At the Teuscher Chocolates store, located inside William Ashley on Toronto's renowned luxury Mink Mile, Teuscher of Switzerland is proud to bring the timeless tradition of Swiss chocolate-making to one of the city's most iconic destinations.
A Legacy of Excellence
Founded in 1932 by Dolf Teuscher Sr., Teuscher Chocolates has been synonymous with luxury and quality for over 90 years. Dolf's passion led him to source the finest cocoa, marzipan, fruits, and nuts from around the world, creating confections that have delighted chocolate lovers globally. Today, Teuscher honors this legacy by continuing to use only the best ingredients—free from additives or preservatives—ensuring every truffle and praline delivers pure, natural flavor.
Signature Creations
Among Teuscher's most celebrated offerings is the Champagne Truffle, a Teuscher original introduced in 1947. Crafted with Dom Pérignon Champagne, this truffle features a buttercream center, enrobed in rich chocolate, and dusted with confectioner's sugar or cocoa powder. It's a testament to Teuscher's commitment to innovation and excellence.
Natural Ingredients, Uncompromised Quality
Teuscher believes that exceptional chocolate starts with exceptional ingredients. Teuscher chocolates contain no preservatives, additives, or artificial colorings. Instead, we use natural sources like spinach leaves and beetroot to color our marzipan, ensuring both beauty and purity in every piece.
Signature Creations
Truffles: Chocolates with a creamy ganache center, made from fine chocolate combined with cream or butter.
- Gianduja: A smooth blend of chocolate and ground nuts (hazelnuts, almonds, or walnuts), sweetened with confectioner's
sugar. Teuscher's Gianduja is meticulously ground in a triple mill without added oils or fats. - Marzipan: A sweet paste made from finely ground almonds and sugar, often sculpted into decorative shapes.
- Pralines: Confections featuring a filling of nuts and sugar, differing from Gianduja in texture and preparation.
- Fructose Chocolate: Chocolates sweetened with natural fruit sugars, suitable for those monitoring their sugar intake.
