Led by master chocolatier Kay Thibodeaux, The Touring Chocolatier turns premium cacao into memorable adventures. Trained at Ecole Chocolat and mentored by award-winning chefs, Kay handcrafts every truffle, bonbon, and pastry with ...
Kay Thibodeaux's chocolate shop has earned a devoted following for her Belgian-style truffles, bonbons, and chocolate-covered strawberries that clearly stand apart from grocery store options. Customers rave about the quality and artistry, with flavors ranging from hazelnut and passion fruit to creative options like piña colada. The shop handles custom orders beautifully, with multiple mentions of perfectly executed gift baskets and dessert table items for special events. Kay's responsive customer service shines through, especially for out-of-state orders requiring coordination. The main heads-up is pricing. Several reviewers note the chocolates run high, which is typical for artisan chocolate but worth knowing upfront. One visitor also had trouble with listed hours not matching actual opening times, so calling ahead might save disappointment. That said, most customers feel the quality justifies the cost, describing the experience as divine and worth every penny for truly special occasions or gifts. The welcoming atmosphere and Kay's passion for her craft add to the charm of this small local chocolatier.
The Touring Chocolatier provided exceptional customer service. While placing an order from out-of-state for a family member in Texas, TTC was very responsive and quickly fulfilled my order to accommodate a specific pick -up time and adjusted the pick-up location so the in-state recipient could pick it up locally. Additionally, they assembled everything in a nice basket that was much appreciated by the recipient.
