About Venchi
Since its inception in 1878, the Venchi brand has been a beacon of innovation and indulgence in the world of chocolate. It all began with the youthful ambition of Silviano Venchi, a 20-year-old visionary who invested his savings in two bronze cauldrons, embarking on a journey of chocolate experimentation. Nestled in a small shop on via degli Artisti in the charming Vanchiglia neighborhood of Turin, Venchi's early success laid the foundation for a confectionery empire.
Among the brand's triumphs emerged the Nougatine, a delectable creation featuring chopped and caramelized hazelnuts enrobed in extra-dark chocolate. The success of this sweet treat marked the birth of Venchi SpA, acclaimed as "the most elegant chocolate shop in Piedmont" and proudly bearing the title of "Purveyor to the Royal Household."
While the royal coat of arms may no longer grace Venchi's packaging, the brand's commitment to passion, attention to detail, and an experimental spirit has endured through the years. This commitment paved the way for a diverse array of imaginative delights, including Chocoviar, Gianduiotto, Cremino, bars, spreads, Gourmet Easter eggs, and even Gelato – all crafted with delicious, authentic, and natural recipes designed to make indulgence a source of joy and well-being.
With a rich history spanning over 145 years, Venchi has become a global ambassador of the Italian way of life and a purveyor of delightful flavors. Present in more than 70 countries, including iconic cities such as London, Hong Kong, Dubai, and New York, Venchi's presence transcends borders. The brand's store in New York boasts the largest chocolate waterfall ever created, captivating visitors with the sheer indulgence of the Venchi experience.
As part of an ongoing international expansion effort, Venchi has established itself in dynamic cities like Jakarta, Shanghai, and Tokyo, spreading creativity, joy, and conviviality across the globe. With over 180 chocolate and gelato stores worldwide and counting, Venchi continues to share its legacy of excellence, ensuring that every corner of the earth can savor the unparalleled taste of Venchi's meticulously crafted confections.
