Those strolling down Newbury Street in Boston can now stop for authentic Italian sweets because a famous chocolate brand has joined the popular strip’s lineup of businesses. Venchi, the renowned Italian chocolate and gelato maker, opened its first Massachusetts “Chocogelateria” at 123 Newbury St., just beneath Diptyque Newbury, this month.
In addition to being the first in the Bay State, Venchi Boston is also the company’s 20th storefront in the United States. “We are very excited to continue to expand Venchi’s US presence with retail locations now in five states along the east coast,” Venchi COO Mark Ellis said in a press release. “We know our fans who have tasted Venchi’s premium-quality Italian chocolate and authentic gelato will be happy to have us close by in Boston.”
