Unless you're a natural gifter, buying holiday presents can feel like a maze of socks, soaps, and novelty candles the store clerk convinced you were a good idea. Chocolate, on the other hand, is always a good idea — especially when it's Swiss.

Läderach is a destination for indulgent holiday gifts, and with locations across Toronto, shopping for top-quality Swiss chocolate is a breeze. Fresh Swiss chocolate can be found at the Bloor Street, Eaton Centre, Yorkdale, Sherway Gardens, Square One and York Mills locations.

FrischSchoggi is the perfect entry point to Läderach's world of chocolate. Swiss for "fresh chocolate," the signature artisanal creation is made in large, flat slabs infused with plenty of whole roasted nuts, freeze-dried fruit and candied citrus peel, broken into irregular slabs.

While there are over 20 different flavour combinations and several formats, every piece of FrischSchoggi is crafted from fresh Swiss alpine milk and single-origin or bean-to-bar cocoa.

Choosing your own combination of flavour and style — for you or the recipient of your gift — is a unique experience, like a pick-and-mix counter for chocolate lovers.

In addition, Läderach's holiday collection sprinkles a dose of festivity into its flavours. Holiday pralines are perfect for the difficult-to-buy person on your list, Christmas figures like Finn the reindeer for the young (and young-at-heart) and an advent calendar for anyone who needs a daily hit of chocolate.

Chocolate isn't just something to unwrap. Läderach launched hot chocolate this holiday season, a.k.a. one more delicious excuse to indulge when the temperatures drop.

Whether you're shopping for a chocoholic who's tried it all before or the relative who insists they don't want anything, Läderach has everything you need to surprise and delight everyone on your list. Make sure you pick up a little something for yourself along the way — after all, why shouldn't you be rewarded for being such a pro holiday shopper?
