No visit to Kiama would be complete without a visit to  My Chocolate Shoppe in 106 Terralong St, Kiama.
They sell a wide range of handmade chocolates in all shapes, sizes and flavours.



Needing a caffeine hit after a 4am start I decided upon a chilli mocha (cappuccino, Belgian chocolate and chilli powder). Yumm! Also with me was Maryann from Kiama and Stella from Umbria, Italy who ordered a Mocha (without the Chilli) and Hot Chocolate with whipped cream, consecutively.

Whilst we waited for our drinks to be prepared I took some photographs of the interior and each individual chocolate sold at My Chocolate Shoppe. By the time my chilli mocha arrived I was hungry to taste some of the specialty chocolates and had purchased a sample pack of 9 chocolates


When our drinks arrived you could hear our moans of delight. There is nothing like a perfectly made cup of mocha with the finest quality ingredients to awaken the appetite.

I first stumbled upon The Chocolate Shoppe in 2008 when it was located in Shellharbour Village. I instantly fell in love with the charming shop which sells a wide range of chocolates as well as hot beverages.

On my birthday my Mother gave me some money to purchase some chocolates as a present. I talked with the owners and took many photos of the chocolates before selecting ten to purchase and  take home.

"Chocoholics unite! My Chocolate Shoppe is the place to go. You simply won't be able to resist their selection of handmade chocolates. Relax at the Chocolate Cafe and enjoy a hot chocolate made from Belgian chocolate." (Illawarra Food Reviews, 2009)

 I love the many varieities sampled and enjoyed the quirky shapes such as red lips, penguins, pyramids, cupcakes and more.

Strapped for cash? You can get a great meal from the following locations listed in the Food Fairness Low Cost & Free Meals directory with some I have added (look for the *) and can recommend.
If you know of a low cost or free meal that isn't added, please let me know!

Can you believe this large piece of rump steak only cost $7?

Alternatively, you could try the Rump Steak with salad.
