At Cailler, we take your smile very seriously. Our mission? To make you melt with happiness with our irresistible Swiss chocolate. A unique taste, born from a happy marriage of passion, tradition, and carefully selected ingredients.
It all began in 1819 with the birth of our Cailler brand. And if you’re a fan of milk chocolate, thank Daniel Peter, the son-in-law of François-Louis Cailler. He was the one who, in 1875, had the brilliant idea to invent it and then commercialize it under the name Peter-Cailler & Cie. Since then, just like Daniel Peter, we have been carrying on this invention by preparing our chocolate with condensed milk to offer you that unique taste and bring you a little happiness, chocolate after chocolate.
For the magic to happen, the quality of our Swiss milk is essential! That’s why we have forged a strong partnership with around 44 dairy farmers and their approximately 1,500 cows, all located within a 30 km radius of our Maison Cailler, in the heart of the beautiful Gruyère region!
This close partnership goes beyond geography: it is built on trust, shared values, and mutual respect. The local IP-SUISSE farms we collaborate with are committed to sustainable practices that protect biodiversity, preserve the environment, and ensure the well-being of their cows.
This local and environmentally friendly approach provides us with milk of exceptional quality. Combined with our unique and secret production process, it gives each piece of Cailler chocolate its irresistible taste. A taste that invites you to appreciate every moment and see the positive in every situation.
Our cocoa bean journey
Working towards more sustainable cocoa
We have at heart to make every Cailler chocolate piece even better. That is why our cocoa is sourced through the Nestlé Cocoa Plan. It aims to positively impact cocoa-farming families and the environment they operate in.
The Nestlé Cocoa Plan pillars
The Nestlé Cocoa Plan builds on three key pillars: Better farming, aiming to improve livelihoods in communities. Better lives, aiming to improve social conditions for families. And Better cocoa, aiming to improve product sustainability.
The Income Accelerator Program to go further
This program has been developed to encourage changes in behavior and reward positive practices, both within the home and on the farm. It incentivizes these families to take actions that improve cocoa productivity, plant forest and fruit trees, diversify their income, and support children's education.
Proudly Rainforest Alliance Certified
All our products are certified by the Rainforest Alliance. This means we source all our cocoa from Rainforest Alliance Certified farms, helping to create a more sustainable cocoa supply chain and tackle social and environmental issues.
