Neuhaus

Founded in 1857 in Brussels’ Galerie de la Reine, Neuhaus is the inventor of the Belgian praline. The story began when Jean Neuhaus, a pharmacist, covered his medicines with a fine layer of chocolate. In 1912, his grandson Jean Neuhaus Jr. transformed this idea into the first Belgian praline, replacing the medicine with a delicious filling. Three years later, Louise Agostini created the ballotin, an elegant box designed to protect the delicate pralines and elevate the art of gifting.

Today, Neuhaus continues to combine Belgian heritage, craftsmanship and innovation. Every praline and truffle is developed and crafted in Belgium, in the Maison’s atelier near Brussels, under the expertise of its Maîtres Chocolatiers. Using carefully selected, naturally sourced ingredients and sustainably sourced cocoa, Neuhaus creates refined chocolate experiences that celebrate gastronomy, generosity and meaningful connection.

As a Purveyor to the Belgian Royal Court, Neuhaus shares the best of Belgian chocolate craftsmanship with chocolate lovers around the world. From iconic creations such as the Caprice and Tentation to contemporary collections and elegant gift boxes, each Neuhaus creation embodies the Maison’s belief that gifting is a modern way of caring. More than chocolate, a Neuhaus gift carries a story, an intention and a taste of Belgium.
