Signature Milk | covered in powdered sugar
The Swiss invented milk chocolate. Its distinct flavor, a result of extended “conching”, evenly distributes cocoa butter while promoting flavor development. Conching creates heat that caramelizes the sugars, giving our 34% milk chocolate a distinct caramel taste and a smooth, creamy texture.
Tasting Notes: Whipped Cream, Pear, Vanilla, Toffee
No Peanuts | No Gluten
Salt of the Swiss Alps Dark | covered in a light cocoa powder
A twist on the classic that brings the sweet crunch of our chocolate almonds together with pure alpine salt, straight from the heart of the Swiss mountains. Expertly blended into our decadent dark chocolate, this unique salt creates the perfect balance of sweet and savory flavor in every bite.
Tasting Notes: Salt, Tart Raspberry, Toffee, Mild Black Tea
No Peanuts | No Gluten | No Dairy | Vegan
Signature Dark | covered in cocoa powder
Our proprietary blend of 60% dark chocolate uses all-natural vanilla and cocoa beans from two of the most premier growing regions in the world: Ghana and Venezuela. The chocolate is made using extended conching times to round out the naturally occuring flavors as well as to release volatiles and acids so that the focus is on the cocoa notes, creating a rich yet balanced flavor profile.
Tasting Notes: Blueberry, Dried Plum, Coffee, Black Tea
No Peanuts | No Gluten | No Dairy | Vegan
Extra Dark | covered in a dark cocoa powder
The most intense flavor of them all. This chocolate is created with 80% single origin cocoa using only Criollo beans, a rare delicacy. Unlike chocolate that uses a blend of beans, the single source allows you to taste the distinct flavor created by the climate, soil, and trees of its origin. It also has an extraordinary bold flavor without the astringency that is commonly experienced with extra dark chocolate. It is exceptionally well balanced and uniquely smooth. What’s more, its high cocoa content is rich in antioxidants and boasts heart-healthy benefits.
Tasting Notes: Raisin, Cherry, Licorice, Espresso, Cinnamon, Orange Blossom
No Peanuts | No Gluten | No Dairy | Vegan

We roast our fresh nonpareil almonds to a golden brown. While they are roasting in a large copper kettle, we add sugar to create a thin caramelized shell around each almond, giving them just the perfect amount of crunch. We then mix the almonds with powdered sugar then place them in revolving pans (like a big cement mixer). As they spin, we drizzle in chocolate. The almonds collect more and more chocolate as they roll. As the mixer spins, it rounds out the chocolate to give an even coating to each almond. This intensive process ensures that each almond has the ultimate amount of crunch and decadent chocolate coating.
When we first opened, André would mix our chocolate almonds in a bowl by hand, blending in chocolate to coat the almonds. He would know that there was enough chocolate coating on the almonds when his arm felt like it was going to fall off.
André’s son, Marcel, introduced the panning method we use today, which he learned while training as a pastry chef in Switzerland.
