Vosges Haut Chocolat - Chicago, Illinois

London photo guide blog

お土産にいただきました。
個性的なフレーバーにちょっとびっくり。日本人にはターメリック＆ジンジャーはそのフレーバー名から敬遠されました。
私も名前からターメリックってなんだったっけ？あ　カレーの黄色いスパイスかぁ～変わってるな～と思いました。
私は抹茶を食べてみました。日本人の発想からすると抹茶はホワイトチョコが抹茶味で色はグリーン・・・というのが普通だと思うのですが、ここの抹茶味は普通のチョコレートに抹茶が入っており、色はもちろんチョコレートのダークな濃ブラウンそのもの。。。まずその見た目にインパクトです。
日本人の方だったらご想像できると思いますが、カカオとほろにがい抹茶がかぶった味で、日本の抹茶チョコでよくある抹茶ミルク味を期待していたら肩すかしかも。
日本にはないフレーバーということで珍しくいただきました。

The packaging and care that go into the presentation and experience of this chocolate is unlike any I’ve encountered.

This is how chocolate should be: ethically grown, harvested, and processed, simple, creative, and delicious.

Some of the best chocolate I’ve ever experienced!

I bought these one for myself as an early birthday gift. I was NOT disappointed, and I know my chocolate 🙂

My ONE critique is that I shouldn’t have to buy a $90 box of chocolate to learn what the flavors are. There is no easy way to find them online and that’s not okay.

Only when you open a box do you learn what the other boxes had inside that you didn’t order. I’ve posted that list below because I feel a buyer should know what they’re buying. I almost didn’t purchase because that bothered me so much: you charge such a price but don’t tell someone what you’re even selling.

I’m not sure if that’s intentional or not, but I think it’s a cruddy practice.

I’m glad I didn’t let that stop me from my purchase 🙂

Totally worth it because it tastes so GOOD ? ?

The DEEP MILK CHOCOLATE with CRISPY HAZELNUT was so good.

Will definitely be buying more.

‘I have only ordered chocolates as gifts directly off of their website for gifts for people the past 2 Christmases. The recipient has called after receiving the chocolates with RAVE reviews, only to ask that I buy them again for them the next time they need a gift.

Vosges Hauts Chocolats are the BEST and the MOST DELICIOUS chocolates that you have eaten in the entire world! After tasting these chocolates, you quickly realize the difference between mass-produced chocolates and chocolates, such as Vosges, that are produces in smaller batches, The taste is exquisite, and you can truly taste all of the ingredients in one of their truffles, such as dark chocolate and Kalocsan paprika; or how about cacao dark chocolate and raspberry rose gelee…. Those are just two of the wonderful flavors you can try that no other brand of chocolates will put together. Don’t miss out and make sure to try these at least once and also to send a box to a friend or family member that you care about or is celebrating a holiday/birthday!

I'm not normally a chocolate person, but I'm a fan of Vosges. The bacon bar is my favorite, but I like exploring all of the unique flavors. I'm looking forward to trying the fruit and cheese flavored bars, and I'm sure my wife will live the chanterelle dark chocolate bar.

I purchased the 16-piece truffle sampler online for my mother in WA for Mother's Day. I ordered 5 days before MD with 2 day shipping. I got an email that the shipping would be delayed due to hot weather for product control.

My mom received the order 4 days after MD. The truffles arrived by UPS wrapped in 5 freezable "ice" bags. I live in CA, so I didn't get to see or taste the truffles, but my brothers, one of whom went to culinary school, were there and got to share in the sampling.

My mom said she sampled a white chocolate truffle even though she hates white chocolate and it was to die for. My brother, who went to culinary school, particularly loved the olive truffle as he described it.

I come from a family of cooks, so when my mom says these chocolates were:

1: a marvel to look at as she opened the box to see the beautiful decorative pieces it means a lot.

2: If she described horseradish truffle and white chocolate, her least favorite, as to die for, that means a lot.

3: If I can impress my brothers with a culinary treat, that really means something to me because I try to impress them because of their skills to turn vegan food into mouth watering entrées.

My mom taught us to cook, but she always embedded us to spread our wings to create our own dishes out of raw ingredients, no recipes.

My mom said this place deserves 5 stars. Even if the delivery was late, the product control was worth the wait.

Thank you for the chocolate delight, my mother loved!
