Luxury Packaging
Our ballotins are traditional French boxes are filled with loose chocolates and gently wrapped with a beautiful ribbon. Most chocolate in France is sold by weight and we apply the same principle here in order to give you a generously filled box.

We make chocolate by hand daily so it is always fresh. We do not use a lot of sugar (a preservative). 

Therefore our chocolate is best consumed when you first receive it.  

Chocolates may be fresh up to about 3 weeks from the time of receipt.

All chocolate, especially truffles, are sensitive to heat and humidity. 

The optimal storage temperature is 64F / 18C.  

It is important to store them in a cool, dry location until consumption.

If you have a wine refrigerator, that is a good option.  

If you need to store them in the kitchen refrigerator, wrap them in a tea towel and keep them in the crisper to minimize humidity.

SHIPPING: Chocolates are shipped with ice packs and in insulated kits during the warm seasons (for Northern US) and all year round (for Southern US) to ensure they are intact and delicious!

SHIPPING SERVICES: We use UPS as our default service.  Please indicate if you have a preferred shipper when placing your order.
