  • 5/5 from Morgan, attended Aug 2025: This class was such a fun experience! Anya was kind, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. You can really feel her passion for chocolate in the way she leads the tasting. She shares so much insight while keeping everything lighthearted and approachable. It was the perfect mix of learning and laughter, and such a great way to spend time together as a team!
  • 5/5 from Joe, attended Aug 2025: I had such a fun time! I feel like I really learned so much about chocolate -- and even about my own taste buds. Turns out I’m a supertaster, so I experience flavors way more intensely than most people! Anya was amazing -- so knowledgeable and informative -- and everything in the package was perfectly organized and easy to follow. I honestly would do this again in a heartbeat!
  • 5/5 from Brooke, attended Aug 2025: This was a wonderful virtual class with a fabulous teacher! Firstly, we received our package in the mail on time and wrapped/packaged very thoughtfully and carefully - beautiful presentation! We were informed on what other supplies we needed to prep before the class started which was very helpful so we could be present and ready to go during the class. The teacher Anya was so kind, passionate about her craft and chocolate of course! Anya was very informative and inclusive during this class - asking us our thoughts, about our flavor pallets, what we were tasting, smelling and feeling! It was so fun to learn about how the pallet works and how everyone has a different experience when doing tastings. We learned a little history on how chocolate is grown and made into all of our favorite sweets we get to eat. The chocolate was absolutely delicious and there was a great variety of flavors and origins which was so fascinating. The tea was wonderfully paired and it was a very delicious and fun experience. I highlight recommend this class for any chocolate lovers!! In our craft kit there was so many goodies from multiple full size craft chocolate bars, real cacao beans, 4 different types of tea & more! I have plenty of leftovers after the class which is such a nice extra treat! Thanks Anya - it was such a fun class and I left with more knowledge and love for craft chocolate!
  • 5/5 from Bryanna, attended Aug 2025: The chocolates were very tasty. I enjoyed getting to know the process of making chocolate and making chocolate tasting an experience!
  • 5/5 from Shannon, attended Aug 2025: Amazing class hosted by Anya! We did a lovely team bonding experience and we all walked away with more knowledge of tasting and flavors as well as lots of chocolate! Would recommend this class to anyone!

Gourmet Boutique was born from a love of travel—stumbling across tucked-away patisseries, swapping stories with local chocolate makers, and coming home with suitcases bursting with sweet, handcrafted treasures. In 2003, those delicious adventures turned into our cozy chocolate haven in Boston’s Back Bay.
Since then, we’ve tasted over 1, 500 chocolates, trekked to cacao farms and sourcing regions around the world, and spent the better part of a quarter-century diving deep into the world of ethically sourced, bean-to-bar chocolate. It’s safe to say—we’ve done our homework (and eaten it too).
Our mission? To share the magic of craft chocolate—and the incredible people behind it. We proudly partner with makers who care deeply about ethics, traceability, and flavor. Through direct trade relationships and responsible sourcing, these artisans uplift farming communities and create chocolates that tell a better, more meaningful story with every bite.
Our sweet spot? Curated chocolate tasting experiences that spark joy, connection, and a little bit of chocolate-induced bliss. Whether it’s for client engagement, executive briefings, or team celebrations, our tastings are built to delight. With over 1, 200 virtual and in-person events for companies like Google, Amazon, and BCG, we know how to blend indulgence with impact.
Want to take it up a notch? We offer irresistible pairings like craft whisky, single-origin coffee, premium teas, and wine. Every experience is guided by professionally trained educators and sommeliers who bring flavor, fun, and rich storytelling to the table.
Let’s create a chocolate experience your guests won’t stop talking about—delicious, ethical, and unforgettable.
Deliciously Yours,
Anya Zelfond, Founder
