About us
Callebaut, approved by Belgian chocolate makers
We believe that when talents come together, something beautiful
will grow out of it. Throughout our history, we have been inspired
by the perfectionism of Belgian chocolate makers, to develop the
premium chocolates they can rely on. In turn, our chocolates
inspire them to new heights of creativity.
Today Callebaut’s chocolate references such as 811 and 823 are
chosen by confectioners, pastry chefs and chocolatiers all over the
world. They have become global standards, often copied but never
equalled in taste, quality and reliability.®
A chocolate for every idea
Our customers rely on us for another reason too: our promise to provide the perfect chocolate for every application. The Callebaut range offers a huge choice of chocolates in almost any conceivable taste, with a composition to suit any of your ideas. It also includes ready-to-use products made with chocolate or compatible with chocolate. Think of fillings, decorations, chocolate mousse powder, sauces and toppings… All sealed with the Callebaut guarantee of quality.
A chocolate to inspire you
When you have spent years perfecting your craft, you want materials worthy of your skills and talent. That’s why we go back to the source: to the equator, to select exceptional varieties of cocoa bean. Thanks to our local presence and our close relationship with cocoa farmers, we have the privilege of selecting the best from their harvest. Our determination to never settle for anything less than perfection has led us to innovations such as Origine or Finest Selection: extraordinary, dark chocolates made with the best cocoa plantations can offer.
A chocolate to make the difference
To us, chocolate is more than delivering a quality product.
Through carefully judged product innovations, Callebaut supports
craftsmen in their daily challenge, helping them to make the
difference with tasty, creative desserts and confectionery.
We also provide answers to the difficulties that many professionals
are faced with: having to do more with a limited staff of qualified
personal. User-friendliness and guaranteed workability are key
values for Callebaut.
For the love of craftsmanship
In the spirit of mutual inspiration, we enable our customers and
their staff to learn more about chocolate in our Chocolate
Academies. There, they can follow practical and theoretical courses
given by experienced technical advisors.
Further, Callebaut offers a platform for up-and-coming chocolate
talent from all over the world: the World Chocolate Masters. In
this international competition, chocolate professionals can show
their creativity and professionalism before a live audience and
jury.
At the service of our customers
Callebaut Chocolate Ambassadors pass on their chocolate know-how and techniques to other craftsmen all over the world. These Chocolate Ambassadors are independent professionals who work with Callebaut products and know them intimately. They represent Callebaut in the different markets, help us in testing new products, and keep us informed about coming trends and changes in the markets. And so the two-way process continues, in a never-ending story of chocolate.
