Soul Chocolate

PSA: This is the last week for soft serve, floats, sundaes and affogatos as we make our transition to warmer, cozier beverages and treats.

Come by and enjoy before it’s gone for the season 🍦

Enjoying a day off with the fam today.

See you tomorrow!

Happy long weekend everyone!

Here are our Long Weekend Hours

Saturday: 9-5
Sunday: 9-5
Monday: Closed

Come by and grab a hot chocolate, a house made brownie or cookie and soak in the last weekend before kiddos make their way back to school. Never sure if it’s a happy or sad moment (or both?)

Our friends have made a Soul Chocolate collab ice cream using our white, milk and dark chocolate 🍫🍫🍫

We call it the Soul Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate but are not offended if you just call it the Soul Chocolate. Either way it’s tasty 🤤

Stop by the leslieville location and give it a taste 🍦

Serious news, followed by less serious news 🤣➡️➡️➡️

See y’all tomorrow

Strawberry matcha cream puffs are back in the cabinet! Makes a pretty solid afternoon treat, just sayin’

Full restock of truffles today. Lots of classics, some fun seasonal flavours and plenty of caramel. Like 5 different caramels. So good (my fav is scotch caramel)

Chocolate, vanilla or swirl em up.

Today is a swirl day for myself 🍭🍦

Nitro coffee magic happening right here ✨☕️

It’s World chocolate day and my first thought is: who starts these things? My second thought is: everyone needs a community to be a part of and maybe that’s why it began in the first place.

When first diving into our entrepreneurial journey, I felt like I was able to single-handedly build a business to towering heights, easy peasy. I’ve learned a few things since then.

Here’s my biggest takeaway so far:

Doing it alone is not possible. You need those cheerleaders who support your vision whether they’re friends or family or strangers. You also need those who provide honest feedback to help you grow. To me, this is community, and I am so so grateful for each and every one of you reading this, coming by our shop, saying hi, telling your friend about us, so on and so on…

Our community fuels us to push ahead in this chocolate journey, on chocolate day and every other day, to help make a positive change in the way cacao is sourced and how chocolate is made. By doing so, we’re able to support communities across the globe, who are certainly in need of a little extra help to put it way too lightly.

So, makes me ask: What chocolate are you eating?

It’s an Affogato kind of weather

Soft serve and espresso is some kind of magic!

What do you choose: Vanilla, Chocolate or Swirl?

Roasted strawberries and matcha cream puffs are here. We are proud to use matcha from for both these cream puffs and all matcha drinks / desserts we make in house.

Next up on our summer menu is the strawberry latte. We roast Ontario strawberries and blitz into a purée, then top with your choice of an espresso or matcha latte.

Mix it up or save the strawberries until the end. The choice is yours… (I hear mixing is pretty dang good)

Not sure which bar to bring home? We are now offering samples of our bars. You’ll notice which we have on offer by locating the ‘samples available’ tag on our chocolate wall.

First up: Madagascar 70% dark chocolate - known for its fruity, almost raisin like flavour. Come by and give it a taste

Hot weeks need cool treats 🔥=❄️

First up is our strawberry latte - Roasted strawberry jam, topped off with iced matcha latte or espresso based latte. Swirl it up or save the strawberry for the end

Bring on the summer!

We have plenty of playful summer menu items for you to try - from nitro cacao fruit to strawberry lattes, we have something for everyone.

Swipe to see our new menu. We’ll be adding in homemade waffle cones next week, but everything else is ready to go.

Open 9-5 every day ☀️🍫☕️

Truffles have long been something I have wanted to dive into but always found reasons to do anything but!

lately I’ve been diving into learning about these tricky little things and was inspired to make a strawberry basil truffle.

So here it is, in all its glory. Roasted Ontario strawberry jelly layered w/ a basil infused white chocolate. It’s fun, packs a flavour punch and has gotten me more excited to explore fun and seasonal flavours at Soul.

Can’t wait to play around with some more ideas next week…

Have you ever tried cacao fruit?

If you haven’t, or are craving the fruity, fun flavours of the cacao fruit itself, we are serving this sweet, tropical beverage on tap.

Come give it a taste and let us know what you think. Bonus points for contributing a new name for the drink

Roasted strawberry & rhubarb cream puffs are here. We plan to rotate the fruits based on season to keep it fresh & local.

If you have yet to try and roast your strawberries you definitely should. It condenses the sweetness and makes a good filling, jam, or drizzle on your ice cream.

Come have a taste!

Vegan creamsicles are making their debut this weekend. We added a layer of tahini caramel to the centre and coated the whole thing in chocolate and then candied hazelnuts.

We’re just rolling these out so we have a limited supply but come on by and treat yourself!

Two ultimate chocolate cookies and our swirl soft serve have joined forces do bring you the most delicious, most indulgent, most wonderful ice cream cookie sandwich.

Cancel all meetings, skip lunch, and head on down for a treat unlike any other. Available today and all summer long!

Are you a chocolate, vanilla, or swirl kinda person?

Recipes are locked in. Soft serve is tasting great. Come eat some?

Spending time out of the shop today, reading ‘The Practice’ by

It’s easy to say it’s not working and call it quits. But what if you just add a little ‘yet’ to the end of that sentence. It opens up another opportunity to try again and dip your toe into the waters of the unknown.

Making chocolate can be hard. But it can also be really fun. So happy we took (and continue to take) the leap!

We are open all long weekend, 9-5, stocked with tons of truffles, chocolate bars, drinks and more.

For those of you in the area, the farmers market at Greenwood has started up again and is always a great way to kick off a morning as well.

Enjoy the long weekend 🎉
