Rausch Chocolatier

In the elegant chocolate shop at Gendarmenmarkt, a huge display presents delicately melting pralines and confectionery made from fine cocoa. Fine means that only five percent of the world’s cocoa harvest meets this standard. These are pure premium chocolates from the best plantations in the world.

The praline counter offers an almost inexhaustible abundance of the finest truffles, pralines, and confectionery of the highest artisanal quality. Some specialties are made according to recipes more than 100 years old. For those whose mouths are already watering, Rausch offers small delicacies to taste right in the café above the shop. Small cakes and drinking chocolate with interesting toppings like pepper or orange essence delight the palate.

If you can’t get enough, book an entire menu in Germany’s first chocolate restaurant or indulge in a tour of the Rausch Manufactory in Tempelhof!
