Riesen chocolate caramel

Riesen is a well-known brand of chocolate-covered caramel candy that originated in Germany. It was the first candy brand introduced by the Storck company in the 1930s. Originally known as Storck 1-Pfennig Riesel, the product was designed as a long-lasting, chewy treat. Over the decades, it evolved into the dark chocolate-enrobed chewy caramel that consumers recognize today, gaining international popularity for its rich, intense cocoa flavor.

The product is primarily manufactured in Germany at August Storck KG's production facilities. The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of August Storck KG, a family-owned German confectionery giant that also manages other famous brands like Werther's Original and Toffifee. This ownership structure has allowed the brand to maintain its traditional recipe while expanding its reach to markets across Europe, North America, and beyond.
