Guylian Chocolates

Guylian, a Belgian chocolate company founded in 1960 by Guy Foubert, is perhaps most well known for their chocolate seashells with various praline fillings. The chocolates are hand made, making each one truly unique.

Guylian History

The name Guylian is derived from the combination of the first names of the founder and his wife, Lilian. The company was founded in 1960 when Guy and Lilian were married. They operated the small production out of their home, selling truffles and pralines to local shops. As the business grew, Guy developed the idea of shaping the chocolates into seashells, setting Guylian Chocolates apart from the other chocolate companies. In 1988, the company expanded with the opening of a factory in Sint-Niklaas. Lotte Confectionary purchased Guylian in 2008.

Guylian Project Seahorse

Since 1999, Guylian Chocolates has been a leading sponsor of Project Seahorse, an organization founded in 1996 to help conserve the seahorse and other marine life population that is threatened by human interventions such as the destruction of marine natural habitats and catch in fishing gear. More than 25 million seahorses are traded on the global market each year. Each time a box of Guylian Belgian Chocolates is purchased, a portion of the procedes goes to support Project Seahorse.
