Kakawa Chocolate is outstanding. The chocolate quality is on another level, rich, complex, and beautifully crafted. The brownie sundae is to die for and the mocha is unreal. Plus, the staff are genuinely kind and make the whole experience even better. A must for chocolate lovers. 🍫✨ We will be back most definitely.

The best chocolate I’ve ever had! 🍫✨ Kakawa’s Frozen Chocolate is so good I had to get a second one! An older lady with long hair kindly recommended it — I usually go for hot, but I’m so glad I tried this. Went all the way to Salem just for two cups on Nov 2. Totally worth it! ❤️

Literally the best Chocolate Brownie Sunday Ive ever had. The ice cream was decadent and the brownie was soft and dense. Everything made from Dark chocolate and the depth and taste of each layer boasts amazing flavor.

Stopped in for hot chocolate. Left with wonderful memories. Our kids got scooped up by a gentleman who I assumed to be the owner. He brought them to the back to make some chocolates themselves. Mary also took great care of us in delivering some of the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had in my life. Will surely return every time we’re in Salem

Amazing flavors of hot or cold chocolate drinks! They will let you sample, so ask to try a few. Some are bitter and full of spicy flavors, and others are more traditional. You can also watch them make the chocolates they sell. They have a huge variety, and the chocolate mango slice was really good.
