What Chocolates Del Turista is known for
Family-run Argentine chocolatier tracing its authentic Patagonian flavor back to 1964, blending Italian heritage with local craft. Its more than 20 branches sell chocolate bars, alfajores, and regional specialties across Patagonia.
Chocolates Delturista describes itself as an Argentine family business with Italian roots, tracing its 'authentic Patagonian flavor' back to 1964 and now operating more than 20 branches across Argentine Patagonia. The company frames its 60-year history around continuing an artisanal chocolate-making tradition rooted in the region rather than mass confectionery production.
The current product range spans beyond plain chocolate bars: assorted chocolate boxes, alfajores and conitos, chocodrinks (chocolate powders and mixes), regional specialty items, and a frozen dessert line including ice cream, sold under certifications the company lists including gluten-free options. A dedicated online store, alongside the network of Patagonian branches, ships the chocolate nationally within Argentina.
The brand's newest line pairs its base chocolate with pistachio, almonds, hazelnuts, and forest fruits in bar form, an extension the company positions as bringing its Patagonian identity into more contemporary flavor combinations while keeping the family-recipe throughline intact.
