Neuhaus is the inventor of the praline(a confection consisting of caramel-covered almond or, sometimes, hazelnut.), the ballotin (a decorative rectangular cardboard box with overhanging edges used for packaging chocolate candies), as well as the highly successful Tentation and Caprice chocolate treats (wafer thin nougatine shells filled with coffee ganache and coated with chocolate. Tentation is the milk chocolate version, while the Caprice is the dark chocolate version.). The list goes on.
Their popularity since the beginning has exploded and has attracted such individuals as Prince Leopold and the Prince of Wales. Even His Majesty King Albert II "bestowed upon Neuhaus the title of Accredited Supplier to the Belgian Crown."
Neuhaus has been the "absolute market leader in the luxury praline sector in Belgium and Luxembourg and withholds an international network of nearly 2,000 sales outlets, more than 2,400 tons of Neuhaus products are sold annually in 50 countries." Not only do they sell a lot in retail, but they also run an expansive online store containing a wide assortment of chocolates just waiting to be engorged and enjoyed. You can even customize your own chocolate mix.
To this day, 1 out of 3 of their pralines are still handmade, which makes them one of the last truly dedicated company to strive for high-quality chocolates. Neuhaus "ceaselessly seeks out new methods and ways to apply the exacting quality standards for production. The choice of only the very finest of ingredients has always allowed high quality chocolates to be made."
