Italian Ice Cream
(Gelato) Available
You deserve it. Your good taste is why we search the world over for the highest grade of chocolate available, which you will find at both of our locations. We find your chocolate in Europe. On the Equator. Wherever it’s the best. Chocolate comes in gradients of quality. We work only with the most exclusive chocolate that artisan chocolatiers and pastry chefs use.
You will show consummate taste by indulging in and gifting our chocolate truffles, original chocolate bars, and much more.
ORDER TODAY ONLINE, or come by our flagship Bellingham store, 4600 Guide Meridian, or our destination Downtown dessert & drinks shop, 1408 Commercial Street.
Kings and Queens deserve the chocolates that you will enjoy with us! Names that reign, like Callebaut in Belgium and Prelus in France.
What is your reference point for the finest chocolate you can eat? We raise that bar for you with Chocolate Necessities' 30+ years of excellence.
Our top-selling item—delectable truffles—come to you in dozens of flavors, crafted daily in-house with unique, hard-to-find ingredients and original recipes.
They make the perfect gift, either personal or for business clients. World-class Quality drives our passion, and serves you best with every bite.
At our Downtown location, you will indulge in the absolute finest and most authentic Italian Ice Cream available in our region. Here’s why:
We carefully select premium Italian ingredients, using only commercial-grade, Italian-designed equipment. You’ll find Italian Ice Cream is a phrase you use often, and a dessert you crave. A necessity, if you will.
Drop by. Taste. You’ll never look back….
Artisanal Chocolatier Kevin Buck, Founder of Chocolate Necessities:
"Great texture and great taste. That's what people want, and that's what we find for them in the highest quality chocolate and Italian ice cream available."
"This is as good as it gets; you won't find better tasting/quality chocolate anywhere else. I lived in Europe for a few years, and I'd rate this place above the chocolatiers I frequented over there. Seriously, this place is amazing. We are lucky to have them in Bellingham!! Also, they serve the BEST hot chocolate in town (probably the state, if not the country!). If you haven't tried it yet, you are missing out." -Laura R. review from Yelp
"YUMMY! Best Gelato in town. Their drinking chocolate is spectacular (several kinds). Fancy gift chocolates. Our go-to dessert place. If you want ice cream, get their gelato! Nice tables to sit at for you to enjoy the yummies!" -Caroline K. review from Yelp
