The much-lauded brainchild of founder and chocolatier Katrina Markoff, Vosges is known for its astounding craft and artistry, as well as its intriguing and flexible subscription options.

Vosges has two options for subscribers. The first is a collection of bars and bonbons, from which you may choose any combination to create a custom box. Simply check the box labeled "subscribe and auto-ship" for a discount and recurring shipment. All items purchased in the same transaction will ship together at the same time every month, and you can customize it at any time.

Items in this collection include bars such as Mo's Dark Chocolate Bacon, Black Salt Caramel Exotic, Dulce de Leche, and Banana Coconut. Bonbon selections include the nine-piece Peanut Butter Bonbons box, the nine-piece Caramel Marshmallows, and the half-pound Bapchi's Caramel Toffee. The price of individual items varies.

The second subscription option is a Chocolate Club, of which there are two: the Signature Club Haut-Chocolat and the 13 Moon Chocolate Lunar Club, a delectable, chocolate-fueled ritual journey through the lunar cycle for around $900. The Signature Club draws on Vosges collections like Dark Chocolate Truffle and Library of Exotic Chocolate Bars, as well as the aforementioned bonbon collections, and is available in three-, six-, and 12-month increments.

Each three-month period costs about $190, so it's approximately $370 for the six-month bundle and about $730 for the year. Cheap? No. Unparalleled? Probably. Vosges ships to the U.S. and Canada, with free ground shipping on orders of $80 or more and free express shipping on orders of $135 or more.

Sometimes subscriptions allow you to play a part in a producer's research and development process. Like many food artisans, makers of craft chocolate often create limited-edition offerings that they roll out first for their most loyal, enthusiastic customers.

That's what the Brooklyn-based, bean-to-bar producer Raaka Chocolate's subscription box is all about. They call it First Nibs, and every month gets you two different limited-edition bars made in small batches. All of the company's chocolate is vegan and free of gluten and soy.

Past examples include flavors such as Sorrel Punch Swirl, Orange Halva, Maple Shay, and Oat Latte. You can also choose to receive a third bar from Raaka's permanent collection, which Raaka selects based on that month's exclusives. Flavors in the permanent collections include bestsellers such as Oat Milk, Bourbon Cask-Aged, and Pink Sea Salt.

The cost of the two-bar subscription is around $20 per month, and the three-bar bundle is about $25 per month. Choose to receive your chocolate either every month or every two months. Shipments go out on the 15th of every month from Raaka's factory in Brooklyn, New York. Shipping is free within the continental U.S.
