Delysia Chocolatier’s award-​winning chocolate truffles continue to gain notoriety worldwide. We were named one of the 2014 Top Ten Best Chocolatiers and Confectioners of America by the International Chocolate Salon and Taste TV. The powerful warmth of our jalapeño tequila truffle awarded us a World Finalist ranking at the 2012 International Chocolate Awards and advancement to the London Chocolate Festival’s International Chocolate Awards World Competition. In addition, Delysia won several awards from the 2013 International Chocolate Salon and Taste TV in their Bridal, White Chocolate, Truffle Artistry, Caramel, and Top Chocolate Bar competitions.

Back home in Texas, Delysia is the exclusive chocolatier for Circuit of the Americas in Austin — the only Formula 1 racetrack in the U.S. And Delysia’s truffles are the featured dessert for events like the Austin Food & Wine Festival’s Taste of Texas, The Wine & Food Foundation of Texas’ Big Reds & Bubbles, and the SFC Farm to Plate.
