Whether you want to impress your friends or learn about the high-end market of Japanese drinks, here are some of the priciest options for you.

Their unique offering Porcelain is a dark chocolate bar crafted solely of pure Criollo beans, sourced from Venezuela. These particular beans are renowned for their exquisite aroma and gentleness.

The name "Porcelain" derives from the creamy color (resembling porcelain) found in these scarce beans. They possess both delicate qualities and natural scarcity.

The texture of this chocolate is velvety smooth, while its flavor profile entices with hints of honey, caramel, and vanilla intertwined harmoniously. Available in 1.75-ounce bars that retail at $90 each, it stands tall among the world's expensive chocolate bars – and is available for purchase online, via Amedei's official website and through other reputable online vendors.

11 Jacques Torres Chocolate

Perfect for impressing guests, Jacques Torres Chocolate offers a hauntingly beautiful centerpiece⁠ — a dark and milk chocolate haunted mansion, adorned intricately with ghosts, bats, pumpkins, and other Halloween motifs.

Measuring twelve inches in height and ten inches wide (while weighing around two pounds) this spooky masterpiece can be yours for $120.

10 Sugarfina's Trick Or Treat

Renowned luxury candy boutique Sugarfina curates the "Trick or Treat Bundle," a delightful gift perfect for those craving variety and quality. Featuring 16 candy cubes and brimming with diverse flavors – ranging from pumpkin pie caramels to dark chocolate sea salt caramels, and champagne bears ⁠to blood orange fruttini – you're sure to find an assortment that pleases your palate.

This bundle also includes a reusable tote bag adorned festively alongside a sheet of spooky stickers — all for $150.

9 Michel Cluizel

Michel Cluizel's Plantation Ganaches is a fancy chocolate gift box containing 70 smooth dark chocolate truffles, and made with seven different types of chocolate. Each chocolate has its own special flavor that comes from the soil, the weather, and how it's made.

These chocolates are carefully created using cocoa beans from Ecuador and Venezuela, and the box looks elegant (with silver leaf and a bit of gold). These chocolates don't have preservatives, soy, or any extra flavors added to them.

Each truffle weighs about the same as ten paper clips. The nutrition facts for every 100 grams of Michel Cluizel Plantation Ganaches are: energy - lots (2442), fat - quite a bit (46), carbs - some (35), protein - not much (5), salt - a tiny bit (0).

You can buy this box online from Michel Cluizel’s website for around $150.

8 Vosges Haut-Chocolat

Hailing from Chicago, Vosges Haut-Chocolat is known for its innovative approach towards exotic chocolate.

The Enchanted Mushroom Library showcases twelve whimsical chocolate mushrooms, each offering distinct flavors – such as peanut butter and banana, or coconut ash mixed with banana - all crafted using organic fair-trade chocolate, and presented elegantly within a charming wooden box priced at $175.

7 MarieBelle Halloween Ganache Box

Known for their artful confections based in New York City, MarieBelle captures the essence of Halloween with their visually stunning Halloween Ganache Box. Consisting of hand-painted ganaches (boasting various enticing flavors including passion fruit, hazelnut, and earl grey tea-infused delights), the box is embellished creatively, depicting traditional Halloween icons such as skulls and spiders.

With 16 pieces per box and priced at $190, these exquisite chocolates are both eye-catching and palate-pleasing. MarieBelle's Halloween Ganache Box is available exclusively via online ordering, through MarieBelle's website.

6 Godiva's Ultimate Halloween Chocolate Gift Basket

A celebrated Belgian chocolatier, Godiva's Ultimate Halloween Chocolate Gift Basket is a dream come true for chocolate enthusiasts.

Packed with an array of premium Godiva products, it spans across chocolate bars, truffles, biscuits, pretzels paired enticingly with popcorn, and coffee, accompanied by a plush pumpkin toy within a festive basket. This luxurious basket carries a price tag of $200.

5 Knipschildt Chocolatier La Madeline au Truffe

There's a chocolate truffle called Knipschildt Chocolatier's La Madeline au Truffe, and is quite fancy – because it has a rare French Perigord truffle inside. The truffle is surrounded by a mixture of heavy cream, sugar, truffle oil, and vanilla.

Then it is enrobed in dark chocolate (which contains 71% cocoa, from one specific bean), and sprinkled with cocoa powder. These truffles are generously portioned at just under two ounces each – reflected in their cost of $250 each, one of the most costly chocolates ever.

You can order them online – but keep in mind that they'll take about two weeks to arrive, as every single truffle is custom crafted to order.

4 To'ak Chocolate

Hailing from Ecuador, To'ak Chocolate is renowned for using ancient national variety cacao beans dating back to pre-Columbian times. Their limited edition Art Series Blend chocolate bar combines four harvests across three years (2015-2018), aged meticulously in various wood barrels.

This results in a complex flavor profile encompassing notes of fruit, flowers, nuts, and wood. With each bar weighing approximately 1.5 ounces (and valued at $385), it claims its place as one of the world's costliest chocolate bars ... but act swiftly, as only 100 bars have been produced.

3 DeLafée Gold Chocolate Box

DeLafée is a company in Switzerland that makes unique gold food. They have eight fancy chocolates, made with high quality cocoa beans sourced from Ecuador and Venezuela.

The chocolates also have pretty gold flakes – which are edible – and with the chocolates comes an old, authentic Swiss gold coin worth $180 by itself. If you want to buy this whole package, it costs $507.

DeLafée's Gold Chocolate box is one of the most expensive chocolate boxes in the world. However, there may be additional charges for shipping and customs for those outside the Euro zone.

2 Noka Chocolate Vintage Collection

Noka Chocolate (which no longer exists) once made excellent chocolate, using only pure cacao and sugar (without any additives or fillers). They made a special set called the Vintage Collection, which had four chocolate bars made with very rare cacao beans from Venezuela, Ecuador, Trinidad, and Côte d'Ivoire.

Each bar weighed 1.5 ounces, and cost a staggering $854; it was one of the most expensive sets you could find anywhere in the world. Noka Chocolate went out of business in 2011, amid allegations of dishonest dealings to increase prices (uncovered by an intrepid blogger).

1 Le Chocolat Box of Extravagance

Le Chocolat, located in Dubai, specializes in fancy custom chocolate gifts for myriad occasions. The Box of Extravagance is a super special treat with 49 assorted chocolates made from top-notch ingredients like saffron and truffles covered in real gold (and even diamonds).

Each delectable piece has precious gemstones inside — either rubies or sapphires — and the box itself is decorated with Swarovski crystals on top, and a silk ribbon on the side. It's a luxurious indulgence that weighs about four pounds and costs $1.5 million — the ultimate in fancy chocolate boxes!

While these are some of the priciest candies available for the 2023 Halloween season (with one exception), bear in mind that expensive treats aren't necessary to satisfy your sweet tooth, and there are numerous affordable options that will delight your taste buds without breaking the bank.
