Verity Chocolate

We happened upon Verity Chocolate while strolling through Somerville after dinner, and I am so glad we walked in. From the moment we stepped inside, we were warmly greeted by the owner, whose energy was absolutely beautiful — welcoming, passionate, and genuine. She organically gave us a tour, walked us through her products, and explained the process behind making her chocolate. You can tell immediately how much care and intention goes into what she does. She shared how important it is not to burn the cocoa beans and to really honor the process — and honestly, you can taste that difference. A lot of places sell chocolate, but not everyone respects the craft. She absolutely does. We tried a few treats: the chocolate chip cookie, the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, and the double chocolate

Just used the chocolate scrub and I’m obsessed. It smells rich and indulgent, like real chocolate, not artificial. The texture is light (not heavy or greasy), and it left my skin incredibly smooth. It feels like a small luxury moment. Highly recommend. The FOOD This is really, really great chocolate. The chocolate chip cookies are perfectly balanced — soft center, slight firmness all around. The double chocolate chip are rich without being too much. The brownie bites are fudgy in the best way. And the drinking chocolate? Cozy, layered, and not overly sweet. You can actually taste the quality. Everything feels intentional and made with care. I’ll absolutely be back.

Stopped by yesterday during the Somerville chocolate walk and my friends and I had such a fun time learning about the history of verity chocolate! We got there a bit late... but the owner was more than happy to still give us a sample and chat more about her business we will definitely be back! She also has teas and drinks which my friend bought a lovely tea she was unable to find anywhere else!

Just walking into Verity is a delight. The shop is gorgeous and the wonderful chocolate aroma welcomes you upon entry. I was welcomed by the lovely proprietress, Ade, who guided me through the offerings and the production process. Her passion was infectious. I had a fabulous cup of chocolate truffle tea, I also purchased half a dozen cookies for a birthday party (they were a hit), the chocolate chai tea, bites and a 90% dark chocolate bar as gifts. The packaging is lovely and the gift wrapping elevated every gift. Verity is a perfect addition to downtown Somerville and I can't wait to return.

Chocolate chip cookie was insane. It was truly perfect! The clusters are great and aren't made with nuts. Everything tastes and feels very fresh. I appreciated the whole rundown of the store! Love having a chocolatier so close!!
