B.	Cupcake Jones 307 NW 10th Ave Portland, Oregon	Great Cupcakes, tasty and delicious, very good stuff, what can I say more?
C.	50 Plates 333 NW 13th Ave Portland, Oregon	There's plenty to say about the delicious food and speedy service at 50 Plates. But for the purpose of today's tip, I'd like to focus on their DRINKING CHOCOLATE. The dessert menu, in addition to many chocolate-based confections, offer three types of drinking hot chocolate. The milk is brought to the table pipping hot, next to a frozen stick of fudge. Patrons melt as little or as much as they want of the fudge in the milk. Personally, I dumped the whole thing in the milk the first time, and found it a bit too sweet. Now I'm using 2/3 of it. Enjoy!
D.	Sahagun 10 NW 16th Ave Portland, Oregon	Elizabeth Montes uses local ingredients, including her dad's jalapenos, to make small, fun, crazy good truffles. The shop is easy to miss, tucked in a small side street, but it's worth the trip. Watch out for limited hours of operation.
E.	Pix Patisserie 3402 SE Division St Portland, Oregon	Pix Patisserie makes the most divine blue cheese truffles. Seriously! The blue cheese is surrounded by a dark chocolate crust then dipped in cocoa powder. Unbelievably good.
F.	Alma Chocolates 140 NE 28th Ave Portland, Oregon	Is it a sin to eat a Virgin Mary made of dark organic chocolate, and covered with hand-brushed edible gold? If so, see you in hell.
G.	Sweet Masterpiece 922 NW Davis St Portland, Oregon	If you like raw chocolate, and/or if you have diabetes and are looking for a sugar-less version of your favorite truffle, this is your shop. They also do a great job combining spices and chocolate (especially ginger, cinnamon, and hot pepper). Note that their hot cocoa and many mochas are a nice touch in winter!
