Available in cool milkshakes or warm hot chocolates, Diva drinks tout the names of famous women, such as the Audrey Hepburn, the Betty Davis, and the Marilyn Monroe—a creamy white-chocolate creation infused with mint and topped with whipped cream and crumbled Oreos.

Two chocolate-pairing classes take place from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on select Thursdays every month. See the full schedule here. During the class, students enjoy drink and chocolate samples while learning about the subtleties and flavor notes in each bite or sip. The knowledge shared during the class aims to help students recognize what to look for when combining the two products. Classes fill up quickly, so Artfully Chocolate recommends that Groupon users register as soon as possible.

Artfully Chocolate

Part art gallery, part cocoa bar, Artfully Chocolate was established in 2007 when owner Eric Nelson quit his job as an executive in order to pursue his artistic passions. Needing a little something extra to draw attention to his shop and unwilling to sound a tornado siren after every purchase, Eric called on the services of friend and chocolatier Rob Kingsbury. Kingsbury instantly infused the colorful gallery with the sweet allure Eric was seeking.

Today, the duo’s handiwork takes center stage inside two different locations: Eric’s masterpieces parade across the walls, and Rob’s expertise reveals itself in sips and bites of decadent drinks and pastries. They also host tasting classes, including a wine-pairing class and chocolate-tasting class.
