There is a lot to browse at Costco. Sure, the warehouse store's inventory hovers around 4,000 SKUs — a fraction of other big box stores flaunting 30,000 or more — but with items constantly coming and going, even a smaller selection can hide amazing gems to discover. Just ask our writer, who uncovered 15 of the best hidden gems at Costco by browsing the store and digging deep on the Costco website, where they spotted a three-pack of gourmet Cacao Market by MarieBelle New York Dark Chocolate Truffles that would be perfect for gifting this holiday season.
While the $85 price tag seems a bit steep, each prettily patterned box is loaded with fifty handmade truffles, for a total of just under a pound of truffles. And it's actually a steal: A single box of 50 Cacao Market by MarieBelle New York Dark Chocolate Truffles from the retailer's website is listed at $76. The truffles feature an indulgent center and a dusting of cocoa powder on top. "I like to keep them in the fridge and eat them cold," says our writer, though they'd also be lovely shared with friends after a holiday meal.
The three-pack of truffle boxes is an online-only product, but MarieBelle has been popping up at select Costco locations in the New York area, offering single boxes of 50 truffles for around $20 each in limited quantities.
What Costco shoppers think about Cacao Market by MarieBelle Truffles
Our writer isn't the only one who is glad they found these truffles. "Best truffle I've ever eaten! The quality is beyond," raves a reviewer on the Costco website, who notes they'd make a great gift — if you don't keep them all for yourself. An Instagram user stocked up at a Cacao Market roadshow event at an East Coast Costco: "Stopped by for 8 boxes to gift for the holidays!" they revealed.
If you can't get your hands on the Cacao Market by MarieBelle New York Dark Chocolate Truffles in person, or can't wait for that online order, there's another luxury candy at Costco that we adore. The Kirkland Signature Belgian Luxury Chocolates topped our ranking of 10 Costco candies you may not have tried yet, and that box of 46 candies is available in-store for immediate snacking. Packed with fillings like hazelnut cream, caramel, pistachio, and citrus ganache, these chocolates are all produced with sustainable cocoa beans. Life really is like a box of chocolates, so take your pick.
