"Loco for Cocoa: The Essential Guide to Chocolate"
-Linda Burim
While many industries have adopted automated methods to produce their foodstuffs, L.A.'s best chocolate makers still do it the old fashioned way: by hand.
The Edelweiss shop has been designated a historical city landmark, and its house-made candies should be equally well protected. Edelweiss is renowned for a chocolate-covered honeycomb and seven flavors or lighter-than-air marshmallows, covered with dark, milk, nut-coated, or chocolate-sprinkled couvertur. Resident dipper Angela Huerta has an artist's feel for her work, coaxing chocolate into swirls that indicat the fillings in a wide array of bonbons. An extensive line of Likesin-sweetened chocolates is safe for diabetics. 444 N. Canon Dr., Beverly Hills, 310-275-0341.
