Owner of Chocolee Chocolates located in the South End of Boston Lee Napoli has more than two decades of baking experience. Her career in the food service industry began at the front of the house but she soon found her niche in the pastry shop. Lee is self taught and has worked with many talented pastry chefs to perfect her craft. This has left her with a willingness to work hard and an appreciation that success doesn't happen over night.
All the chocolates at Chocolee are handcrafted by Lee and her associate Annie.
House Specials that are on hand at all times include 5 truffles:
* Hazelnut
* Espresso
* White Chocolate Pistachios
* Moroccan Mint
* Spicey Poblano Pepper.
House favorite chocolates at Chocolee include dark chocolate with salted caramel, dark chocolate with sesame caramel, dark chocolate with bourbon cherry and honey filling, and dark chocolate with chocolate ganache and candied ginger.
Chocolee also sells a bark called kapinziner. It is made from semi-sweet chocolate and toasted almonds.
Chocolee will also custom design chocolates and chocolate showpieces for buffet tables. The chocolates are made every day and new flavors are always being experimented with.
In addition to the large selection of dark chocolates they carry, Chocolee also has some items of the milk chocolate variety available.
Every Saturday and Sunday we sell warm fried chocolate beignets!

After sampling some seriously A+ truffle, courtesy of an out of town guest who stumbled across this South End confectionery wonder, I was perplexed and decided that I had to go in myself. Unfortunately, the Sunday I made the stroll, Chocolee was already closed for the day. Upsetting...yes...but all together not a waste of time as I discovered that not only can you find amazing truffles at Chocolee, but on the weekends Lee herself prepares the unthinkable in terms of desert. BEIGNETS!!! That's right…warm fried dough surrounding an oooey gooey chocolate center. 3 scrumptious beignets for $7 dollars, so worth it…trust me. I could hardly wait until the following Saturday when I dragged my boyfriend and mother into the adorable Pembroke St store where we savored these treats. As I am sure you could have guessed they were wonderful. You simply must try them yourself!
