Gift-Ready Experience
Elegant packaging designed for gifting, turning every bite into a memorable moment.
Wow, wow, wow! The chocolate is absolutely delectable. Venezuelan chocolate. Many different types of flavors. Truffles, chocolate with nuts, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, macaroons.
Beautiful and best tasting chocolates! I moved to a different state, but I am glad they have shipping available. They are memorable.
Amazing chocolates, tons of flavors, and shipped right to the house (with tons of padding and cooling packs). My favorite was the mango habanero and the 70% Venezuelan! Definitely recommend going in person if you can or ordering online.
The best chocolate that I have tried before. Pay attention everyone!!!!!You’re not buying chocolate, you’re buying experience and love !!!!
This place made my daughter’s wedding so unique that everyone asked about the chocolate!! Unparalleled personalized customer service, awesome tasting delicacy chocolate, we don’t have the heart to finish them. My daughter ordered 350 chocolate boxes with their initials on them, they looked too cute on tables and very unique. The staff even sent us a small box extra of amazing chocolates!! Highly recommend Araya, will definitely order from them again!!!
Terrific chocolates, with a ton of variety (including non-dairy and vegan options) — and the most friendly, thoughtful folks you can imagine behind the counter. This has been my go-to spot for Mother’s Day for the last two years! They ask what my mom likes, and can customize their gift boxes accordingly. Go support a local, family-run business!
