Kjærstrup Chokolade in Snogebæk is one of those places on Bornholm that’s almost impossible to walk past without stepping inside. The aroma of chocolate greets you at the door, while the displays are filled with handcrafted Flødeboller, chocolates, marzipan, caramels and other sweet creations, all made with great care and a passion for quality.
The shop is housed in a beautiful thatched half-timbered building in the heart of Snogebæk, just a short walk from the harbour. Behind the building you’ll find a charming courtyard where visitors relax with a cup of coffee, an ice cream or one of Kjærstrup’s most popular specialties – the famous Flødebolle topped with soft ice cream and homemade topping. It has become one of Bornholm’s iconic summer treats, and on warm days long queues are part of the experience.
Kjærstrup is best known for its handcrafted Flødeboller, recognised among Denmark’s finest, but the selection extends far beyond that. You’ll discover premium chocolates, traditional confectionery and innovative sweet creations, all crafted with respect for fine ingredients and skilled craftsmanship.
The story began in Snogebæk in 1999, when Birgitte Kjær and Peter Bræstrup founded the company with a vision of creating exceptional chocolate. Since then, Kjærstrup has grown from a small Bornholm chocolate shop into a respected Danish chocolate brand with shops across the country, while its heart and heritage remain firmly rooted in Snogebæk.
Whether you’re looking for a famous Flødebolle, a relaxing break in the courtyard or a delicious gift to bring home, Kjærstrup Chokolade is a must-visit during your stay on Bornholm.
In addition to the shop in Snogebæk, you’ll also find Kjærstrup Chokolade in Rønne and Gudhjem, each offering its own unique atmosphere. The company also has shops in several other parts of Denmark, but everything began here in the small coastal village of Snogebæk.
