Cameo Ciobar Gusto Fondente

Ciobar is an iconic Italian brand of thick and creamy hot chocolate, highly recognized for its unique consistency that resembles a chocolate pudding when heated. Originally created by the Italian company Cameo, which is a key player in the Italian food industry specializing in desserts and baking aids, the brand has become a staple in Italian households.

The brand Cameo itself is the Italian subsidiary of the German multinational Dr. August Oetker KG. While the Dr. Oetker group is headquartered in Bielefeld, Germany, the specific Ciobar products sold in the Mediterranean market are primarily manufactured in Italy at the Cameo plants. The ultimate ownership lies with the Oetker family, who have expanded the brand globally under different names (such as Dr. Oetker or Paula) while maintaining the 'Cameo' branding specifically for the Italian and southern European sectors.
