We are moving! We are leaving our premises at Oosteroever and Alfons Pieterslaan and moving to a prime location in the heart of the city. A new building, fully furnished according to our own taste and our own choices.

The new premises will undoubtedly bring new inspiration and new creations. ‘But the sea is and will always be my biggest source of inspiration,’ says Olivier Willems. "That's why there was no doubt that we would stay in Ostend. Our choice fell on a new building in the heart of the city, where the many passers-by can take a look at our atelier."

The new shop is currently being fully furnished. It is scheduled to open before the summer holidays 2025.

Taste the craftmanship

30 years of passion and experience are stuffed in every praline that Olivier Willems creates. A wave of flavours over the years.

From the open ateliers, every new creation finds its way directly  to the customer. Olivier Willems is the chocolatier by the sea.

Olivier Willems has been using the sea as inspiration for his chocolates for years.
The waves at the origin of the creations. Now his collection also includes the famous masks of painter James Ensor.

Olivier works by the sea. In the city-by-the-sea. The king of pralines at work in the Queen of seaside resorts. That’s just fine, isn’t it? Ostend. An array of cultural influences inspiring the chocolatier.

Olivier Willems chocolaterie can be found in the Alfons Pieterslaan. The open space where customers can see the chocolatier at work captures the imagination.
