Choccywoccydoodah has been on my to-visit list for a long time after reading bits about the brand online so a few weeks’ ago when I was having a London day out I decided to pay the small Carnaby store a visit.
Having read loads about how busy the small upstairs cafe can get so we opted to get there just after opening on Saturday morning which meant a chocolate-fuelled breakfast at around 10.30am, and I’m so glad we got there at that time. By 10.45am the cafe was completely full with people queuing up the stairs to get in. First things first I knew I had to get one of their legendary hot chocolates as Choccywoccydoodah is constantly mentioned in top hot chocolate in London lists so I went for the minty version and my other half went for the pure molten chocolate version. You can choose which type of chocolate you want – white, milk or dark – and then whether you want cream/ marshmallows etc. I love how you get the choice as I know sometimes when I’m given dark I can find it too rich.
When they arrived they were beautifully presented with mine coming with some mint chocolate biscuits and the original one coming with their checkerboard biscuits, complete with chocolate straw and whipped cream. I’m going to go out on a limb and say it was the best hot chocolate I’ve ever had because it was rich due to the melted chocolate within but not too heavy or sickly, that was to come.
Of course, we couldn’t go to Choccywoccydoodah and not order some cake’s so my other half had a Dark Chocolate Brownie which was incredible, chocolatey and gooey like a brownie should be without being too stodgy. I went all out and had the Chocolate Everything Cake which was five layers of chocolate cake with all their different truffles and despite my other half taking a third of the cake I still couldn’t eat all of what was left, this is definitely a two or three person sharing cake. What I did have was very nice but due to it’s intense chocolate taste it did get a little much for me. Next time I’m totally going to buck the trend and go for their Silician Lemon Cake.

This looks incredible, next time I’m in London I must visit the cafe! xo
Wow this looks immense! I want some now haha x
I’ve seen them on their TV show when they make the most amazing cakes! Didn’t realise it was a coffee shop too – those drinks look amazing!
I don’t think they have anything like this in the States. Or if they do, I can’t afford to go there, haha. This sounds amazing. Any idea if anything was vegan? Maybe some of their dark chocolate options? Going on my to-do list if so!!
I believe they did have a cake option which was vegan x
Oh wow! Last time I went here it was SO busy so I just gave up haha. That brownie does look worth a wait though.
Yeah it does get super busy which is why we went there pretty much an opening time x
I am seriously craving something sweet now! I would so love to go here, it looks like an experience! Lemon cake is my fav keep me posted!
This looks like the perfect cheat meal! I gotta try it out. That brownie especially!

It depends on my mood, but I usually go for a plain sponge cake.
