Vosges Haute Chocolat

“Chocolate is very emotional. Physiologically it releases the samehormones as falling in love.” –Hasty Khoei Torres, Madame Chocolat

"When I founded VosgesHaut–Chocolat ten years ago, I vowed to create a luxury chocolate experience rooted in a sensory journey, one that would delight even the most discerning of clients and the most passionate foodies. I want the gift giving experience to be simple, seamless, and unique – a reflection of the gift giver, their creativity, and their taste – a chocolate gift with meaning. Chocolate is sexy because anything you do with your mouth is very sensual, It’s a magical food. Cocoa butter melts at body temperature. It changes from a solid to a liquid in your mouth from the contact with your skin. It’s always been provocative. Some people consider it an aphrodisiac, and in 18th century Spain it was banned by the Catholic Church. They thought it was too stimulating, too erotic.” – Katrina Markoff Owner/Founder

I recommend to spice it up and light some fire for the one you seek or the one you have with the Red Fire Hat Box

- a signature purple hatbox embossed with cocoa pods is filled with spicy chocolate bonbons, an Aphrodisiac guided tasting and red feathers.  1/2 lb Red Fire Toffee, Red Fire Tortilla Chips, 1 Red Fire Candy Bar, 1 Oaxaca Candy Bar

My second favorite option for something special is the 

Gatsby Collection-

inspired by the famous love story of the Great Gatsby and the love of his life, Daisy.

Markoff

created a collection of two decadent truffles. Rich dark chocolate swirled with bubbly

Champagne and topped with a red rose petal completes the Gatsby truffle. The delicate Daisy truffle pairs white chocolate with pink

rosé

Champagne from

Reims

and a few drops of rose water, kissed with a pink rose petal atop. The 16 piece box arrives dressed in a prim pin-up girl wrap with secret love notes tucked inside and includes 12 Gatsby and 4 Daisy truffles
