Check It. Teuscher Chocolates.

I discovered these incredibly tasty gourmet chocolates while strolling alone on Boston's Newbury Street. Later I discovered there's a Los Angeles location, in Beverly Hills.

Teuscher's signature chocolate is the Champagne truffle. It's a soft chocolate truffle, with a slightly firm thin hard shell and powdered sugar dusted on the outside. The best part is the Champagne cream center--made with Dom Perignon if you can believe it. The Zurich-made delights are considered by many (including Oprah!) to be the best chocolates in the world.

A 2 Champagne truffle box is $7.95, a 16 Champagne truffle box, $41.50.

Teuscher Chocolates of Beverly Hills is located at 9548 Brighton Way in Beverly Hills.
