Anthon Berg chocolate

Anthon Berg is a Danish chocolatier and the name of a corporate division within Toms International. The company produces a diverse variety of chocolate products. The title "Purveyors to the Royal Danish Court" was awarded to Anthon Berg in 1957.[citation needed] Cocoa became known in Denmark around the 18th century. For years it was seen mostly as a pharmaceutical product; the Danish founders of the leading chocolate houses, Toms, Trojel and Meyer, were all pharmacists. As marzipan was already a coveted delicacy in Denmark, Anthon Berg, a Danish greengrocer, decided to try his hand at making marzipan. With his own name as a trademark, he created a crafts shop on the Old Strand in Copenhagen. In 1884, he bought a confectionery business and with his son Gustav as assistant, began producing filled dessert chocolates.[citation needed]
