Schmitten Chocolates by Rajhans: India's Homegrown Luxury in Cocoa Craftsmanship

In the rarefied world of indulgence, where chocolate transcends into an art of luxury, one name from India is rewriting the narrative - Schmitten Chocolates by Rajhans Group. Founded in 2014, the brand represents a bold vision: to craft world-class chocolates from India that rival Swiss maisons and global icons, all while carrying the essence of Indian innovation, trust, and pride.

Rajhans Group Legacy, Schmitten Philosophy

Part of the diversified Rajhans Group, a conglomerate with roots in real estate and a presence across multiple industries, Schmitten reflects the group's philosophy of excellence through innovation.

Schmitten was conceived not as just another chocolate brand but as India's answer to luxury indulgence - blending Ghanaian and Madagascan cocoa, state-of-the-art European technology, and the finesse of Swiss inspiration. Its mission: to immerse chocolate lovers into a "fantasy of flavor", where every bite is indulgence, intimacy, and artistry combined, joining the ranks of top Indian luxury chocolate brands.

Precision Meets Passion in Surat

At the heart of this vision lies a 250,000 sq. ft. chocolate facility in Surat, Gujarat. Outfitted with advanced machinery from Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, and the UK, this factory is a testament to Rajhans Group's commitment to creating chocolates on par with the best in the world.

Schmitten's chocolate artistry begins with the finest Ghanaian cocoa beans, revered for their richness and balance, coupled with Madagascan cocoa's aromatic depth. Each recipe is meticulously crafted - merging European standards with artisanal Indian care.

Luxury Portfolio: Chocolate as an Art Form

 

Schmitten's product line is a celebration of variety and luxury:

 

  • Signature Bars – Milk and dark chocolates, enriched with textures like roasted nuts, raisins, crispy rice, oatmeal, almonds, and orange.
  • Hoppits – A revolutionary bar combining dark chocolate with granola, caramel, nougat, and fruit, merging indulgence with nourishment.
  • Gourmet Creations – Spreads, pan-coated orbs, granola snacks, and exquisite gifting collections, designed to elevate chocolate into a statement of taste and status.

This diverse portfolio reflects how chocolate innovation continues to evolve, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern health-conscious trends.

Luxury Market Position: Global Standards, Indian Pride

With distribution across 8,000+ retail stores and 70+ exclusive outlets at airports, metros, and multiplexes, Schmitten has created a rare blend of accessibility and aspiration. Online availability via Amazon, Flipkart, Blinkit, and Swiggy further ensures that luxury indulgence is never out of reach.

 

Strategic collaborations and private-label partnerships with global giants such as Hershey's, Nestlé, Barry Callebaut, Mars, and Mondelez solidify Schmitten's stature as a serious contender in the global chocolate industry. This positioning mirrors broader trends in the luxury food industry, where Indian brands are increasingly making their mark on the global stage.

 

Rajhans Schmitten: Awards, Icons & Global Recognition

Luxury thrives on recognition, and Schmitten has been celebrated both at home and abroad:

  • Best Luxury Chocolate Brand – Global Icon Awards, 2025
  • Product Launch of the Year – Channelier FMCG Awards, 2023 (Choco Crunch)
  • Asia's Most Promising Brand – WCRC, 2014
  • India's Most Trusted Brand – IBC, 2022

Celebrity endorsements from Priyanka Chopra and Ananya Panday amplify its youthful, aspirational image, making Schmitten not just a chocolate brand, but a lifestyle statement of indulgence.

For those seeking to experience the pinnacle of chocolate artistry, Schmitten stands alongside other extraordinary creations like those featured in pure chocolate bliss experiences and the world's most luxurious desserts.

The Rajhans-Schmitten Promise

For the Rajhans Group, Schmitten is more than a product. It is a legacy of excellence, a symbol of India's growing voice in luxury, and a fantasy of flavor crafted to global perfection.

 

From its origins in Surat to shelves across India and beyond, Schmitten Chocolates by Rajhans proves that Indian craftsmanship, when paired with vision and global benchmarks, can compete with and even surpass the world's finest. This success story exemplifies broader trends in luxury goods production, where innovation and quality transcend geographical boundaries.

 

Like the legendary To'ak luxury chocolate experiences, Schmitten represents the artistry and passion that transforms simple cocoa into extraordinary indulgence. The brand's journey from Gujarat to global recognition mirrors the evolution of Indian luxury brands that are reshaping international perceptions of quality and craftsmanship.

Once bitten, always smitten - luxury, the Rajhans way.
