About

Rousseau Chocolatier specializes in chocolates with a focus on milk chocolate varieties but includes a small selection of vegan dark chocolate truffles and bars. The venue has friendly service, though vegan options are limited and not clearly labeled. Their dairy-free soft serve sorbet provides a dairy-free alternative; however, the hot chocolate contains dairy and is not vegan. Prices and product quality cater more to general palates than gourmet chocolate enthusiasts.
