A Mountain Town,
Then a Front Range Home
High Desert Chocolates began in Sisters, Oregon, a tiny mountain town where we built our craft, learned our customers' names, and earned a reputation as the place where kindness and chocolate met daily.
In early 2026, we packed up the kitchen, the molds, and the recipes, and made the move to Downtown Windsor, Colorado. New town, new neighbors, same handcrafted approach to every truffle, every macaron, every cookie.
Windsor welcomed us in. We're putting down roots, hiring locally, sourcing where we can, and building this into something more than a chocolate shop. Coffee in the morning. Conversation all day. And yes, chocolate whenever the sweet tooth hits.
Three Things, Always
Made by Hand
Every truffle, every macaron, every cookie is made in our shop by us, with real ingredients.
Small-Batch Quality
We make smaller batches more often instead of big batches occasionally. It's slower, it's harder, and it's the only way the chocolate tastes the way we want.
Community First
Our doors are for everyone. Coffee meetups, book clubs, birthday parties, business lunches, you name it. If it brings people together, we want it happening here.
We Wear a Few Hats
We're a coffee shop. An artisan chocolatier. A custom confection studio. An ice cream counter. And a free community classroom. Take your pick or use us for all of them.
The Day-to-Day
From Our New Neighbors
"The best place to have coffee in downtown Windsor. The remodel is awesome, the choice of chocolates is over the top, and they have pastries, breakfast sandwiches, and Walrus ice cream too."

"Literally the best addition to Windsor. No matter what you get it's amazing: coffee, Walrus ice cream, milkshakes, and don't forget the homemade chocolates. The owner is so involved in the city. We are so lucky to have such an incredible place."

"My new favorite place to meet friends for coffee. The environment is clean and inviting, the staff is ridiculously efficient. My personal favorites are the caramel latte and the chocolate-covered espresso beans. I can't wait to try everything on the menu."
