It’s late on a Friday afternoon, and the happy-hour crowd is just beginning to arrive at the Headquarters at Seaport District. The old police compound downtown is still basking in that just-opened glow, and inside Dallmann Fine Chocolate Boutique, owner Isabella Knack is talking about her too-beautiful-to-eat sweet concoctions.
“This is my favorite,” she says, grabbing a piece of sea-salt-caramel chocolate — fleur de sel — from a meticulously designed shelf of perfectly aligned chocolates in the trademark Dallmann powder-blue packaging. “It’s our best-seller, too.”
