Legend has it that chocolate was a gift of the gods. The cacao tree was supposedly brought to mankind by Quetzalcoatl, the Aztec god who taught mortals how to make a drink from it.

Cocoa beans were used as a form of currency in the Aztec civilization. It was not until the Spanish brought it to Europe after conquering South America in the 16th century, that flavours were added to it such as sugar and vanilla. Eventually the chocolate craze spread to the rest of Europe and America. Ever since then, chocolate has been the indulgence of the rich and later, the favourite of the masses.

Belgian pralines are undoubtedly the finest in the world. Even the Swiss who are renowned for their chocolate have adopted the techniques made famous by Belgian chocolatiers.

What makes their chocolate so delicious is the top quality of cacao beans and sugar used as well as the sheer love and passion of the Belgian artisans for their work.

They make exquisite personal gifts, for family and friends, or mouthwatering corporate gifts, either for clients, customers or as a thank you to employees.
