Keylink’s story began in the 1970s on the outskirts of Sheffield, when founders Fred and Sue Waldman discovered fresh cream Belgian chocolates and started to import them from Europe into the UK. The small, family business rapidly grew and Keylink’s range soon expanded to include ingredients, equipment and accessories for chocolatiers and pastry chefs.  

In 1991, the Waldmans retired and the company was taken over by the current owner, Sanjeev Ramchandani. By 2000, the company had moved away from finished confections, and packaging was added to the growing ingredient product range, making Keylink a one stop shop for chocolate and confectionery businesses.  

Now, we’re proud to offer everything anyone working with chocolate and sweet ingredients could need! From artisan chocolatiers to pâtissiers, bakers and gelaterias, we stock an enormous range of chocolate and cocoa products, ingredients, decorations, fillings and flavourings, spreads, toppings, equipment, packaging, and more. And now, our range of Keylink Essentials offers an affordable way to fill, flavour and decorate your bakery creations without compromising on quality.
