Carlo Goldoni's Hot Chocolate - Edit
They have a recipe for Hot Chocolate taken from Carlo Goldoni's diary from 1750, it's vegan and includes potato powder as a thickener with spices, it's quite an experience. I heard it described as the Red Bull of it's day.

Rich vegan hot chocolate - Edit
I’m vegan but also allergic to dairy, eggs, nuts. I explained my allergies and being vegan to the workers and they were so kind explaining everything I could have on the menu. Try the dark hot chocolate even if you’re not vegan (I got the small size it was perfect) and you’ll love picking apart the flavors and spices. Really recommend.

Amazing chocolate - Edit
We got the dark almond chocolate and it was surprisingly incredibly delicious and unlike any dark chocolate i’ve had before. However, it is quite expensive, but definitely worth it! The woman who was working there was very friendly and willing to help too.

Chocolate as an art - Edit
They don't sell Hersey bars here. This is all made in house, daily, and at a very high level. Many vegan options and the staff knows what is vegan-friendly. The fresh stuff is sold by weight. Lots of pre-packaged stuff too. Of course with all that and being in Venice, it's not cheap, but very worth it.
Read morePros: Vegan aware, good selection
Cons: pricey, some of the best looking stuff isn't vegan

Great chocolate shop with vegan options - Edit
The old-fashioned hot chocolate (vegan, just chocolate and spices) was delicious. If you like dark chocolate, then you should try it! The kind lady in the shop explained that Venetians used to drink this kind of hot chocolate around 1750. Other vegan options include plain chocolate and chocolate covered fruits or nuts. I tried a few chocolate covered fruits, which were also tasty.

a vegan aware chocolate shop - Edit
It is great to have a chocolate/candy shop that is aware of their vegan options (rare in the USA in my experience!). I loved the chocolate covered fruit that we got here. There were a ton of dark chocolate bar options as well including a chocolate lilac bar that was awesome (and did not last long despite its large size!).

Chocolate-covered fruits worth it! - Edit
We came across this place by accident, and am I glad we did. The proprietress was able to point out the vegan options, which included a variety of bar chocolates, fruit candies, and chocolate covered fruits. While these are only three different types of chocolates, there was a lot of variety within them. We shared a chocolate bar with lilac (wow!), but the chocolate covered fruits were the highlight. I had an apricot, and it was unlike any chocolate covered fruit I have ever tasted. It was a gigantic apricot covered in a rich dark chocolate. My partner had the fig, but I didn't get to sample it because the fruits brought out our selfish sides and we didn't even share.

Pros: chocolate covered fruits, creative bars, owner knows what is vegan

a little vegan dissapointed... :( - Edit
This place was beautiful. After a long walk to get there, we found out that most of this things in the place were not vegan. LOTS of vegetarian stuff though. The only truly vegan things were the dark chocolate bars and the sorbet. The sorbet was delicious though! If you are vegetarian, you'll be in heaven!
Read morePros: beautiful chocolate, large selection
Cons: few vegan options
