Guylian - Premium Belgian Chocolate Seashells

The story of Guylian is a love story. 

Born 1938 in Sint-Niklaas, Guy Foubert was a passionate Belgian chocolatier. When Guy married his lover, Liliane, in 1958, the two immortalized their passion for life’s sweetest pleasures, love and chocolate, by joining their names to one: Chocolaterie Guy-lian.

In celebration of love and chocolate, the couple created for the ﬁrst time the Guylian Seashell Chocolates. Guy developed the iconic recipe of our signature in-house roasted hazelnut praliné ﬁlling; Liliane added the artistic touch by designing the shining marbled exterior and the delicately sculptured shapes, the white and dark chocolate intertwining like the lives of the two lovers, an immortal tale of romance that is retold in every marbled Seashell today.
