Cherry Hill Chocolates

Cherry Hill Chocolates is a nice, but pricey chocolate and candy store on the High Street in Ely, located in an old building built in to the walls of the Cathedral close. The chocolates were delicious, but are all from Belgium, which you wouldn’t know if you didn’t ask. This is sort of disappointing because otherwise you’re sort of led to believe these are housemade confections. So don’t think you’re getting local specialties, but if you need a fix of delicious chocolate, this could be your place.

The smell that welcomes you when walking into Cherry Hill Chocolates is just sensational! A bitter-​sweet symphony of the vast array of chocolates and confectionery available is the sort of thing I mean. Behind a deli counter you will see hundreds of hand-​made, top quality chocolates all with such particular design and taste! This place really sets of the taste buds, my only quibble is that the prices are quite high so it puts me off a little. I suppose this could be a good thing as I would probably way double what I do now if the prices were cheaper. You can buy boxes in varying sizes and fill them with your favourites, mine being Praline related products! The Turkish Delight here is just amazing and therefore I highly recommend it to anyone with a love for Turkish Delight. There are packaged products to buy here too such as Jelly Belly beans and other chocolates and Nougat etc and also ice-​cream! YUM! If ever you have seen the film Chocolat, starring Johnny Depp then you can get the sort of picture I am trying to portray here of just how spectacular this shop is. A real treat to enter, even if you don’t buy anything!
