Like most children, Jiri (George) Havlik, developed a love of chocolate at a young age. Originally from the Czech Republic, he took his passion a step further, training and working as a pastry chef in his homeland. George moved to New Zealand and fulfilled a lifelong dream, opening Bohemein Fresh Chocolates in Wellington in 2005.
In 2015 Bohemein opened a store in central Auckland, their first outside of the Wellington region.
Head Chocolatier George’s aim is to bring the high standard of European chocolate craftsmanship and quality to New Zealand. His vision being that tasting his chocolate will evoke memories of strolling off the boulevards of Brussels, Paris or Prague for his Kiwi customers.
At Bohemein’s Miramar workshop, only fresh, high-quality ingredients are used to craft world class chocolates. When you taste strawberries in Bohemein chocolates, you’re tasting real fresh strawberries. When you taste hazelnuts, they are real hazelnuts.
A wide range of Bohemein chocolates are sold at Moore Wilson's, including the popular Vanilla Marshmallow Dark Chocolate Fish – a real gourmet treat available year round.
