Mr. Ganache Chocolatier

So each and every time I’m on my way here I promise myself I will try something other than macarons. I never can do it. Luckily, they’re about $ 2 a cookie so my wallet won’t let me go crazy but yummmmm. The passion fruit ones only survive about 500 feet; I eat them at a table right outside the store. The owner is very nice also. There’s so many good treats here !

This review is mainly for their macarons which were ‘melt in your mouth De-​Lish’!! I had the coconut flavor and it made me want to sit and eat every single flavor they offered. Only downside were the limited amount of flavors. Will definitely be back for more.

This place is really cozy, so cozy the owner’s dog seats in the waiting area … If you have a sweet tooth this is the place for you! Macaroons are made to perfection and in so many flavored you will not know if your are dreaming or not!!!

Stopped in with bf while craving a sweet treat or 2 or 3 or 4… we chose out a variety of truffles to share and sample: dark chocolate, espresso, green tea, honey, caramel, and maybe one or two I’m forgetting? My favorite was the honey which was just so rich without being sickly sweet. His favorite was the green tea which was a really unique flavor. YUM.

Mr. Ganache is climbing on my list of places to get sweet treats. The boutique carries various candies, cupcakes, & teas. For me, I did notice that they have Johnnie Walker cordials. I’m going to treat myself to a box of those one day. As for what I have tried, their artisan chocolates & macarons are fantastic! I created a small sample box of chocolates. I noticed that their selection changes as my following visit had an assortment I wouldn’t have necessarily been jumping at. The macarons are sooo soft with that crunchy shell. Just perfect. I’m still yet to try Ladurée, but Mr. Ganache claims to be better. I WILL do a side-​by-​side comparison one day.

I only went in for macarons. So I can’t comment on the chocolates except to say that they were beautiful and looked yummy. But back to the macarons. I ordered 4. Rose Petal, Violet, Pistachio, and Raspberry. They were all good, but the pistachio stood out above them all. The texture of the macarons were on point and the individual tastes were good.
The store is super cute and you can sometimes pet the little puppy that belongs to the owner.
The price is about the same as Atelier Monnier and considerably less than Ladurée. For the sake of research, I might just have to subject myself to a side by side blind taste test of all three! I’ll keep y’all posted.

meh… expensive and quality is not on par with my fav Atelier Monnier on Dixie Hwy near Dadeland mall. I had the macarons which was average but tiny for the price. Then again it is Brickell. The store is located in Mary Brickell near Burger and Beer joint. It is filled with lots of cute specialty candy and chocolates including truffles. It is a very cute store but i think if i crave macarons in the future, i wouild stick to my favorite Atelier Monnier in South Miami.
Overall just ok.

I’m a big chocolate, macaroons lover and after seeing huge sign: «Best Macaroons» I decide to stop by at check out. They have verity of different flavors of macaroons as well as chocolate. But after eating it I was a bit disappointed as macaroons were very crunchy not melting in mouth as they suppose to, but I enjoy filling inside. I got coconut, raspberry and coffee. I also enjoy mini hear chocolate.
It’s not a bad place but not the best as they claim to be.

Well well…
Located at the Mary Brickell Village on the lower level, Ganache Chocolatier does catch your attention with the sign right outside, claiming «The Best Macarons in Town»… Now this is a big claim. Especially to a seasoned macaron eater, who only strives perfection in their macarons.
Something to their advantage is that, I really had very low expectations of such a place, and such a claim. Don’t get me wrong, it is by no means a run down place, after all, this is a store located in Mary Brickell village.
Here comes my picky critique. If you don’t have a huge preference of Macarons and if you eat Macarons just to say you eat Macarons, or you like how they look, or how great they are to look at because of the colorful variations they come with, I’m sure you will think this place is great. But… There is always a but right?
A macaron is supposed to melt in your mouth, as soon as you take that bite. When you take a bite, it is not supposed to be crunchy, and if it is, it is a sign that, they are either not preserved right from the moment they have been made (usually has to be made daily to be good), or they haven’t made them right.
This place would get 1 star from me, if it wasn’t for the Pistachio macarons, because it saved this place. Then again, I’m being generous with a 2 star. The rest of the macarons I’ve tried were fairly disappointing. But somehow their Pistachio macarons are pretty good. The texture is right, the taste is correct and the filling is that buttery filling that you strive to have in a macaron.
Don’t know if this was a fluke, considering how disappointing the other flavors were, but could recommend this place for one thing. If you are a dark chocolate eater, they do have Godiva’s extra dark chocolate bars on the shelf. Just get those instead, and maybe give the Pistachio macaron a try, hopefuly, they have got it right that time as well.

