cacao fine chocolates

Today was a nice cold day for hot chocolates. Upon reading about this place in the Age Cafe Guide I decided to check it out.
This place is in the GPO which is Melbourne's most loved shopping place for designer gear. I have seen this place a few times, but did not have the time to try it.
Their opening hours. Cacao opens when the rest of GPO opens

Some of their handmade chocolate






I love their mug with the word "Cacao"

Cacao is small and very cosy. It is an open air cafe in the middle of GPO. One disadvantage is that the bathrooms are nowhere to been seen. They are downstairs in the basement. You take the lift to go down. They even sell their own handmade chocolates.
The service was quick.
Here's what I ordered and it all came up to $15.15 altogether. One hot chocolate, one lemon and one raspberry macaroon and one chocolate crossaint. The Crossaint was recommended by the Age.
The macaroons were really flavoursome. They were nice and sweet and did not crack at the bottom. You can buy them for $10-$15 per box. There are also some chocolate golf balls which you can buy for $5.95 each.
The chocolate crossaint was not warm enough and did not have much chocolate to it. Other than that it was nice.
The chocolate was really nicely done. It was really big and filling for the price I paid for it.
I would be coming back here again this time with a friend. And also they should be featured in the Entertainment book offers
