Marabou Premium Fin 70% Lakrits dark chocolate

Marabou Premium Fin 70% Lakrits is a sophisticated confectionery product featuring thin dark chocolate with a 70% cocoa content enriched with licorice pieces. The Marabou brand itself is iconic within Swedish culture, having been established in 1916 by Norwegian chocolatier Johan Throne Holst as a Swedish branch of his successful Freia brand. The brand name 'Marabou' was chosen because the preferred name 'Freja' was already registered in Sweden, leading the company to name it after the stork featured in its logo.

While Marabou is quintessentially Swedish with its main production historical base in Upplands Väsby, Sweden, the 'Premium' range of dark chocolates is often part of a broader European production network. Ingredients and packaging are managed by Mondelez International, and depending on the specific batch and market, manufacturing may take place at specialized dark chocolate facilities in France or other European Union sites to meet high-quality standards. Today, Marabou is owned by the global snacking giant Mondelez International, which acquired the brand through its purchase of Kraft Foods (now split), ensuring the brand’s distribution and influence extend well into 2026 and beyond.
