Cacao roaster
chocolate maker

I feel fortunate being both a roaster & chocolatier. I insist on being approachable and visible. That is why we combine an urban roastery, chocolate factory, shop and coffee & ice cream bar. Our very own chocolate community at Koekelberg.

Cacao roaster –
Chocolate maker

To be a chocolate-maker is one job, to be a cocoa-roaster, or torréfacteur, is another. More then 30 years ago I chose a remarkable path and decided to be both. Coming from 3 generations of coffee roasters, I try to honor my heritage by skillfully crafting another bean : cacao. Becoming a chocolate making descendant of coffee roasters.

From "Bean to Bar": where roasting becomes art.

At Frederic Blondeel, every cocoa bean is carefully roasted to reveal its hidden richness. From South Asia to Latin America, only the finest beans are selected and roasted at low temperatures, preserving their natural aromas and enhancing their unique flavors.

This artisanal know-how, passed down through generations, brings life to exceptional creations: single-origin chocolate bars, pralines, drops, and more. Each piece is a celebration of passion, precision, and the true essence of chocolate.

Gault & Millau 2019 & 2025

Brussels winner in the chocolate category.
Frédéric Blondeel, already a laureate in 2019, is an artisan whom we honor once again with this title. It’s safe to say that he’s not the kind of chocolate maker to stay on his laurels. On the contrary, his work, always of the highest caliber, has continued to evolve and assert itself. His determination to perfect the ‘bean to bar’ concept as both a roaster and chocolate maker is undeniably at the root of his success. For 30 years, he has been one of the pioneers in this field and a role model for those who, on the same basis, bring a personal and unique dimension to the craft of chocolate maker. This distinction is therefore more than well-deserved.
