The Xocolate Bar, our tiny factory store on Solano Avenue is on social @xocolatebar. We continue to make our products there so that Rockridge can focus on the retail shopping experience.
BTW, Xocolate is pronounced shocolate, like the Aztec word Xocolatl. This is a nod to owner Malena Lopez-Maggi's Latin American heritage.
