Milka Peanut Caramel chocolate bar

Milka is one of the world's most recognizable confectionery brands, famous for its distinct lilac packaging and Alpine cow mascot. The brand originated in Switzerland in 1901, created by Philippe Suchard as a milk chocolate variety under the Suchard company. Over the decades, it became a staple of European chocolate markets, celebrated for its use of 100% Alpine milk.

Today, Milka is part of the global snacking giant Mondelez International. While the brand has Swiss roots, its production is distributed across several European facilities, most notably in Lörrach, Germany, as well as plants in Austria, Poland, and Bulgaria. Its ownership has transitioned through several major mergers, including periods under Jacobs Suchard and Kraft Foods, before Kraft spun off its global snack business into Mondelez. The brand remains a leader in the global chocolate market by emphasizing its heritage and smooth, creamy texture.
