Dandelion chocolates make the list of not unique to SF but still excellent places.
I would say that the buffalo (bison) milk ice-creams, though not unique, are certainly unusual.
I don't dislike Dandelion, but the price/taste ratio is off for me. Considerably better (non-SF) luxury chocolates if one is paying that sort of premium (e.g. Alain Ducasse) -- I used to go occasionally when first in SF, but don't bother now.

PS off topic: but we were in the Central Coast region a month or two ago and saw this local ice-cream place with sheep milk ice-cream: really do
not recommend: first of all, they needed to add all sort of gunk to make it ice-cream (instead of just cream/eggs/sugar/flavours). That aside, it just didn't taste good.
