In 1826 Caffarel purchased a revolutionary industrial machine, invented by Bozelli of Genoa, which was able to produce more than 300 kilos a day (a record then). Thanks to this machine, he established the first company to sell large quantities of solid chocolate. The second commercial success was Gianduja. In 1852 Caffarel introduced a new type of chocolate made by mixing cocoa, sugar and Tonda Gentile delle Langhe hazelnuts (renowned for their taste). In 1865 he began producing this unique specialty.
