Fine Chocolate
Since 1998

Jean Neuhaus moved to Brussels from his native Switzerland,
opening an apothecary shop in 1857 at the prestigiously located
Galerie de la Reine,
near the Grand Place.
Liquorice, guimauves (similar to marshmallows) and dark chocolate tablets soon joined more traditional
preparations on the display counter – for Jean Neuhaus had the art of fine
confectionary in his blood.
With the assistance of his son Frédéric, he spent an increasing amount of
time preparing and inventing new delicacies to the point where
pharmaceutical products gradually made way for fruit
jellies, caramels and other exquisite chocolate confections. From these humble beginnings,
Neuhaus has emerged as a premier Belgian chocolate maker.
