Unique virtual tasting experiences:
At Delysia’s Virtual Chocolate Tasting Experience, participants will broaden their culinary palate as they explore the aromatic and flavor profiles of chocolate with our systematic, immersive approach to tasting Delysia’s artisanal handcrafted chocolates. Our virtual tasting events are live experiences, hosted on Zoom and personally facilitated by our award-winning chocolatier and owner, Nicole Patel.
Indulge in our newest chocolate confections created specifically with the theme of each tasting in mind. Showcasing our range of creativity, be the first to discover these unique flavors only available in our expertly guided virtual events. Test your knowledge with an interactive game of trivia and compete for your chance to win a specially curated Delysia gift box. Learn techniques to properly savor fine chocolate during this exclusive tasting experience featuring a game night of fun. All chocolate truffles are expertly handcrafted in our Culinary Center and conveniently shipped to your door. Join us from the comfort of your home and enjoy 9 unique chocolate truffles while learning about the art of savoring gourmet chocolate.
Turn your experience into a date night, girls’ night in, or fun family gathering by ordering a tasting set for each participant.
Our virtual chocolate experiences typically last 45 minutes, followed by a 15 minute Q&A session. Our chocolatier loves answering questions from participants and tailoring each experience to your interests, so ask your questions at any point during a tasting.
Reserve your exclusive seat:
Tickets must be purchased by the Tuesday evening before the tasting to allow us ample time to ship the chocolates to your doorstep via FedEx expedited shipping.
Upon purchasing a ticket, an emailed receipt and ticket containing the video conferencing link and instructions to set up your trivia team will be sent to your inbox. When making a purchase for the first time, we recommend establishing an account in order to easily view upcoming event reservations. At least 24 hours before the virtual tasting, a Google Calendar invitation containing the video conferencing link will be sent to your inbox.
For orders that requested shipment, the chocolates will ship directly from Delysia Chocolatier to your door via FedEx expedited shipping. If curbside is selected, the chocolates will be available for pickup directly from Delysia Chocolatier’s Culinary Center during our regular curbside hours.
New experiences are released on our online shop at least 4 weeks before the tasting date and seats can be reserved as soon as the tickets become available for purchase. Every order is handcrafted and made fresh, so your chocolates are shipped within two weeks of the tasting date. You will receive an email with a FedEx tracking number once your truffles have been shipped so you can easily follow the package until it arrives at your home.
Tickets to multiple virtual tastings can be purchased at the same time, as long as those tastings are no more than 2 weeks apart. If the virtual tastings are more than two weeks apart, please place separate orders as your order will need to ship separately, since chocolates are made fresh for each tasting.

Prepare for the virtual tasting experience:
Once the chocolates arrive, please remove them from the shipping box and foil bag immediately, as they may have been shipped on ice.

Have a glass of water or bowl of coffee beans alongside you to cleanse your palate between truffles.

Go to the trivia platform, enter the access code, name your team (one team per household), and keep the page open until the start of the trivia event.
