Teuscher: Distinctive Chocolates from Switzerland
Filed under: Dining

On a blustery day in the Alps some 70 years ago, a curious man was thinking differently about chocolate. That man, Dolf Teuscher, soon started a chocolate company of the same name. Nearly a century later, Teuscher Chocolates of Switzerland is one of the world's finest chocolatiers – and a Luxist nominee in the best chocolate candy category.
Dolf Teuscher founded the company in 1932, wandering far from his Alpine roots to comb the globe for the best cocoa, marzipan, fruits and nuts he could find. Over years of experimentation, he developed the distinctive recipes that brought Teuscher to the pinnacle of the chocolate world today.
Dolf's son, Dolf Teuscher, Jr., now oversees an international confectionary empire with stores in major cities from New York to Qatar to Singapore. Its kitchens in Zurich make over 100 varieties of chocolates using the original recipes; all of its products are free of chemicals, additives and preservatives.
