Master Pastry Chef Jacques Torres is known in the New York City culinary world as "Mr. Chocolate," and it only takes a visit to his flagship Chocolate Factory in SoHo ot understand why. The rich aroma wafting from around the corner draws people in, where patrons are first treated to a feast for the eyes! Behold, chocolates piled high on every surface!

Pop into this decadent chocolate shop for indulgences including chocolate truffles, flavored chocolate bars, and seasonal gifts including whimsical Easter bunnies and some of the most decadent chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies we've ever had.

Need another reason to pop into this Hudson Square / Soho location? Out of the brand's eight different locations in the city, this particular shop is a Travel Savvy 'top pick' due to the Choco-Story Museum, the niche attraction that Monsieur Torres has recenlty launched, dedicated to the history of chocolate. Guests can immerse themselves into a chocolate journey that begins 3,500 years ago in Central America, tasting samples and sipping Mayan hot chocolate along the way.

Everyone knows that chocolate is good for you! Doctors and nutritionists say that the components in this sweet treat can lower stress, elevate mood, and even help keep your heart healthy. On top of that, gifting friends and loved ones a box of cocoa creations is always a good idea for any holiday, all year round -- from Valentine's Day to Easter, Mother's Day to Thanksgiving. In New York City, chocolatiers from near and far have brought their talent to the Big Apple, and that means that locals and tourists alike can pop in and indulge their cravings every day of the week!
