Red Hook has become the cool Brooklyn cousin that you want to hang out with because she's got a divine sense of style and always knows the best places. That's why you should hop on the G train and head to our newest obsession, Raaka Chocolate Factory. Founders Ryan Cheney and Nate Hodge process their small-batch cacao on-site, into flavorful and complex chocolate bars that showcase the bean's origin and terrior, a process that may take weeks and with exquisite results. Tours and classes are also offered; check their site for details.

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! Check out our favorite NYC chocolate shops here.
