Artisan Chocolate in Charleston, South Carolina

Great sweets are nothing new in Charleston, but until recently this foodie dream town has lacked a seriously modern chocolatier. John E. Battles has changed all of that, turning out small batches of truffles and chocolates bars made from local ingredients in witty and unusual flavor pairing including peanut butter and jelly, parmesan and sweet basil and local bay leaf and cardamom. Sweeteeth chocolates are sold in several Charleston locations.
