zChocolat is an elegant chocolate company based out of France. They were founded in the early 2000's by Jean-Philippe Khodara who set out to establish a chocolate brand unlike anything else that was available on the market. The "z" in zChocolat is the mathematical symbol for the infinite range of whole numbers and the 26th number of the alphabet, representing the 26 flavors of chocolate in this store's numbered collection. zChocolat uses high-quality ingredients, exceptional flavors, and abides by very rigorous manufacturing standards.

26 robust flavors

zChocolat offers a wide variety of 26 flavored chocolates, all with a unique number attached to their name and they all come in the same shape. For example, chocolate number 3 is full of rich caramel intermingled with passion fruit, coconut, and mango puree covered in a Venezuelan and Malagasy blend of 70% dark chocolate. Chocolate number 12 consists of a blend of toasted Dutch sesame seeds in a Valencia almond praline encased in 40% West African milk chocolate couverture. Obviously these are extremely fancy, unique flavors that cannot be found anywhere else.

Transparent ingredient information

Each chocolate type has a thorough product description page with all the ingredients, allergens, and nutrition facts. There is no questioning what's in these chocolates and we appreciate the transparency.

Optional add-ons

An assortment of 15 zChocolats is $45.21. You select all the flavors you want, add a personalized gift message if needed, select an image for your box (birthday balloons, flowers, holiday, etc.), decide whether or not you want gift wrapping (for an additional $11.29), if you want to add a mahogany wood accessory to the drawstring pouch of the gift (an additional $11.29), and if you want a concierge to call the recipient of the chocolates to verify the delivery address and let them know a gift is on the way (additional $14.69).

Double the chocolate at no extra cost

Something really neat that zChocolat was doing at the time of this review was doubling all orders at no extra cost. If you order one assortment of chocolates, you'll get a second one that zChocolat says you can send to your gift recipient, keep for yourself, or donate it to a hospital or charity. This is an extremely kind gesture that shows this company genuinely cares about their customers and the community.

Expensive but fast shipping

The cost for shipping from zChocolat is quite a bit more than what you'll pay elsewhere. The cost is $24.42 for up to 5 items. If you're buying more than 5 items, then shipping is $9.50 per item. zChocolat delivers overnight to New York State, a few zip codes in Connecticut, and New Jersey. Chocolate to all other states is delivered in 2 business days. Signatures are always required upon delivery. You'll receive a tracking number via email once your chocolates have shipped and an alert within 3 hours of delivery so you know when to expect the package. All packaging includes insulated containers and refrigerant packs to keep temperatures between 59 and 67 degrees.

Satisfaction guaranteed

You don't have to worry about whether or not you'll be happy with your order from zChocolat since they offer a generous 100% satisfaction guarantee. This means that they will immediately replace, exchange, or refund your order if you aren't completely happy for any reason. It's unusual for a chocolate company to offer refunds, so we are pleased to see how strongly they stand behind their products.

A rich experience

It was no surprise to find that zChocolat has an "A+" rating from the Better Business Bureau. They provide a thorough experience for people looking to give a gourmet, beautiful gift of chocolates. We appreciate zChocolat's dedication to customers and quality. Although this is a slightly expensive place to buy chocolates, you can rest assured knowing this is a one-of-a-kind brand that will provide a rich experience you won't get anywhere else. They've earned our highest rating for chocolate companies.
