Lindt & Sprüngli has launched a new boutique-style shop filled with its luxury chocolate range at Sydney’s Macquarie Centre.

It’s the fifth Lindt Chocolate Shop in New South Wales and is designed to offer a more ‘premium chocolate shopping experience’ with an exclusive range that includes a new Gourmet Selection offering.

The special Gourmet chocolates come in seven flavours of premium roasted nuts and fruit coated in Lindt Chocolate.

The boutique shop also offers a selection of masterfully crafted chocolate slabs with gourmet ingredients and a wide variety of Lindt’s signature pralines.

Shoppers can select a gift box from three different sizes and fill it with an assortment of their favourite flavours of Lindor balls and other Lindt chocolates at a custom ‘Pick and Mix’ station.

The boutique’s Lindt Chocolate Bar will also offer a range of takeaway hot and cold drinks made with pure Lindt chocolate.

“It is a great addition to our NSW Lindt Chocolate Shop locations and we know the shoppers at Macquarie Centre will enjoy indulging in the exclusive gourmet ranges on offer,” CEO Lindt Australia Stephen Loane said.

The boutique store joins over 380 international and national brands at Macquarie Centre, which is considered a major destination for luxury Australian brands, dining, entertainment and fresh food, located in Sydney’s northern suburb of North Ryde.
