Switzerland is home to some of the finest, most exotic chocolates

Chocolate? Yes, please.

This is not a blog dedicated to the immersive luxurious experience of Swiss chocolate.

Or maybe it is.

Switzerland is home to some of the finest, most exotic chocolates that we, as a race have ever been exposed to.

And Zurich is the birthplace of milk chocolate as a concept which means that a trip to Zurich definitely needs to be on your bucket list. 9 Here are some of the top chocolatiers that are worth your while in Zurich:

Sprungli

If you’re looking to be amazed and enthralled by rows and rows of chocolates you need to step into Sprungli’s flagship store in Bahnhofstrasse. Open since 1859, Sprungli’s treats are somewhat of a national treasure at this point. From exquisite truffles that are sold within a 24 hour period to macaroons that taste like little drops of heaven and chocolate bars that melt in your mouth - Sprungli at Zurich enchants the child in you and satisfies the chocoholic in you.

Max chocolatier

Max chocolatier decided to go another way. Established in 2009, Max Chocolatier is relatively new and therefore very contemporary minimalist looking on the outside and heavenly smelling on the inside. This artisanal chocolate house has a speciality: their chocolate is based on the seasons of Zurich. So depending on the time of your travel you most definitely are in for a surprise.

Bachmann’s

If death by chocolate were a phrase then we’re sure it would've been coined at Bachmann’s most recent opening in Zurich’s Bahnhofstrasse. This outlet not only serves some of the most delectable chocolates in the city but also has a 2,000L wall of chocolate on their 1st floor. For a chocolatier whose motto literally translates into Compromises are meant for relationships and not chocolates! - we know that the quality of their ingredients, just like the taste, is simply sublime.
