Few brands can boast a legacy stretching back 190 years. Since 1828, Van Houten has been producing, innovating, and pushing the boundaries of chocolate craft. Coenraad van Houten was a pioneer in cocoa pressing, and his son later developed the "dutching" process. This transformed cocoa drinks from bitter powders into the deliciously smooth and soluble cocoa and chocolate drinks we enjoy today. And Van Houten is still far from finished with its innovations.
Finest cocoa powders - a bean-to-cup journey of over 190 years
Van Houten's story began in 1815 when Casparus Van Houten set up a chocolate factory in Amsterdam. Cocoa beans were ground into a fine powder, which was then mixed with milk to create a chocolate drink, or with sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla to make biscuits.
In 1828, Casparus invented the hydraulic cocoa press, which separated the cocoa butter from the drink, resulting in a lighter and more nutritious cocoa powder. His son Coenraad inherited his father's passion for cocoa and went on to invent the renowned Dutching process, which alkalises cocoa to enhance its flavour and solubility.
