Listen up chocophiles.

Guylian, the Belgian chocolate maker that produces those little seahorse and seashell ganache choccies, is opening a Guylian Belgian Chocolate Cafe in Perth next Monday.

Located at the newly renovated former Western Australian Club building at 101 St Georges Terrace, the cafe will include a plush new fit-out with marble counters and wood panelling.

The Guylian Cafe will also sell pastries, baguettes and, yes please, waffles (presumably dripping with chocolate).

Guylian was founded in 1958 by Guy and Liliane Foubert, whose names were combined to create the business name.

Their signature seashell-shaped chocolates have become a worldwide hit, with the premium sweet treats sold in more than 100 countries.

“Guylian still produces their hazelnut praline according to their own recipe in the age-old traditional manner, a heritage of the company’s founding father,” the company said.

“How Guylian roasts and caramelises the hazelnuts is a well-kept secret that gives their chocolates their velvety taste.”

The company also helps protect its signature seahorse out in the ocean by supporting Project Seahorse, a marine conservation group “dedicated to securing a world where marine ecosystems are healthy and well-managed”.

“Every time you buy a box of Guylian Belgian chocolates, you contribute to saving the seahorse and the seas they inhabit,” the company said.

“Marine life is threatened around the world. Project Seahorse works on conservation solutions for seahorses and the ocean habitats in which they live.

“Guylian has been providing vital support for this work since 1999.”
