Whittaker's Creamy Milk Hazelnut Block

Whittaker's Creamy Milk Hazelnut Block is a premium chocolate bar produced by J.H. Whittaker & Sons, a legacy confectioner based in New Zealand. Founded in 1896 by James Henry Whittaker, the company has maintained its reputation for quality by controlling the entire manufacturing process from bean to bar at its single factory in Porirua, Wellington. The brand is celebrated for its traditional '5 Roll Refined' process and its use of high-quality ingredients like Ghanaian cocoa and New Zealand dairy.

Ownership of the brand remains strictly private to this day. J.H. Whittaker & Sons is a family-owned business, with current leadership consisting of the third and fourth generations of the Whittaker family. Unlike many other global chocolate brands that have been acquired by multinational conglomerates, Whittaker's has successfully remained independent, preserving its heritage and commitment to New Zealand-based manufacturing. The company is actively exported to several markets, including Australia, Southeast Asia, and North America, but all production remains centralized in its home country.
