Saratoga Chocolate Co. is thrilled to announce it has been named the #5 Best Chocolate Shop in America by USA Today 10Best for 2025! Building on last year’s impressive #3 ranking (2024), this new accolade celebrates the team’s unwavering commitment to quality, creativity, and community.

Founded in 2016 by husband-and-wife duo Hank & Allison Rose, Saratoga Chocolate Co. began as a small artisan chocolate studio. Today, it stands as a beloved destination for handcrafted, ethically sourced confections. The achievement is particularly noteworthy as Saratoga Chocolate Co. is the only chocolate shop from New York, and the entire Northeast, to make the list for the second year in a row!

“We’re over the moon to be ranked #5 in the country, and #1 in your hearts - a huge thank you to all of our loyal followers for your votes and all of the love,” said co‑founder Allison Rose. “After earning #3 last year, this recognition reaffirms that passion, along with incredible community support, can take you places. We’re so proud to represent New York and the Northeast on this national stage.”

Making USA Today’s list highlights Saratoga Chocolate Co.’s continuing growth and excellence—from innovative new flavors to the newly expanded warm café atmosphere customers adore.
