Anker Chokolade was founded by Martin Nørregaard and Mikkel Anker in 2015.
Anker Chokolade is a fusion between a Michelin chef and chocolatier – Mikkel Anker – and a food lover with a passion for business – Martin Nørregaard. With our different backgrounds, we bring unique perspectives on how a quality product is created.

Mikkel’s background in hot kitchens and Michelin restaurants has given us a fresh approach to “accepted” flavors in chocolate. We don’t feel limited by the concept of “that’s how it’s always been done” but allow ourselves to think creatively and explore flavors that are not usually found in chocolate. We put a lot of effort into developing the taste of each chocolate piece, so it not only tastes great but also looks inviting, as we know that we also eat with our eyes.

Our story begins in December 2015, when we opened our first shop in Vesterbro. After a summer spent renovating an old basement, our chocolate workshop was finally ready to welcome guests on December 17, 2015, allowing local residents to come in and watch chocolate being produced. Like all stories, ours had humble beginnings with limited hours, mainly evenings and weekends, as Anker Chokolade was our side project outside full-time jobs and evening studies. As demand gradually increased, it was time after a year to go bigger, and we decided Mikkel would work full-time to keep up. Things moved so quickly that Martin joined full-time just half a year later.

THE CONCEPT
At Anker Chokolade, we strive to challenge your taste buds with our unique selection of chocolates. Our assortment varies according to the season, which means we work with two collections – a Summer Collection and a Winter Collection. We believe that ingredients taste best when in season, so we replace two-thirds of our selection every six months, constantly aiming to achieve the finest possible result.

Our core idea is to contribute to the traditional chocolate market by introducing new, exciting flavor combinations, thus pushing the boundaries of what ingredients can pair with chocolate.

WE LOVE THE CRAFT
As we consider chocolate to be a craft, we have chosen not to buy large machines that can produce vast amounts of chocolate in seconds. We believe that love should be part of the production, which is why all our products are handmade. This includes everything from decorating the chocolates – often painted by hand with a brush – to casting the shells and filling the chocolates. Our craftsmanship can be seen in our shops, where the production takes place.

If you’d like to see how we work, you are always welcome to stop by during the day when production is usually in full swing. Having production in-store creates an authentic atmosphere, with a fresh chocolate scent, so you’ll never be in doubt that you’re in a chocolate shop.
