Our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee ensures that every chocolate you purchase from The Gourmet Chocolate of the Month Club meets your high standards or we will replace it or refund your purchase. Simple as that.

To select our featured chocolatiers, we work closely with Zingerman's®, named by Food and Wine Magazine as 1 of 25 of the World's Best Food Markets. They help us source true artisanal chocolates, hand-made from fresh, wholesome ingredients and crafted in small batches with dedication to innovation and artistry. Many of our chocolatiers have been repeatedly acknowledged in their industry, but often their products have very limited distribution due to their limited production capabilities. All of our chocolates are made to order from secret blends of the highest quality cocoa beans, ripened, fermented, and roasted to perfection. You will taste the difference.

We stand by every chocolate we send you and back it up with our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee and a dedication to responsive, friendly and knowledgeable customer service that's earned us an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Learn more about our chocolate selection process.

Shipping

We ship within the continental 48 United States. We cannot ship to Hawaii or Alaska.

Your first chocolate club shipment will be shipped out via FedEx 2nd Day Service soon after your order is placed. Subsequent shipments will also be shipped out around the same time for each scheduled month. If you’d like to change your monthly ship date, please contact our Customer Service team.

All shipments are sent via Federal Express. Due to the perishable nature of the product, shipments are sent without a signature required to avoid excessive time in the carrier's possession. It is therefore very important that you ship to a location where someone will be there to receive it. Many of our members ship to work locations or to a neighbor who is often home.

Please either call us at 800-625-8238 or email us at [email protected] no later than the 1st of the month to change your delivery address. Or, if you create an account on our website, you'll be able to go to the My Orders section to update the delivery address yourself for any current orders.
