Ritter Sport Alpenmilch Chocolate Bar

Ritter Sport is an iconic German chocolate brand established in 1912 by Alfred and Clara Ritter. The brand is famous for its unique square shape, a design choice introduced in 1932 to ensure the chocolate bar could fit into a sport jacket pocket without breaking.

While expanded globally, the core manufacturing takes place in Waldenbuch, Germany. The company remains a family-owned enterprise, currently managed by the third and fourth generations of the Ritter family. They are known for their commitment to sustainability, operating their own cocoa plantation, El Cacao, in Nicaragua to maintain high ethical standards in their supply chain.
