It's not your typical dessert shop. This one's proudly built on Malaysian cocoa, from bean to bite.

Run by the same folks behind Cocoraw, Kedai Coklat is a full-fledged dessert and confectionery café that celebrates local ingredients.

Every drink, tart, and bar of chocolate you see here is made with cocoa grown right here in Malaysia

Most of us associate cocoa with places like Ghana or Belgium, but Malaysia's been cultivating its own beans for decades.

Kedai Coklat sources from different states, including Kelantan, Pahang, and Perak, creating distinct flavour profiles that change slightly depending on the bean's origin.

Each dessert or drink might use a different cocoa batch, and the café even lists where the beans come from.

This transparency adds a charming, almost artisanal touch, letting you taste the diversity of Malaysian soil through every spoonful or sip.

If you only try one thing at Kedai Coklat, make it the Chocolate Terrine

It's their bestseller and for good reason.

Think of it as a rich, dense, almost mousse-like cake that melts on your tongue. The dark chocolate flavour is bold but not overpowering, balanced by a silky cream layer and crunchy chocolate crumbs on top.

It's a dessert that takes its time; smooth, bittersweet, and quietly addictive. Perfect for those who love dark chocolate without the sugar rush.

Their menu reads like a chocolate lover's wish list

Here are some must-tries on the list:
– Tiramisu In A Tart
– Local Chocolate Tart (Dark)
– Classic Chocolate Cake
– Chewy Cookies
– Chocolate Brownies
– Chocolate Banana Cake

If you're more of a sipper, their chocolate beverages are just as good — warm, velvety, and slightly nutty from the local cocoa beans.

They also sell handmade confections, cookies, spreads, and chocolate bars, so you can take a piece of that local goodness home.
