If you love chocolate, I have a new Raleigh spot you need to put on your list: Trugalug Chocolates. It is located right next to the Alamo on New Bern.
Trugalug is a craft bean-to-bar chocolate shop where chocolate lovers can see—and taste—the care that goes into every bite. The shop specializes in handcrafted chocolate, bonbons, candy and coffee, making it the perfect place to stop when you’re craving something a little sweeter.
And there’s more to Trugalug than just really good chocolate. The shop is committed to sustainability and carefully selects its ingredients and sources with the environment and local communities in mind. They also focus on natural ingredients, including fresh fillings made with real cream and pure cane sugar.
Trugalug also offers workshops and opportunities for chocolate enthusiasts to learn more about the craft, which makes this a fun spot for a date, an outing with friends or even a unique family experience.
I love finding local businesses that offer something a little different, and Trugalug definitely fits that description. Whether you’re a serious chocolate lover or simply looking for a fun new place to grab a sweet treat, this is one Raleigh spot worth checking out.
