Chocolatier Galler
Chocolate is a magic word!
Say it out loud, and faces light up...
Is there anyone who does
not have a warm and tasty chocolate
memory somewhere in his life?
-Jean Galler, Purveyor to the Royal Household
Background
Founded by Jean Galler in 1976, the Galler chocolate-making business is above all a family concern. Supplier to the Belgian royal court, Jean Galler sends his chocolates to every corner of the world.
Jean Galler's company has grown since he created it in 1976, at the age of 21, but its fundamentals have stayed the same:
|
the passion for chocolate
the love of perfection
the dedication to perfection

Galler's range of products
Pralines
Galler pralines are always made in a craftsman-like way. They contain neither artificial aromas nor colorings. Lightly sweetened, they allow you to appreciate first and foremost the real taste of pistachio, vanilla, or honey. Discover a maximum of taste in the small Galler pralines.
Chocolate bars
The first Galler chocolate bar appeared in 1976: the famous Milk Praliné. Today the selection
comprises 25 varieties.
Chocolate tablets
In 1993, Galler was the first to launch onto the Belgian market a chocolate made of 70% cacao-a very high level of cacao. Thanks to two years of research, neither acidity nor bitterness detract from the luscious taste of this chocolate. Chocolate fragrances will linger in your palate minutes after you savor the tablets.
Langues de chat
The langues de chat (cat tongues) were born in 1995. They are the fruit borne of a meeting between two passionate people: Philippe Geluck, of whom the parents said: "He would sell his soul to the
devil for chocolate," and Jean Galler, to whom life without humor would not be worth living. Boxes of langues de chat have become the ultimate Belgian gift. They have made young and old go weak in the knees. One tin contains 18 langues de chat, laid out like an accordion.
