Jean Neuhaus settles in Brussels and opens a

pharmacy in the prestigious “Galerie de la Reine”.

He covers his medicines in a layer of

chocolate to make them more palatable.

1857

Louise Agostini, Jean Neuhaus Jr’s wife, designs an elegant

gift box in which the chocolates are attractively presented.

This box, called the “ballotin”, becomes the must-have gift.

1915

1912 Jean Neuhaus Jr. expands his grandfather’s idea

replacing the medicines with fresh cream, thus

creating the first filled chocolate. He calls it

“praline”, which becomes an immediate success !

1937 The chocolates “Bonbon 13” and

“Astrid” are created and become true

Neuhaus classics. Today, they are still

made according to the original recipes.

Neuhaus introduces the “Caprice” and

“Tentation” during the World Exhibition in

Brussels – refined filled chocolates with our

exclusive nougatine, filled by hand with cream or

ganache. They remain the Neuhaus icons today.

1958

1960 In 1959 and 1960, Belgium celebrated the weddings

of Prince Albert to Paola and King Baudouin to

Queen Fabiola. To mark the occasion, Neuhaus

created 4 new chocolates, named after the royal

family: “Baudouin”, “Fabiola”, “Albert” and “Paola”.

Today Neuhaus is the market leader in the luxury

chocolate sector in Belgium. The company’s

strategy is focused on international growth,

and the chocolatier currently has over

1000 sales points in 40 countries. It is one of

the few chocolate companies still manufacturing

in Belgium. Neuhaus is an official supplier of

the Belgian Royal Court.

Neuhaus undergoes a transformation.

Its boutiques are given a splendid new look,

with a distinctive colour palette that includes

warm coral and elegant chestnut brown.

THE BEST INGREDIENTS

Only the best ingredients are used in our recipes.

All ingredients are judiciously selected according

to their origin, quality and taste. For instance,

we use almonds from Faro (Portugal) or from California

depending on whether or not they are to be roasted and

depending on the recipes in which they will be used. To

this day, this task is handled by our “Master Roaster” who

rigorously oversees the roasting process to bring out the

full bouquet of aromas. For its chocolate, Neuhaus always

selects the best harvests from a variety of different origins,

such as chocolate from Peru and Java.

CONTINUOUS INNOVATION

Neuhaus creates delicious chocolates inspired

by a long standing tradition since 1857.

The company owes its success to its know-how that

is the culmination of tradition, innovation and

uncompromising quality. The dynamism of Neuhaus is

also the result of our unrelenting quest to restyle and

update our praline ranges and to come up with new

creations aimed at offering only the very best chocolates.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Many of our icon chocolates are still made by

hand and prepared according to the original recipes.

The recipe for Neuhaus chocolate itself is a secret that

has been carefully guarded since the very beginning.

This chocolate is unique to Neuhaus and is

distinguished by its perfect balance and refined flavour.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Neuhaus is committed to ensuring the cocoa

growers and their families in Ivory Coast enjoy a

better quality of life. By financing the construction

and maintenance of a primary school, we are

giving the children in the local community of

Bodjonou the chance of a better future.

Neuhaus also organises training programmes in

good agricultural working practices and business

management for the local cocoa growers in

Bodjonou. We are making every effort to maintain

sustainable cocoa supplies and renewable

eco-friendly harvests. By raising their productivity

and improving the quality of their cocoa, the

farmers get better prices for better harvests.