I saw this place walking by to another restaurant and read: The best French Macaron in Town!” And of course, I took that as challenge, and came back.
I then asked the man in charge if they were truly the best, to what he answered: Indeed they are. He recommended me Pistaccio, Caramel and Coconut. I had the three of them and an extra Vanilla one.
They were outstanding! The texture of the macarons was like i’d never tried before. And the flavor… Smooth and delicious.
If you love macarons, come here. They are trying out a new chef and it seems that he is fine where he is. And if you haven’t tried macarons, come here to start lovin’ them

The worst French macarons in town — although they claim they are the best.
I am French, and its true I am a bit picky when it comes to that sort of things, but really, the macarons were horrible. I had to through them away after a bite (at each flavor I bough, I really give them a chance). That, added to the fact that they were claiming to have the best in town (whereas Le Boudoir’s, and even more so Atelier Monnier’s, both in the neighborhood, are infinitely better — Atelier Monnier’s are actually the real thing), made me VERY suspicious of anything else that they might do.

A very good chocolate selection and even a little tea section to boot. I have been a fan of Schakolad Chocolate and consider their choices of single serving chocolate morsels my gold standard. But Mr. Ganache is a fine competitor.
Mr. Ganache, a smaller, but very quant spot in Mary Brickell has a good enough selection and is conveniently located on your walk back to the parking garage, on the North side of the 1^st floor, if the urge strikes. We tried the toffee covered in nuts, so very delicious!
The young man serving the customers was preoccupied with something on his iPod and rather than taking a few minutes to answer a few questions seemed very interested to get back to it. Not something I appreciated, we may have spent a few more $ there if he had been friendlier but with an attitude like that we’ll get in and get out thank you!

definitely remniscent of a French chocolatier, complete with the steep prices. but, delicious artisanal products. good if you just have a really powerful chocolate craving!

My wife and I stumbled upon Mr. Ganache the first week we moved into our shiny brand new Brickell Condominium. We were exploring Mary Brickell Village when we came upon Mr. Ganache the Chocolatier.
Funny story… we found out he lives in our building! He was incredibly friendly and nice to us, this short man with the thick french accent. What a nice man! We got to play with his cute little dog, Tiger! And he guided us in choosing some truly badass chocolate which we devoured. Every piece better than the last.
As for me, I was just happy he served Misha’s Cupcakes. Check him out if you’re ever in Mary Brickell Village!

This place always seems so dead, I wonder how they make it.
Overly fancy chocolate shop hidden within Mary Brickell Village. You’d easily walk right past it without even knowing where it was; however, once you get inside, they have some nice chocolates and other sweets.
The chocolates are very good and they also have Misha’s cupcakes too.

cute little place! My boyfriend and I detoured here on our way to Burgers & Beer Joint, and am I glad we did!
The pieces are beautiful! I only tried a few and they were very good. My favourite was definitely the rose water-​infused one! And the prices are definitely reasonable, considering my favourite chocolatier charges significantly more than this place.
Oh, and the owner is a LOVELY gentleman!

OMG!!! I have a love/​hate relationship with this store. First, they have the most delectable sweets you could possibly imagine and they have Misha’s cupcakes, as well. As if the other stuff wasn’t enough! LOL. Second, watch out foe those calories and sugar! This store is right next to where I live and it’s such a temptation. I wish they were close, but nit that close. When it’s not me craving for some of their yummy sweets, then it’s my daughter begging me to take here here. Go figure! But, it’s a definite must try! I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Oh, and the staff is very friendly.

This place is pure HELL for anyone trying to refrain from indulging in sweets. Unfortunately, for me, I live close by and know that I am steps away from an assortment of chocolates hand made in New York, as well as imported candies and chocolates and more importantly, Misha’s cupcakes!
This is the perfect place to indulge your sweet tooth or to buy a nice decadent treat as a present for someone. The packaging is nice for a gift. The owner explained that the truffles and chocolates are flown in from New York where they are made. Misha’s presumably delivers full sized and mini cupcakes on a regular basis. But you will also find a wide assortment of teas and tea-​related items. I tried not to look around too much, out of fear that I would walk out with more waist-​size-​increasing consumables.
Definitely stop by and take a look, but only if you’re willing to let calorie counting at the door!

Yum yum yum!!!
Adorable little chocolate shop in Mary Brickell Village with unique flavors like sea salt chocolate! I’m a sucker for anything raspberry or champagne flavored… I could fill an entire box with just those flavors…
Owner is very sweet and sometimes his puppy is in the shop with him!

We stopped by here for a girlfriend’s birthday present.
The place is so cute! and there’s 28 different types of truffles and chocolates. (we counted, it comes out to my friends new age. lol. it was meant to be!)
so… we proceeded to order a box of 24, which is 42 dollars. and since it was her birthday, the nice owner gave us 10% off.
he had samples for us to try. and after buying the box, he gave each of us another truffle for the road. It was decadent!
the best ones that we all loved were
— champagne truffle
— raspberry
— hazelnut
— coconut truffle
–sea salt one… was kinda good.
the odd one (to me) was the Vietnamese truffle one. it had a weird spicey kick to it. but my friends loved it.
anyway. its worth a try, if you have a friend who Loves chocolate, and its’ a special occasion. kinda pricey, but what isn’t in Brickell? but it’s worth the nice gift. :)
