Ahh the long awaited Venchi store is finally open at Valley Fair Mall!! I have been waiting for this for like half a year ever since I heard about it from a Venchi rep serving Venchi samples at the marketplace in Eataly.
Now if you've been to Eataly, you know they already have Venchi chocolates in many flavors and also gift boxes of their chocolate. So what's the difference? What makes the store even more exciting is that they also have gelato and more!
We first learned about and tried Venchi chocolates from these chocolate stores that were all over Rome during our honeymoon Europe trip. We had the most amazing gelato cone and the saddest part about coming back to the US was not being able to have Venchi again! So it was such an amazing surprise when Eataly opened and had these chocolates! And an even more cherry-on-the-top surprise that Venchi has a store open now!! 😍
The store is in Westfield Valley Fair Mall in San Jose near the center court. It's BEAUTIFUL!
So many different chocolates! They also have gelato, gelato shakes, granitas, hot chocolates, and crepes!
We picked out a bag of chocolates. We also got tiramisu and cremino gelatos and my fave was the cremino - so rich and creamy! Other popular gelato flavors are the pistachio and mango.
Fun tidbit: the pistachios are grown twice a year in Italy, so I recommend trying their pistachio chocolates!
These are the other US locations of Venchi (mostly in NY, Virginia, and Pennsylvania), but there's another one in California opening up soon - in San Diego! Which is quite far from here..so visit the one in Valley Fair Mall! Heads up - there's likely going to be a long line, but the anticipation makes it more exciting. 😛
