Jimmie's Chocolates Cafe 47

It was almost too good to be true ! I really enjoyed the pecan cluster and my wife loved the coconut balls! They charge by the pound, so you can enjoy something yummy and not spend a ton of money. However, it's easy to load up the goodies so watch yourself!

A desire for a delicious cup of hot chocolate brought us to Jimmie's Chocolates. It started as a discussion a couple of days before our trip here today. Yesterday we bought William Sonoma's Classic Hot Chocolate but that is coming in the mail and my Mom is a chocoholic. We arrived at Cafe 47 which is the cafe that is located directly in front of Jimmie's Chocolates which says it is the oldest chocolatier in Florida having been established in 1947. First of all Jimmie's Hot Chocolate which is not made from a mix but with real chocolate was delicious. It helped that it was also hot chocolate drinking weather today. After taking countless photos inside while our hot chocolates were being freshly made, we paid for our hot beverages and milk chocolate reindeer for a friend, and headed outside. There are several outdoor eating areas that are connecting Jimmie's Chocolates and Cafe 47. They are quite unique and pleasant looking. However, considering the chill in the air today, we opted to sit inside our car on warm seats and sip our hot chocolate there under the circumstances. We would have chosen to eat at Cafe 47 after our dessert of hot chocolate but unfortunately it was closed. Please please check out the countless pictures of the inside of Jimmie's Chocolates. It looks like a circus like tent is pitched inside the place to me. Very festive. My Mom said it looked like a wrapped present. I think that is because she was hinting that she wanted her own private chocolate store for herself. It is good to have a dream. This place is absolutely charming and they have an endless variety of chocolates including mailable chocolate bars with birthday greetings, as well as other types of greetings. A more affordable chocolate present for my Mom.

The chocolates are amazing. Don't miss it if you are in Fort lauderdale.

It's a little pricey but definitely worth it! The cafe is definitely a must try! I've dined a couple times and ingredients were high quality. The sirloin burger was cooked perfectly med well and was extremely juicy. Go for lunch/dinner and stay for the dessert!

The chocolate is fresh and delicious. They had cute gift boxes and baskets. Always make a stop here when I'm in town!
