Delft is one of my favourite cities in the Netherlands. An old city with a young vibe, with narrow streets and many cosy shops to discover. In one of my visits, last summer, I stumbled upon this little chocolate shop: Van der Burgh Chocolaad. The beautiful patterns of the chocolate packaging Iāve seen in the window charmed me, so I entered to see what treats I can get. Inside the cute shop, I noticed something you donāt see often: someone was manually packing the chocolates! How cool is that?! The interior was cosy, with a few antiques decorations and smelled heavenly. I learned that itās a family business and they sell handmade chocolates that are also packaged by hand, because they believe that every chocolate should be a gift. And a gift it was! I left the place with a few sweets, my favourite being a chocolate with pieces of confit orange — I opened it as soon as I was outside and it quickly disappeared.
P.S. This is not a sponsored article, I paid for my chocolate and I don’t regret it š

Now I want chocolate š It’s a good thing I don’t live too near Delft otherwise I might spend a lot of money in that shop.
Yes, it’s kind of impossible to leave the place with only one chocolate š
Only one? :p
Ha ha! Yes, I am that person who buys only one. Most of the times š
