Albert Kirchmayr Chocolates

Mr. Kirchmayr (1956) emigrated from Munich, Germany in his early twenties. He was born in 1956 and came to Baltimore in 1978. He trained in Germany as a chef in a trade school in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. He began sending resumes and seeking employment in the U.S. in 1977. One of his first jobs was at the Café des Artistes in Mt. Washington.

In 1986, he went back to Europe because he had become fascinated with candymaking. He studied the art for one year with candy master Karl Daeuvel (Munich) and completed his studies with a two week specialized course in Lucerne, Switzerland.

His candies are ‘high end’ and he furnishes several hotels, caterers and country clubs in the area. His chocolates are fresh and the chocolate is imported from Lubeck’s in Munich.

He is a perfectionist, which may be part of his German heritage and his chocolates prove just that. He opened his chocolate shop in 1985. Recently Mr. Kirchmayr sold his business to 'long time' employees and they continue the operation at 1811 York Rd., Ste. E in the Aldi Shopping Center in Timonium.

They are committed to creating the finest confection, carefully selecting our chocolate made from the highest quality beans sourced from around the world, to ensure our chocolates have the perfect combination of bitterness, fruitiness and acidity. Contrasting sensations of liqueur, nuts and exotic fruits create the perfect balance of texture and flavor.

The dedicated team at Kirchmayr Chocolatier provides you with elegant European Chocolate to share with your family, friends and clients to begin your own Sweet Tradition.
