1929
On the banks of the Danube River, in Czechoslovakia, near the picturesque Carpathian Mountain Range, Leopold Grunhut began studying the art of fine chocolate making. Before long, his skills were acclaimed and he began creating unique chocolate confections with delicate balances of flavor in his small kitchen. Using only fresh cream from the local farmers, his small operation soon became the talk of the town. Within five years, he had four stores in town selling his confections.

After WWII devastated the region, the company relocated to New York, with young Erwin at the helm of the family business. Under the Astor Chocolate name, the business flourished with Erwin’s creativity, and unique style. Astor Chocolates European inspired confections soon achieved national renown.

Over the years, Astor became famous for its innovations in the chocolate market. 
In the 1960’s it was illegal to sell liqueur-filled chocolate. Erwin thought of a creative alternative, a chocolate cordial cup to be filled with liqueur. This dark Belgian chocolate cup soon became a best seller, as the company aligned with brand name liqueur brands such as Kahlua, Nocello, Tia Maria as well as private label packages for other liqueur companies. The classic liqueur cup gift box was prominently displayed in the window of Bloomingdales and a feature article was written in the home magazine – House Beautiful.

In 1965, the Chocolate Chess Set was designed by a famous artist. It came complete with solid dark and white chocolate playing pieces and an edible board in a beautiful gift box. This too became a popular item and was featured in Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales and other popular mail-order catalogs of the day.

Astor Chocolate was expanding rapidly. They moved to a large new factory in Glendale, New York. This enabled the installation of new production equipment to facilitate high quality production in a very short turnaround.
In the 1970’s, Astor introduced customized turndown chocolates to the American hotel market. These chocolate mints soon became the hallmark of turndown service at many famous hotels. Astor remains the industry leader in chocolate amenities for the hospitality industry.

Expanding on its success with chocolate gift-shops, Astor imported a European concept by creating a line of chocolate souvenirs featuring photos and scenes of cities across the USA. Airport and souvenir shops nationwide now offered sweet memories to travelers to take home to family and friends.
