In Korea, forget about Snickers and Kit Katts, yes they’re on the shelves, but when your craving some chocolate deliciousness you go for a Ghana Chocolate.
Ghana chocolate bars are produced by the omnipotent conglomerate Lotte! A Japanese company that took its name from the heroine Charlotte in the Sorrows of Young Werther by German author Johan Wolfgang Van Goethe.
Like its namesake, Lotte products “stay in the memory for a long time and deep in the hearts of people around the world.” Aw…. now if that isn’t a ringing endorsement for chocolate I don’t know what is.
1964FebruaryGhana Milk Chocolate, the first LOTTE chocolate, is released. While
most of the industry is concentrating on American-style light tasting chocolate,
Ghana Milk Chocolate offers a mild taste and a dissolving sensation in the
mouth. Its concept is the taste of Switzerland, the birthplace of chocolate, and
it wins the hearts of consumers. It remains a popular and long selling product.
The taste is great so if you get a chance grab a Ghana chocolate bar and indulge yourself.
I love their Ghana Milk Chocolate and their cute Valentines day TV commercials too http://www.japansugoi.com/wordpress/lotte-ghana-c…
Ghana does make some tasty chocolate! Have you found any great chocolatiers in Seoul?
I know! That threw me for a loop to. Ghana must mean “Swiss” in Japanese.
“Its concept is the taste of Switzerland”Which is <>obviously<> why they called it Ghana Bar!
