Discover Chocolate Differently
Chocolate has a way of bringing people together — quietly, thoughtfully, and with intention.
Our events are designed as shared moments: unhurried, hands-on, and rooted in craft.
Whether gathered around a table, celebrating a milestone, or learning something new together, each experience reflects the same philosophy that guides our chocolate — care for ingredients, respect for process, and genuine hospitality.
Fall & Winter Tasting Series at Vivilicious
Four intimate gatherings. Eight guests around our table. Chocolate, pairings, conversation—and a little science with chocolatier Viviane and chemist Andrew.
Driven by Craft & Chemistry
We both came to chocolate with a researcher’s curiosity—and we still approach it that way. With backgrounds in Ivy League research, we bring two different but complementary perspectives to every Vivilicious experience.
Viviane leads the creative and sensory side of Vivilicious, exploring flavor development, artisan technique, botanical ingredients, and the stories that make chocolate memorable.
Andrew brings another layer to the experience, translating the chemistry of flavor, aroma, texture, and pairing into ideas guests can actually taste and understand.
Put us together at a tasting table and the conversation moves easily between What are you tasting? and Why are you tasting it? That’s where our events become especially fun.
How It Feels
Our chocolate gatherings are not demonstrations — they are conversations.
Guests are invited to slow down, taste with intention, ask questions, and explore chocolate through both hands and senses. There is space for learning, laughter, and quiet reflection alike.
People often leave with more than they expected — not because we aim to impress, but because we take the time to share what we know and love.
What We Host
Vivilicious offers intimate chocolate experiences that balance tasting, learning, and creative participation. Each event is guided by curiosity rather than performance, and shaped to suit the people in the room.
Our signature experiences include:
All experiences are crafted with premium ingredients and thoughtful pacing, allowing guests to engage naturally and without pressure.
Events may be fully hands-on, tasting-focused, or a blend of both.
For gatherings where participation isn’t the focus, we also offer a curated catering option — allowing guests to enjoy our handcrafted chocolates without a workshop component.
Event formats & settings
Group sizes and formats vary, and experiences are shaped collaboratively.
