In 1878, a 20-year-old from Turin, Silviano Venchi, demonstrated his profound love for chocolate notably. He spent all his savings on two bronze cauldrons and set out on an adventurous experiment. And 140 years later, his decision paid off.

After numerous experiments in his apartment and at a small place on Via Degli Artisti in Borgo Vaniglia, his creation of Nougatine, made with Piedmont hazelnuts, chopped, caramelized, and coated in extra-dark chocolate, was a success beyond what he could have ever imagined. So it was no surprise that Venchi Spa, known as "the most elegant chocolate shop in Piedmont" and "Purveyor to the Royal Household", was born from this.

At Venchi, every creation is crafted in Italy with the utmost care and attention to detail. Rooted in traditional recipes and artisanal methods, Venchi uses only natural ingredients to create chocolate of uncompromising quality. Each product reflects a commitment to purity—free from artificial colorants, flavors, and thickeners—allowing the true character of its ingredients to shine.

Sourced from the finest origins around the world, Venchi’s raw materials include single-origin cocoa from Ecuador, Venezuela, and Peru, alongside prized Piedmont hazelnuts, Sicilian pistachios, almonds, and Ligurian olive oil. From the iconic Gianduitto to a wide range of gluten-free and selected vegan-friendly creations, every Venchi chocolate is designed to deliver an authentic, refined, and exceptional tasting experience.
