2. Myzel Chocolates, Manhattan
Myzel Chocolates was founded by the mother-daughter-duo of Kamila Myzel and her mother, Lucy. Kamila emigrated from Poland in 1981 and started the shop with her mother in 1990. Using her grandmother’s recipes, the pair created delectable chocolates and cookies at their shop on West 55th Street in Manhattan. After Lucy passed away in 2015, Kamila continued to run the sweet shop. At the shop, seemingly endless rows of glass jars filled with colorful candies line the shelves behind the counter where display cases are packed with mouthwatering trays of chocolates. One of the many special features of Myzel’s shop is the selection of more than 130 different licorice flavors from around the world. The shop also creates festive gift baskets for holidays throughout the year. You can order from the store online or in the shop.
