In 1850, Eugenius Callebaut opened a brewery in Wieze, Belgium. His son carried on the family business but in 1911 also opened a chocolate factory. His son apprenticed with Chocolaterie Meunier in Paris then returned to run the factory. In time, his son too guided the factory’s continued growth. Bear with us here. Just one more generation to go. The next son to be born into this chocolate dynasty was a mischievous boy who treated the factory as an extension of his bedroom. He played there. Worked there. And learned all the secrets. That little boy, with his inherited wealth of chocolate wisdom and a penchant for innovation, eventually moved to Canada, where he founded his own chocolate factory in Calgary, Alberta.
His name? Bernard Callebaut.
