Portland Chocolatiers

Pitch Dark Modern American Chocolate

If your taste in chocolate tends towards the dark side, be sure to sample the offerings of Pitch Dark. These dark chocolate experts use handpicked, single-origin beans to highlight regional flavors, like Fiji’s earthy cacao or Madagascar’s spicy beans.

The Meadow

Founded in 2006, The Meadow is a testament to founder Mark Bitterman’s diverse tastes and passions. These include artisan salts, chocolates (from the creamiest white to the bitterest dark), cocktail bitters and freshly cut flowers. Browse the international “chocolate library” at either of The Meadow’s Portland locations. And visit their website to learn more about chocolate (even “how to eat a chocolate bar”).
