SEEK is completely in love with Loco for Coco in Greensboro! Renowned for its marvelous assortment of fine chocolate truffles, chocolate covered fruits and nuts, chocolate bars, sipping chocolate and non—edible chocolate inspired gift. Loco for Coco continues to be the destination for chocolate aficionados.

The entrepreneurial spirits of the three Gauthier’s infuse Loco for Coco’s essence. With a love for all things chocolate, Betsy, Amie and Peter Gauthier created this premier chocolate destination in the Triad, blending an excellent selection of fine chocolates with affordable prices. Everyone who walks in their store is welcomed, not just by the wafting smell of chocolate, but by their genuine personal and enthusiastic flair they have for you the customer. “Seekers” will leave Loco for Coco’s with a box of the finest chocolates in the Triad and a new found love for this family.

Just  few truffles to nibble on!

Just a few truffles to nibble on!

Their desire to offer the best truffles {which are hand-made and dipped from a selection of Belgian, Swiss, and Guittard chocolate} and other chocolates required significant research. (We are sure that was the most grueling part of their job, tasting chocolates till they found the “perfect” combination!)  Fortunately, the chocolate resources that “passed the taste tests” have found favor with their local and national clientele. Loco for Coco ships across the country to make your gift giving as easy as possible to your favorite far away friends and family!

Boxed to Go as Gifts for ALL!!!

Boxed to Go as Gifts for ALL!!!

Customers, clients and chocolate lovers are always invited to stop by the store, or order online whenever their chocolate cravings surface.  Betsy Gauthier notes, “We’re a wonderful destination when you need a last-minute gift for any occasion.  Even if a customer has no idea of what type of chocolate to buy, we can always suggest some customer favorites, or supply a gift certificate.”

They are able and willing to ship anything you desire. But if you are in the area, you should just stop in and experience this little bit of “Heaven in Greensboro” for yourself!!!  SEEK is in love with the 2 piece and 4 piece boxes that offer just the right amount to satisfy a craving. Along with your scrumptious purchase, Loco for Coco wraps each box perfectly and puts in a bag with colorful tissue before you leave the store, even if it’s just for you to go sit in your car and enjoy (Since you can’t text while driving, eat chocolate instead!!!).

MJ and Trish concur that some of their favorites are the Tuxedo Bark {A bittersweet chocolate elegantly laced with white chocolate}  and the Dark Chocolate Caramel Sea Salt Truffle {Rich dark caramel ganache center in a dark chocolate shell, enrobed in dark chocolate finished with grey sea salt}.  Another do not miss is the seasonal Peppermint Bark!
