D'liteful Chocolat - San Marcos, California

The best all around! Everyone here is so kind and accommodating. I had a double (back to back) birthday party for chocolate making, tea and sandwiches for my 10 year old daughter. I think we had a total of 28 little girls! They pulled it off beautifully and they did everything! They made it easy for me to greet and mingle with the parents and not have to worry about the details. All the girls were so excited and happy to be making and eating chocolate. The owner was really good at explaining and educating about the cocoa bean and entire chocolate making process. She really took the time to make everyone feel special. Also, I can’t forget to mention the beautiful shop filled with a gorgeous display of chocolate and macaroons among other delicious things. A huge thank you to the owner and all the staff that made her day extra special. You are all the best!

D’liteful Chocolate is a hidden gem located in the Lakes of San Marcos. Our family has enjoyed their treats for years. I send my daughter to every kid camp and holiday camp offered, and it’s always been a wonderful experience.
The macaroons, crème brûlée, chocolate eclairs, and the most delicious truffles outside of France are served by friendly staff.

I love the chocolates and desserts from this store. They are always beautiful and delicious.. but this weekend, my friends and I were fortunate enough to take the Level 1 chocolate class for my bridal celebration and had such a wonderful experience and left with a box of delicious chocolates. The team there clearly loves their craft and it comes through as they help us learn about how chocolate is grown/processed, making ganache, sealing chocolates and piping. We had such a fun time and I would highly recommend!!!

This cozy little hidden gem in San Marcos! It has left the best impressions! The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Tea collection exported from Great Britain is amazing! But of course the main thing here is hand made chocolates and cookies and definitely worth trying is the cream brûlée! Gluten free options available.
Hospitable hosts, wonderful desserts and atmosphere of a little French cafe. I payed attention to chef’s 👩‍🍳 London Diploma on the wall. Impressive!
I recommend to everyone! I would like to come back here again and again. Thank you!

Beautiful AND delicious cake for my father's 90th. Dayleen listened to my ideas and created something extraordinary.

It not only looked incredible but quality ingredients were used so everyone was asking for seconds.

* FYI - I made the cake base seen in two photos

We had the BEST time at our daughter’s 12th birthday party! From start to finish, the team at D’liteful made sure every detail was perfect. The chocolate making class was unique and fun for all and the afternoon tea was a perfect way to end the celebration! I would highly recommend D’liteful for all your party needs. Dayleen and her skilled staff are truly wonderful and we will remember this party for many years to come. Thank you for a PERFECT day!!

We did a private chocolate making class here and had a blast. Learned about the science of chocolate and got to create some delicious chocolates and take home a bunch too. Thank you Whitney and crew!

My friend and I took the macaron class, and it was incredible. I loved how Chef D really cared about us learning and having a successful outcome. I will be looking forward to attending more classes in the future.
Highly recommend her classes and her pastries.
