Don’t let the posh exterior fool you, Fran’s Chocolates is rather warm on the inside. When you step in, you’re going to want to leave with a bag full of their dessert sauces and salted caramels. While they’re both good options, don’t skip out on the star of the show: hot chocolate. We suggest that you stick to their classic dark hot chocolate with 68% cacao.
