You will probably find those in your home country as well. It's good chocolate but if you want something exceptional and typically Antwerpian - read on.

I like you to present the best chocolate makers in Antwerp. Those top 3 are the best in their métier.

Burie

Lieven Burie of the Burie chocolate shop took over when his father died suddenly. Already at school, this young talented man showed creativity only artists have (I was sitting just a few desks further). He now designs everything in chocolate and his store displays are often as attractive to watch as to bite in to it.

famous-chocolate-in-belgium Yes this is not cheap, but you get only the very best quality and the finest taste experience in this place.

2000 Antwerp

Del Rey

The finest of the finest, the best of the very best! No superlative can describe the chocolate combinations they have. Recently they expanded to the country of the rising sun (Japan) where they are also extremely successful.

They have a nice tasting room where you can eat small dishes and delicious cakes and pastries.
Del-Rey is more then a chocolate maker. He’s an artist that would be top chef in every food category. We’re lucky he choose chocolate and pastries. famous-chocolate-in-belgium

Goossens

Gossens makes one of the best and Famous Chocolate in Belgium, he can make whatever you request. Last year, the American ambassador ordered 1500 chocolate American stamps of 1 kg and a lot of them when strait to the Whitehouse.

As we have a tradition in Belgium of giving sugar beans for the birth of a child. Goossens made a giant white sugar bean for the birth of the crown princes of Belgium. It was worth a mention in the Guinness book of records!

He also invented the chocolate hands filled with Elexir d’Anvers you find everywhere in the city. They are delicious!

chocolate Drawing on several decades of experience, Master-Confectioner Goossens has become a household name in the Belgian chocolateEls, Erik and H.R.H. Princess Mathilde industry. Our range of fine, handmade chocolates, which has been improved continually over the years, is of superior quality.

We love his chocolates and buy it every time we go to Canada. My brother in law, the little man is only eighth couldn’t believe his eyes when I brought the Christmas chocolates from Belgium. It wasn’t just the taste – the chocolates are so beautifully crafted it’s a pity to eat them.
