Beer gardens, brats and sauerkraut, and Bavarian soft pretzels with beer cheese are as well known here as they are in Deutschland. But while German candy might not be on your radar, it really should be. After tasting our way through 9 popular German candies, Milka chocolate bars are the creamy chocolate delight that should be on any chocoholic's radar."
"The hints of Alpine milk are clear, tempering the bitterness of dark chocolate while also giving each square a melt-in-your-mouth creamy texture. A quick glance at the simple ingredients list notes that this bar has clarified butter and hazelnut paste, contributing to the creamy consistency and the complexity of the dark chocolate; the cocoa flavor was pronounced enough to satisfy dark chocolate lovers but sweet and creamy enough to wow milk chocolate lovers as well. The quality of ingredients and craftsmanship that went into Milka chocolate made us savor each square."
Milka originated in Switzerland and has been manufactured in Germany since 1901. The brand claims to use Alpine milk from the mountainous region shared by Germany and Switzerland. Milka offers over 20 chocolate-bar flavors; the tested variety was the dark chocolate Zartherb Extra Cocoa with 45% cocoa. Alpine milk tempers dark chocolate bitterness and creates a melt-in-the-mouth creamy texture. The simple ingredients list includes clarified butter and hazelnut paste, adding creaminess and flavor complexity. The cocoa flavor is pronounced enough for dark-chocolate fans yet sweet and creamy enough to please milk-chocolate lovers. Milka bars are widely available at retailers like World Market, Walmart, and Target.
