When building a cheese board, it’s often the small details that make the biggest impression. Chocolate Amatller, one of Europe’s oldest active chocolate makers, offers a range of chocolates that can add a sweet finishing touch to cheese boards, dessert spreads, and fruit pairings.
Founded in 1797 by Gabriel Amatller in Barcelona’s historic El Born district, Chocolate Amatller has been crafting chocolate for more than two centuries. Today, the brand continues to blend its rich heritage with modern design, reflecting the artistic roots that have helped define its identity over generations.
Among its most recognizable products are its delicate chocolate leaves, available in milk, dark, and white chocolate varieties. Thin and crisp, they offer subtle cocoa notes and an elegant presentation that pairs naturally with fresh berries, dried fruit, nuts, and a variety of cheeses.
The brand also produces Amatllons, a combination of roasted and caramelized Marcona almonds coated in creamy white chocolate and finished with a dusting of cocoa. Their balance of crunch, sweetness, and richness makes them a natural addition to grazing boards.
For those looking to expand beyond traditional chocolate offerings, Chocolate Amatller’s assortment of pralines includes flavors featuring fruit, nuts, coffee, and liqueurs. Whether arranged alongside artisan cheeses or served as part of a dessert board, these chocolates bring a touch of Spanish tradition and craftsmanship to the table.
