Chococo\u2019s first NYC location is now open on the Upper East Side, located at 1293 3rd Ave. The brand\u2019s flagship NYC location is set to open at 500 Madison Avenue on Fifth Avenue on May 2.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Founded by husband-and-wife team Claire and Andy Burnet, Chococo is celebrated for its direct-trade, single-origin chocolate sourced from Ecuador, Colombia, and Madagascar, as well as its use of fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients. For over 20 years, Chococo has won over 130 national and international food awards for their work, and ensures full traceability from cocoa farm to finished products.<\/p>\n<p>The opening of the New York stores is the brand\u2019s first international venture, and will continue to grown with a new location coming soon in San Marino, Italy.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137846527\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137846527 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137846527\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC08668.jpg\" alt=\"An assortment of Chococo chocolate bonbons.\" width=\"960\" height=\"1200\" title=\"British store Chococo brings aritisan chocolate to two brand new storefronts in New York City 2\"  \/><\/a>An assortment of Chococo chocolate bonbons.Photo: Nu Media\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLaunching Chococo in the United States is an exciting new chapter, and New York felt like the perfect place to begin,\u201d said Claire Burnet. \u201cOur Chocolate Houses are an invitation to experience what chocolate can be when craftsmanship and sourcing are never compromised. That\u2019s what Chococo has always stood for. Chocolate inspires us every day and we\u2019re ready to share that with New York.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Like its British counterparts, the New York Chococo locations will feature the brand\u2019s award-winning chocolate, including a rotating seasonal collection featuring signature couvertures, fresh truffles, curated selection boxes, single bars, and artisan hot chocolate. The stores will also feature a specialty coffee program in partnership with Abbotsford Road Coffee, artisan pastries from\u00a0SMOR, and premium gelato by\u00a0Il Laboratorio del Gelato,\u00a0each crafted to complement Chococo\u2019s chocolate.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137846528\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137846528 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137846528\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/DSC01261.jpg\" alt=\"Guests can shop through all of Chococo's artisan treats.\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" title=\"British store Chococo brings aritisan chocolate to two brand new storefronts in New York City 3\"  \/><\/a>Guests can shop through all of Chococo\u2019s artisan treats.Photo: Nu Media<\/p>\n<p>At the Madison Avenue flagship, guests will have exclusive moments not found anywhere else, such as a chocolate tasting where guests can sample selections from over 100 chocolate varieties.
