Van Houten
For making the rich taste of cocoa accessible to all on the patent they claimed for the vertical cocoa press: the Van Houten family unleashed nothing less than a revolution - one of a kind. Their innovative Dutching process created the delicious, full chocolatey taste of cocoa we still enjoy today. Today Van Houten is still the best that goes the furthest.
Van Houten is a Dutch brand of cocoa products and chocolate, founded in 1815 by Conrad J. van Houten. Van Houten is known for its high-quality cocoa products, which are used in a variety of applications, including baking, confectionery and hot chocolate. The company is named after its founder, who is credited with inventing the process of pressing cocoa butter from roasted cocoa beans, which led to the production of cocoa powder. Today, Van Houten is a leading supplier of cocoa products and is owned by Italian ferrero.
