In Short
Gourmet confections from this famous Bay Area chocolatier grace the shelves of the small boutique near the Castro. Schmidt's signature clean lines and ornamental, sculpted shapes--fine chocolate bowls, leaves, large seasonal icons, and extraordinary flower bouquets--are on display, and most are for sale. At much sweeter prices are the signature truffles, bars, turtles, caramels, chocolate bars and other bon-bons, available in gift boxes or from behind the counter.

Known for his egg-shaped truffles, Joseph Schmidt Confections are fun, decadent and so very good. Truffle flavors are many, including the fun Cherry Bomb. And one is more than enough -- at least at one time. If you want a classic truffle, with a slightly new look -- you can find Joseph Schmidt Confections between the Castro and Noe Valley. It's just a quick walk from the J Church & 16th St. stop.

Joseph Schmidt has some of the very best high quality chocolates in the city. I love their truffles and the designs are just truly beautiful, and the taste is even better. They also sell gift boxes that are great gifts to friends, or even to yourself! I've read that they are now owned by Heresey's so let's hope quality doesn't fall.
