As a huge chocolate lover, I try any and every kind of chocolate that I can find. Based on almost 30 years of research, I must say that the German Ritter Sport chocolate bars are by far the best chocolate to be had. Ritter Sport is an inexpensive but high-quality chocolate that is available at a large number of grocery stores in the U.S. and most Target stores. The average price of a Ritter Sport is $1.50 to $2.50 per 100 gram bar, which may seem expensive until you realize that a normal size Hershey chocolate bar is approximately 40 grams of chocolate.
My very favorite Ritter Sport chocolate is the Ritter Sport Alpine Milk Chocolate bar. Currently there are 18 different varieties of Ritter Sport available, with the occasional availability of limited edition flavors. The Ritter Sport bars are unique in both their appearance and packaging. Each Ritter Sport chocolate bar is square in shape and is comprised of 16 smaller squares to allow you to break the bar up into smaller more manageable pieces and to allow you the convenience of portion control. The packaging is vibrant in color and is unique in the manner in which it opens up. Instead of being wrapped in a sort of foil with paper over top, the Ritter Sport is in a plastic handy snap-open package. What this type of packaging means is that you can easily snap open your Ritter Sport any time or any place and it is just as easy to reseal it without making a mess or losing the freshness of the Ritter Sport bar.
The taste of Ritter Sport chocolate bars is like no other chocolate I have tasted before. If it is possible, Ritter Sport chocolate is the creamiest chocolate you can find and it literally melts in you mouth in a flavor explosion. To get such an unmistakable flavor in their addictive chocolate bars, Ritter Sport uses three different types of cocoa in the production of the Ritter Sport bars, unlike most chocolate bar producers. For their chocolate, Ritter Sport uses two high-quality cocoas from Africa as well as a fine cocoa from Papua New Guinea. The Ritter Sport commitment to quality does not end with the cocoa – it extends to the ingredients that are in the bars, such as hazelnuts. In fact, for my favorite Alpine Milk Chocolate bar, Ritter Sport only uses 100% pure whole Alpine milk from cows in the Alpine region. Such a demanding commitment to quality is obvious in one taste of the divine Ritter Sport chocolate bars.
Ritter Sport has a chocolate bar to fit everyone’s sweet tooth. Besides my favorite Alpine Milk Chocolates, they also offer the following varieties of chocolate bars: Butter Biscuit, Peppermint, Whole Nut, Rum Raisin & Hazelnut, White Whole Hazelnut, Yogurt, Marzipan, Raisin Hazelnut, Corn Crisp, Milk Chocolate, Coconut, Dark Chocolate, Cappuccino, Dark Whole Hazelnut, Chocolate Crème, Praline, and Whole Almond. At some retailers, you can also find mini Ritter Sports in a pack of 7. And the newest Ritter Sports implement the new sugar substitute, maltite, and are a diet chocolate that is available exclusively in Germany.
