World Chocolate Master and Head of Läderach chocolate is also about using the best ingredients—and expanding this luxury brand worldwide.
Läderach chocolate is a gift you can give—and maybe indulge in yourself—guilt free. Not only because of the high-quality, real ingredients used, but also because chocolate purchased from Läderach supports diversity and sustainability.
MAKING SOME OF THE WORLD’S FINEST CHOCOLATES
These chocolates are the world’s finest because they only source ingredients from the best of the best. It starts in South America where the company personally visits the growing areas, and partners with the Rainforest Alliance to ensure the farmers are paid above market price.
After sourcing the perfect quality cacao beans, it’s time to bring them to Switzerland where these exquisite works of art are exclusively made.
“Only the best is good enough,” is the mantra on the Läderach site, and it’s apparent in the quality and taste.

From the Rainforest to the Alps, the Swiss culture is found within the style and transforming from bean to a delectable indulgence. Each product is made by hand because “In order for it to be beautiful, it has to be unique” as they say.
“What makes us unique is that we can control the whole supply chain, that’s very important for us, it helps us to get freshness to the customers and we don’t compromise on quality,” Elias Läderach, Head of Innovation & Production and 2018 World Chocolate Master, says.
“Just one example, with the hazelnuts, we only use the piedmontese hazelnuts that are from Piedmont, Italy. They cost many times as much as other kinds of hazelnuts, but it’s just the best you can get.”
