I Collected Cute Tablet Chocolates ♡

"Tablet chocolate" may sound unfamiliar...

The term "tablet" means "board," so tablet chocolate refers to board-shaped chocolate. The term board chocolate is something we have been familiar with since long ago.

However, the recent tablet chocolates that are referred to by this name are produced by various brands and shops, with unique designs and toppings that are cute ♡

Just looking at them makes me feel happy.

They are thin and don’t take up much space, and unlike round chocolates, it's not often that you can't tell what’s inside... Making them perfect as wedding favor gifts or a treat for yourself ♡

In this article, I've picked out stylish tablet chocolates that would surely please as gifts.

Tablet Chocolate 【1】CHOCO² Choco au carré

Choco au carré is a brand from the 14th arrondissement of Paris, founded by a pastry chef with experience working at Patrick Roger and Pierre Hermé.

There are two types: tablet and cube, and the tablet type comes in the same outer box ♡

By the way, the cube type is inspired by a Rubik’s cube ♡ isn’t that cute too?

Unfortunately, Choco au carré doesn’t have stores in Japan, and there’s no Japanese-friendly online shop either.

If you want to buy it, you can order through the authentic shop or go to events like Valentine’s fairs in Japan.

They participate annually in the Salon du Chocolat by Mitsukoshi Isetan*

Tablet Chocolate 【2】PARIYA

PARIYA, famous for its shortcake, also offers tablet chocolate ♡

The flavors are Strawberry, Banana Caramel, Caramel Pudding, and Apple Pie.

Each has an illustration on the white wrapping paper over the aluminum, making it stylish.

For a small gift, it would be perfect to just wrap it with a ribbon as it is ♡

The price ranges from 980 yen to 1,180 yen.

Tablet Chocolate 【3】MAYHAWK

The British chocolate maker Mayhawk is a brand started by Connor Haynes, who was a geography teacher and a professional photographer, moved by cocoa cultivation.

The packaging is stylish and cool, and it’s designed by Connor Haynes himself ♡

The designs differ by flavor and cocoa percentage, but aren’t they all stylish...?

This one is beautiful too ♡

I also found such chocolates resembling figs. Unique!

Mayhawk products can be purchased at the chocolate select shop Tomoe Saveur. Prices are in the low 2,000 yen range*

Tablet Chocolate 【4】Gilles Marchal

Gilles Marchal is a popular pastry chef brand known as the "wizard of sweets," who trained at five-star hotels like Plaza Athénée and Hôtel Le Bristol in Paris.

He opened a store in the Montmartre district of Paris, and it’s nice that it’s easy to get in Japan, where it is available at Dean & Deluca ♡

The board chocolate is generously topped with caramelized nuts, which looks delicious and provides a satisfying crunch.

The packaging is simple, so I'd like to beautifully wrap it with a thank-you sticker to give to guests ♩

The price is 2,484 yen.

Tablet Chocolate 【5】AMEDEI

Amedei is a famous chocolatier in Italy.

While there are many male pastry chefs in the industry, Cecilia Tessieri became the first female chocolate master and founded this brand.

The packaging has a classic design ♡ It’s simple, yet luxurious.

The pistachio flavor seems to be popular. There’s also a mini size set of 6 tablets for around 3,000 yen, which could be good for wedding favors.

The price is about 1,200 yen per piece.

➡ You can also buy it on Rakuten

Tablet Chocolate 【6】BERNACHON

Bernachon is a long-established chocolate brand from Lyon, France. Currently in its third generation, and it’s said that only the family knows the method of making chocolate.

Their philosophy of "evolving by staying the same" is wonderful.

The large "B" logo on the packaging is impactful and stylish, isn’t it? ♡

It’s popular in Japan, and it quickly sells out during Valentine’s events.

It has a delicious taste that everyone from children to adults loves – it’s easy to enjoy ♩

In Japan, it can be purchased at the Salon du Chocolat, which is held once a year, or at import shops.

Some people order directly from the authentic shop.

The price is from 1,000 yen per piece.

These stylish and luxurious tablet chocolates from famous brands are something you wouldn’t typically buy for yourself, but you’d be happy to receive them.

They are perfect gifts for chocolate and sweets lovers.

They would also be great as wedding favor gifts or thank-you gifts at receptions ♡

Many of these can only be bought at the Salon du Chocolat, so I look forward to the next event ♩
