Praline Belge · Brussels
Filled chocolates: a shell around ganache, caramel or nut cream. Jean Neuhaus II made the first in Brussels in 1912; the ballotin box followed in 1915.
Neuhaus began in 1857 as an apothecary in the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert, where the Swiss immigrant Jean Neuhaus coated medicines in chocolate. In 1912 his grandson Jean Neuhaus II created the first chocolate-filled bonbons, the pralines. His wife Louise Agostini and he developed the ballotin gift box in 1915 after seeing pralines crushed in paper cones. Wittamer opened on Place du Grand Sablon in 1910, and Frederic Blondeel makes pralines in his chocolate factory in Koekelberg.
