Chocolaterie de Puyricard was founded by Jan Guy et Marie-Anne Roelandts, a couple of from Belgium who spent years working in the advertising industry in the former Belgian Congo before embarking on new careers as chocolatiers.

After successfully establishing themselves in Léopoldville (now Kinshasha), the Roelandts returned to Europe in 1967, settling in the south of France, where they have enjoyed a remarkable success ever since.

Chocolaterie de Puyricard has 14 chocolate shops in France, among which 11 in the Provence-Côte d’Azur region, one in Toulouse and two in Paris.

The company’s specialities include liqueur-filled chocolates, milk and dark chocolate bonbons, caramels, fruit jellies, candied chestnuts, calissons (candied fruit and marzipan confection) and other sweets.
