ROYCE' Chocolate Boston

I’ve been buying Royce for a couple of years. They used to have a small stick in nama chocolate box for picking up chocolates but now they don’t offer it anymore. And the worst part is they’ve also raised the price.

Very nice shop with friendly and helpful staff. I bought some mango chocolate and macha chips. The chocolate here is simply the best.

Best chocolate I had.

The chocolate was sooo good and definitely an eye opener, albeit also quite expensive. Had both the Ghana and champagne from the liquor series, preferred the champagne ones but the other one was also good. The only thing is the chocolate needed to be chilled so it’s not one that can easily be brought as souvenir back home.

Royce chocolate shop offers luxury sweets... I can't believe they've in my neighborhood since 2016... But I never knew it. The Japanese care as much about food presentation, as they do taste, and Royce delivers them both… perfectly! 1. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and highly educated about chocolate… and Japan. 2. The shop’s vibe is laid back, friendly and inviting. 3. Their chocolate displays are minimalist, colorful, and organized. 4. Their customer loyalty program is customer friendly. 5. The backstory and history, of Royce Chocolates, is worth learning. BUT… let's hear about their amazing chocolate confections: highest quality ingredients; melt in your mouth; rich; colorful; intense; unique; gift-worthy; pretty packaging. THE DEAL: if you're looking for a gift, for the friend who has it all, shop here. If they like chocolate... they'll love ROYCE chocolates from Japan!

I'm giving this place five stars because the execution is well done. However, these chocolates all have a kind of malted flavor which I disike. I don't know whether that is common for Japan or whether it is the signature of this place, but it is not my cup of tea. I would prefer to make my own chocolates or go to Gate Comme des Filles, which I believe has the best quality chocolates in Boston. Although the owner there is eccentric.

Amazing Japanese chocolates. Incredible taste and consistency. What's the tip for during checkout?? :)

My favorite is their chocolate-coated potato chips!
