Chocolate

Chances are, you’ve heard of the smooth creamy taste of Swiss chocolate products. Many chocolate pioneers emerged in this Alpine country and hence, created the milk chocolate we know today. A large part of Swiss chocolate quality is the milk. Alpine cows lead very different lives than factory cows. They’re free to wander around the pastures, eating grass and laying in the sun. Therefore, their milk just tastes better! Some of the best quality chocolate comes from Switzerland, and you just can’t go wrong with this one. From Lindt, Cailler, Toblerone, Swiss Dream to Laederach, you’ll discover the most innovative chocolate brands out there. Choose a beautiful chocolate box, some heavenly pralines, truffles or a chocolate gift set! Any chocolate lover will be thrilled.

Watches

If you’ve heard about precision, you’ve heard about Swiss watches. They’re a world-renowned symbol of accuracy, craftsmanship and intricate design. According to the Swiss law, a watch is considered Swiss if the movement is Swiss and encased in Switzerland, as well as if the manufacturer carries out the final inspection in Switzerland. You may be surprised to hear just how many famous watch brands come out of Switzerland. Hanowa, Wenger, Breitling and Mondaine, to name just a few. Impress your loved ones with these unique gifts from Switzerland. Whether it’s a wristwatch, a lovely watch set or even a colorful desk clock, you can’t go wrong with these Swiss souvenirs.

Cheese

Who doesn’t love cheese? With over a 450 varieties, Switzerland has some of the best cheese products in Europe. In about 99 percent of these Swiss products, cow’s milk is used. You’ve surely heard about famous cheeses like Emmentaler, Gruyere, Appenzeller and Raclette. However, cheese does not always travel well. There are some concerns about refrigeration and customs. That’s why you should maybe consider a packaged Swiss fondue mix. Fondue is actually a Swiss national dish and it’s also incredibly fun. Share your melted cheese fondue with friends for an authentic Swiss experience. Delicious!
