GuyLian, the World's Favorite Belgian Chocolate


The men at our home (husband and son) are the "sweet teeth" in the family.  They always crave  for something sweet when  we get done eating a hearty meal  or even   for a snack, they want something sweet.  That is  why I was delighted when I was given an opportunity to   try   different kinds of  Artisanal Belgian Chocolates from GuyLian.

Whenever I try a product for the first time, I am always interested in learning their  story.  I always read the history of their company, on how it started.   The name GuyLian is a combination of   the name of the founders, the  husband and wife, Guy and Lian Foubert.    Guy was a passionate Belgian Chocolatier   who makes handmade  chocolate truffles in Sin-Niklaas, Belgium.  In 1958, Guy and Lian  got married and started their small artisanal chocolate maker company.  Fast forward, 55 years later,  their company  crafts the finest authentic  Belgian chocolate truffles which  is being enjoyed by chocolate lovers around the world.


They sent me a  big  package of different kinds (as shown above) of chocolates and mind you, only few are left now.  We have been savoring the  richness of it.  I must admit, I am not your typical chocolate lover girl but I like some of their chocolates.

There is one that is specially wrapped and my daughter gave it to her  teacher.  She said that she loves it, but then again, who wouldn't?  They are incredibly good!


Hubby and I are surprised that our son and daughter even liked the  dark chocolate ones.  MY husband is not crazy about dark chocolates, I tried them and they were  as god as the other ones.
Now I know why they call  their chocolates artisanal because it makes a whole lot of sense as you can see in their  packaging, it is very artistic.  From the packaging down to the chocolate itself, the designs are very artsy.

My favorite ones are the milk chocolates ones, the sweetness and richness of it is just right for my pallet.   

I also love the creamy  chocolate truffles  that are designed into seashells.  These reminds me of home because of the  seashell design, it makes me feel like I am at home  walking in the sand picking some astray seashells in the seashore.  Oh it is a great feeling to feed both your  pallet and your thoughts!


I highly recommend Guylian, the Artisanal Belgian Chocolates.  You should try the world's favorite Belgian chocolate, I am sure, you will love it too as much as we do!

I absolutely love the no sugar added milk chocolate bars. They are delicious. I'm not crazy about dark chocolate either, but the dark chocolate bar was also pretty good.
