Camille Bloch

Camille Bloch is a Swiss chocolate maker, formed in 1929 in Berne by former Tobler apprentice Camille Bloch. In 1934, the company started producing its own chocolate from the bean in a converted paper factory in Courtelary.

During the war, when cocoa became expensive and scarce, Camille Bloch, started adding cheaper, more readily available ingredients like hazelnuts to its products, coming up with praline products like Ragusa, which is still their most popular product.

Today, the company is still family owned and run by Camille's grandsons, Daniel and Stéphane Bloch.
