I.G.P. Piemonte Hazelnut Pralines

My husband loves chocolate and hazelnut so I ordered these bonbons for his birthday. He was surprised and pleased because he had eaten this brand of chocolate in the past. I loved it too! He taught me to let it melt in my mouth for maximum taste! So good! It is literally the best chocolate I have ever eaten! We will definitely purchase again!

Delicious. Chocolates for every palette! Hazelnut praline is a chef’s kiss combo. I adore Vosges’ offerings, they’re truly a cut above the rest.
Treat yourself. Decadent. Delightful. Delicious.

Mom loved them.

It's always fun when you've been married for decades, yet still discover something new about your spouse. I heard my wife discussing her enjoyment of hazelnuts with a friend, yet we seldom buy these at the store. Saw the IGP Piemonte Hazelnut Praline Bonbons when placing one of our favorite truffle orders and gave them a try. What a delight to have found yet another delicious recipe of Katrina's and add a new favorite to our list for repeat orders.

Beautiful presentation - the bonbons look wonderful and came beautifully packaged; very giftable. And they tasted delicious! The perfect amount of nutty crunch and creamy texture mixed together. I also enjoyed the little booklet they included that explained the background behind the Piemonte hazelnuts, made me appreciate them more.

Such delicate layers and mixtures of so many exotic and unique ingredients.

These are amazing! I've never had hazelnut bonbons this luxuriously rich before.

Decadent
Amazing and the perfect gift for a foodie

I recently placed a Valentine's Day order to surprise my adult children, their partners and my spouse. We had a variety of chocolates that were one of a kind and delicious!

Absolutely delicious! I have never had a hazelnut chocolate like that before

Perfect praline bite! Right balance of filing to chocolate. Not overly sweet.

Arrived early in perfect condition. Chocolates are just superb and flavor and texture...I'm very particularly about Chocolates, and these are the best I have ever had!

Always perfection in chocolate!

a very tasty confection for the hazelnut lovers out there. Pairings were delightful and always love the chocolate usedto enrobe.

Very good chocolate

My husband is a very hard person to give a gift to. He loves this chocolate so much that after I first gifted it to him on Valentine’s Day last year, I’ve already repeated it for his birthday and Christmas. He loved it every single time :-)

Best chocolate ever, seriously. I buy these for presents all the time and this package stayed in our house for a very brief period of time because my husband loves them. Highly recommend!

The recipients were very pleased with this gift!!
They said it was smooth and fragrant!!

The most delicious pralines bonbons! Creamy with a bit of crunch. Absolutely delectable!

Tasting notes

Appearance. The bar has a glossy, even surface and a satisfying, clean snap when broken.
Aroma. First whiff opens with roasted cocoa and toasted nuts; a secondary note of dried cherry appears as it warms.
Texture. Silky on the tongue with a steady melt; a faint graininess emerges only toward the finish, which keeps it from feeling ultra-luxurious but still very pleasant.
Flavor profile. Mid-weight dark chocolate: cocoa-forward, sweetened with brown sugar, a mild citrus brightness that prevents monotony, and a restrained bitterness that gives structure without harshness.
Finish. Tannic and slightly drying, with a short nutty echo that invites another bite.

Pairing and serving suggestions

• Drink: Black coffee or a medium-bodied red (e.g., Merlot) for contrast; for a nonalcoholic option, try a smoky oolong.
• Food: Toasted hazelnuts, dried cherries, or a slice of aged Manchego.
• Serving temp: Best at 18–20°C (64–68°F) to let aroma and texture show.
• Portioning: Break into small pieces to savor the evolving flavors across multiple melts.

Quick verdict

A reliably excellent chocolate for everyday enjoyment: well-balanced, aromatic, and satisfying without being showy. Great for gifting or keeping on hand for a thoughtful, grown-up treat.

silky smooth milk chocolate with a slightly crunchy center .. perrfection

Delicious, nutty, soft, the perfect treat.

Divine. Look this word up in the dictionary and you should find this chocolate. It is THAT good.

Love these chocolates whether I order them online or in store, but it was pretty awesome to get great service AND great chocolates...in the airport no less!

These are divine. The hazelnut center is so fresh and delicious, I feel like a squirrel finding a good nut.

I bought these to take to a small gathering with family and friends and they did not disappoint. The chocolates were rich and creamy, with just the right amount of added flair. The presentation was excellent and the quality of the craftsmanship shined when we opened the box. We will definitely be back for more chocolates the next time we are in Chicago.

Ordered these for a friend's birthday who Loves Hazelnut and was the perfect surprise present delivered on his doorstep. He enjoyed them.

The box itself is beautifully designed, making it perfect for gifting. Each chocolate is carefully placed, showcasing a variety of shapes, textures, and colors that add to the luxurious feel.

The Hazelnut Pralines are an indulgence that’s worth savoring. Perfect for special occasions, gifting, or simply treating yourself to a moment of pure bliss. Highly recommended!

It is one of the best gifts to send to friends and family. I love that it’s women owned and fro
from Chicago!
