The Belgian-founded, Turkish-owned Godiva Chocolatier is one of the best-known brands of premium chocolate on the market. Among its hundreds of stores all over the world are five in Istanbul (in Nişantaşı, Etiler, Suadiye, Bebek, and Levent) as well as a new store in Ankara’s Çankaya district.

Known for its distinctive gold-colored boxes of chocolates, Godiva is currently offering a special Bayram Collection in time for the Turkish Kurban Bayramı holiday. With patterns inspired by the jewelry boxes of the Ottoman sultans, and a color scheme that mixes turquoise with Godiva’s traditional gold and brown, the Bayram Collection is visually striking. The wide range of treats in the Bayram Collection include not only white chocolates, milk chocolates, and dark chocolates, and homemade pralines and truffles, but also chocolate-covered dates, pistachio paste, and almond paste.

The Bayram Collection is available at all Godiva stores in Istanbul.
