Ovomaltine chocolate bars

I am obsessed with these chocolate bars. Not only because they are delicious, but also because they are rare -- they are completely unavailable in any store or on any web site in the US.

Country of origin: Switzerland

Flavor: milky and sweet, with the bitter, malty tang of Ovaltine crystals that are mixed right into the chocolate.

Texture: first smooth, and then slightly stickier and gritty as the drink powder bits melt on your tongue after the chocolate surrounding them has disappeared.

If you love milk chocolate, and you have a friend or family member traveling to Switzerland, ask them to bring some back for you to try.



We had two bars in our home a day ago, and now they are gone!
