experience chocolate like you never have before
We are different from other chocolatiers.
When you walk into our shop, you won’t see any conveyor belts feeding chocolate into a machine — you’ll see our confectioners making the marshmallows, dipping the truffles and stirring the caramel — all by hand, right in front of you.
Everything is made from scratch, in small batches, with the finest all-natural ingredients and no artificial flavors, colors, preservatives or sweeteners. We hand-dip our confections – the extra time and care we give to this process produce a higher quality you’ll notice with your first bite. This is why, since 2008, Kakao has been named “Best Chocolate in St. Louis!”
Buy a single treat, an assortment of truffles and caramels, or a basket bursting with unique confections as a treat for yourself or a gift for someone else.

award-winning truffles
How do you like your truffle?
“magical” caramels
We cook the caramel to a specific temperature to get a perfect texture that’s not too gooey and not too chewy.
marshmallow pies
The pies feature layers of vanilla bean marshmallows, chocolate and Missouri pecans.
bacon pecan brittle
We’ve named our award-winning bacon pecan brittle “the big squeal.”
and, more, including our savory Clean Plate Pantry Sauces (made in small batches and so good you’ll want to clean your plate!).
