Belgium: Choc Full of Fun

Forget Love… Fall in Chocolate!

Belgian chocolate has been a lure for lovers, the indulgence of kings and today, everyone’s favorite sweet. The country’s reputation for chocolate began with the creation of the praline in 1912 by Jean Neuhaus, founder of the iconic Neuhaus Chocolatier. Belgian chocolates stand out from the rest because of the use of only natural products. Even in today’s technology driven world, Belgian pralines continue to be made by hand and different flavors are created by adjusting the amounts of sugar and cocoa in chocolate mixtures.
