The Original Seashells. Since 1958.

About us

We can't tell you everything about us, but we can give you a taste. Guylian has been sharing its wonders with the world since Guy and Liliane began crafting fine Belgian chocolate in 1958. Since then, our artisanal chocolate creations have captured gazes, charmed tastebuds, and stirred imaginations. Some say it comes down to our seashell’s irresistible praliné filling made from in-house roasted hazelnuts. Others say it’s the inspiring shapes and delicate marbling. We believe it’s the sense of delight evoked by our chocolate that makes every occasion feel like a special occasion. What do you say?

    📺 November 24th, we're featured in SOS Piet XL, one of Belgium's most beloved cooking shows! In this upcoming episode, Piet Huysentruyt will create two delicious recipes with our iconic Seashells: Guylian Cookies and a rich Guylian Chocolate Ganache. This collaboration is more than just product placement; it’s an invaluable opportunity to bring our brand directly into the heart of consumers’ kitchens. Seeing a product used in an appealing, real-life setting makes it easier for viewers to imagine using it themselves, transforming brand awareness into inspiration. And as we know, recipes have the power to build a lasting emotional connection with consumers, turning a simple ingredient into a favourite tradition. By merging our brand with SOS Piet's expertise, we hope to spark culinary creativity and showcase the versatility of our iconic Seashells. Stay tuned for some irresistibly indulgent ideas! #Guylian #SOSPietXL #VTM #ProductPlacement #BelgianChocolate

    Around the world, chocolate is not only a personal treat but also a thoughtful gift for special occasions. Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights celebrated by millions globally, symbolizes the triumph of light over darkness. Taking place between mid-October and mid-November, Diwali traditions include decorating homes, shops, and public spaces with rows of lighted lamps or 'diyas' 🪔, as well as exchanging gifts and sweets with family and friends. As a trusted premium brand, Guylian’s 100% Fairtrade Belgian chocolate Seashells make an exceptional choice for Diwali gifting. Crafted with care from Fairtrade-certified cocoa, our chocolates are not only a delightful treat but also a symbol of quality and sustainability. Guylian is globally available, making it easy to share with clients, partners, or loved ones worldwide, embodying both taste and thoughtfulness this Diwali. #Guylian #BelgianChocolate #Diwali2024 #SeasonalGifting

    At Guylian, we believe that indulgence can - and should - go hand in hand with corporate responsibility. That's why we are proud to unveil our new premium box design, where 100% Fairtrade Belgian chocolate meets sustainable innovation. While our fully recyclable packaging re-design was first rolled out in 2022, we are now removing the plastic film from the outside of our iconic Seashells packaging, replacing it with a sleek, fully recyclable central closure which opens in two parts for easy access to the marbled chocolates. Each tray of Seashells is also securely sealed to ensure freshness. This refined design not only enhances the luxurious feel of our chocolates but also reflects our ongoing commitment to reducing environmental impact. In addition, inside our packaging you can read the enchanting origin story of Guylian, from the romantic holiday of Guy and Liliane Foubert to the creation of the first chocolate Seashells. #Guylian #BelgianChocolate #PremiumGifting #sustainability

    This week, Guylian proudly highlights its status as Belgium’s largest Fairtrade A-brand in the chocolate industry during the Week of Fair Trade. Since 2022, our world-famous Seashells have been made exclusively with Fairtrade-certified cocoa, reinforcing our commitment to fair trade and sustainable farming practices. By using Fairtrade cocoa, we ensure that farmers receive a guaranteed minimum price that covers the cost of sustainable farming. When market prices exceed the minimum, the higher rate is paid, providing a safety net and stability for farmers. In addition, the Fairtrade premium supports projects that improve farmers' quality of life. From investing in more efficient farming techniques to building schools and hospitals, we are dedicated to making a positive impact in the communities where our cocoa is grown. 🌱🍫 #Guylian #ChooseFairtrade #BelgianChocolate #Sustainability #FairTradeWeek Fairtrade Belgium #BeTheChange and make trade fair ✊
