Where to buy fine chocolate
Finding fine chocolate is not always easy. Some varieties
are available from our shop
and we hope to expand our range over time, however
we can't stock everything and currently only ship
with in the United Kingdom, so here's a list of some
of the better web sites and stores selling fine chocolate,
from around the world:
Web sites
- Seventypercent.com
- of course our best recommendation!
- Chocolate
Trading Co - A well presented e-commerce site
with a good range of chocolate products and some
fine chocolate bars. UK based with world-wide shipping
- Chocosphere
- extensive range of fine chocolate featuring several
of the top producers. US delivery only, but still
a good reference.
- Hypergourmet.com
- quite a mixed bag from this site - Amedei and
Valrhona alongside Kinder Surprise! Canadian site
offering shipping in the US as well.
- Chocolatesource.com
- another US site with a good range of bars and
makers. Also ships in Canada.
- Chocmail.co.uk
- Not a modern site design, but this UK based company
does have a fair range of bars. Shopping appear
to be UK only.
UK Stores
Unfortunately this list of specialist shops is rather
London-centric, reflecting the availability of some
fine chocolate brands around the UK at the moment.
- Harrods
- Selfridges
- Chocolate Society shop
- Rococco
- Villandry
- Mortimer & Bennett
The good news is that many British supermarkets are
now carrying ranges of fine chocolate, including their
own branded versions. Also health food stores around
the country are carrying the many organic bars now
available, and even charity shops like Oxfam are stocking
'Fair Trade' chocolate. Add to that the many corner
stores and garage outlets and service stations selling
Lindt 70% and you could say the outlook is definitely
getting better!
