Charbonnel et Walker

Charbonnel et Walker are purveyors of fine quality chocolates and truffles. Established in 1875 on London’s Bond Street, Charbonnel et Walker is Britain’s first luxury chocolatier. Encouraged by Edward VII, (then the Prince of Wales), Mme Charbonnel, known for making the finest chocolates in Paris, was introduced to Mrs Walker in London. Mrs Walker made the finest jewellery boxes, hat boxes and more. Mrs. Walker, keen to learn the art of making fine chocolate, joined Madame Charbonnel in Paris.

Inspired by the Parisian chocolate houses of the late nineteenth century, both ladies returned to London with a simple premise, to make the most delicious chocolates, presented in beautiful gift boxes. Their first shop opened to much acclaim on London’s exclusive Bond Street. Charbonnel et Walker had arrived in Victorian London.

Their flagship store has been housed on Bond Street ever since and located in The Royal Arcade, Old Bond Street. From 1970 -2022, Charbonnel et Walker held a Royal Warrant as chocolate makers to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, a cherished moment in the history of the brand.
