Single-origin gift boxes

In the lead up to Valentine’s Day, French chocolatier zChocolat is launching a range of chocolate gift boxes.

Each gift box in the collection includes a selection of dark, white and milk single-origin couverture chocolates from Venezuela and the Ivory Coast.

Customers can choose to fill the gift boxes with a giant, half pound chocolate heart filled with praline, an assortment of 12 heart-shaped chocolates, or write out a special date using zChocolat’s signature numbered chocolates.

The boxes themselves are handmade from mahogany in the Jura region of France and adorned with a delicate inlaid filigree key. For that personal touch, zChocolat offers customisation options such as message engraving, printed photos on the box or card, monogramed wax seals, and a heart-shaped locket.

The chocolates can be delivered to over 240 countries for the flat rate of €15 ($18).
