Ritter Sport Milk Chocolate with Whole Hazelnuts

Ritter Sport is an iconic German chocolate brand recognized worldwide for its unique square shape and vibrant packaging. Founded in 1912 by Alfred Ritter and his wife Clara, the company introduced the signature 'Ritter’s Sport Chocolate' square format in 1932, designed to fit perfectly into a sports jacket pocket without breaking.

The brand is famous for its 'Quadratisch. Praktisch. Gut.' (Square. Practical. Good.) philosophy. Every bar is manufactured at the company's sole production facility in Waldenbuch, Germany. This centralized production ensures consistent quality and adherence to their strict sustainability standards, including their commitment to sourcing 100% certified sustainable cocoa.

Ownership of the brand has remained strictly within the founding family for over a century. Unlike many other global confectionery brands that have been acquired by large multinationals, Ritter Sport continues to be an independent, family-owned business, currently managed by the third and fourth generations of the Ritter family. Their focus remains on innovative flavor profiles and environmentally conscious manufacturing processes.
