Thegourmet chocolate company based in Pennsylvania is led by Stéphane Lesaint, a French chocolatier with over a decade of experience. LeSaint Chocolate's gourmet chocolate assortments are crafted with the highest quality, beyond fair trade ingredients, the brand says. It also offers vegan and nut-free options. 

All of the brand's luxury chocolate collections are made in fresh small batches to offer customers a selection of truffles, bonbons, pavés, and pralines. The award-winning chocolatier and founder of LeSaint Chocolate, Stéphane Lesaint, states, “I love cooking, and I especially love pastry and chocolate. Growing up in Normandy, my father was a charcutier and later a chef in our town’s local hotel. My dream was to be a chef, like my father.”

The company's gift collections feature hand-wrapped traditional French ballotin boxes with a silk ribbon. Every order has the option of adding a note printed on stationery for meaningful personalization.
