For more than 150 years, the Callebaut name has been synonymous with fine chocolates and confections.
The Callebaut name began as a dairy in Belgium in the 1850s. Over the years, as chocolate evolved from a drink to a bar, the Callebaut name was well know for its fine chocolates. By 1981 Callebaut joined with Tobler-Suchard, and by 1996 the trade name became Barry Callebaut, merging companies from both Belgium and France. Today the name of this company is Barry Callebaut.
From the raw cocoa bean to the high quality cocoa sold on shelves today, Barry Callebaut is the leading manufacturer of high quality chocolate products. With annual sales of over 4 billion dollars and product selling in more than 23 countries, production in more than 30 facilities and more than 8000 employees, it has succeeded in every aspect of chocolate manufacturing.
Callebaut manufactures for every chocolate application needed. Their product is used world wide by chefs, bakers, and yes, by a few of the finer chocolate fountain companies that choose the highest grade of chocolate available to flow through their fountains.
