Inside SoCal: 2/13 Wrap-Up
With only one day left to shop, we have gift ideas that will make your Valentine's Day shopping worth the wait!
COMPARTÉS CHOCOLATE
Since 1950, Compartés Chocolates has been serving Hollywood with some of the best chocolate around. Frequent visits from Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley and others are now replaced by Oprah, Gwyneth Paltrow, even Tom Brady.
Over the last two decades, Jonathan Graham has taken the chocolate factory to the next level. He creates familiar yet elevated flavors, designs packaging you'd like frame, and instills the importance of handmade chocolates — each formed, dipped and decorated by hand in his chocolate factory on La Brea Ave.
For Valentine's Day, you can purchase gift boxes sure to blow your special someone away, as well as Pink Chocolate Oreos for a twist on a classic. Or, simply pop by for curbside pick-up and grab a few of the beautiful bars, complete with poems on the back. You can't go wrong here!
