MARTHA AND SONS is an independent chocolate manufactory in Bern’s Old Town, making handcrafted chocolate from carefully selected fine cacao. The brand focuses on single-farm beans, including Criollo, Nacional and, occasionally, Trinitario, and works in small, limited batches. Its chocolate is made in Bern from bean to bar, with simple recipes that keep cacao’s natural character at the forefront. Depending on the variety, ingredients are limited to cacao, sugar and milk powder; the company says it avoids lecithin, palm oil, additives and colourings.

The range includes dark, milk and white chocolate, as well as pralines, including almond pralines in several flavours and a matcha chocolate made with organic matcha. MARTHA AND SONS also offers chocolate gift bars and personalised corporate gifts, with packaging, addressing and shipping services for business customers. Its products are available through the online shop and selected retailers, and the manufactory welcomes enquiries from cafés, restaurants, delicatessens and other wholesale partners. The brand’s approach combines Swiss craftsmanship, distinctive cacao origins and considered production.
