From Baton Rouge to Milan, Hong Kong to Sydney, Hampstead to Carnaby Street, Venchi is primarily a chocolatier with an eye for flamboyant primary designs. This is the Christian Dior of chocolate. Ice cream was introduced only in 2006. The chocolate business dates back to Turin in 1878. The web site even matches chocolate with wines and liquers. The prestige box goes up to £94, so you might need a phd in chocolate blends to fill your box – an empty box is £3.50. The chocoloate cigar is a thing. Currently 85 stores worldwide but also mail order with a £1.50 Chocoviar bonus.
