruit, often incorporating unconventional infusions and technical precision. Patrons encounter a wide array of single-origin chocolates that prioritize purity and flavor clarity over processed additives. The space showcases the industrial elegance of cocoa processing equipment alongside finished products ready for retail. Every item manufactured here adheres to rigorous standards of chocolate making that respect the biological integrity of the bean. This focused approach ensures that each offering provides a transparent connection between the agricultural source and the final consumer experience.

Lovely lovely spot.

I love the selection of flavours & quality of chocolate here. The banane chocolate was unique (although I did not like it, my family raved about it). Other wacky flavours include durian & soymilk.

The staff are super friendly & willing to help. I was honestly so impressed with their customer service.

The prices here are definitely on the premium side, so definitely a good spot for gift hunting. I spent a solid $400 during my one visit (worth it & will be back!).

Fantastic chocolate shop! État de choc has a wonderful selection of artisanal bars. I highly recommend picking up the Soma Crazy 88 dark chocolate tablet if you love intense, complex flavors. The shop is beautiful, & the staff is very helpful. A must-visit in Montreal. Also there are in-house chocolates to die for, like the crunchy caramel if you are looking for a sweeter treat but watch out it's sooo good you might not be able to stop eating it.
