An exquisite combination of ground hazelnuts and roasted pieces in creamy milk chocolate (33%). The hazelnut is cultivated locally in the Canterbury region of New Zealand’s South Island. New Zealand’s favorite chocolate since 1896. Creamy, silky, smooth premium artisan chocolate from New Zealand. When it comes to chocolate, it’s all about the milk. New Zealand is world famous for many things: its pristine environment, idyllic lifestyle, sailing prowess, fine wines, sensational rugby, and the best seafood. For most of us New Zealanders, the unequaled dairy products, especially the milk and butter, are a taste of home. Combine that rich, creamy milk with the world’s premier cocoa produced in Ghana and you have our (us Kiwis’) favorite chocolate. Whittaker’s uses Ghanaian cocoa, batch roasted in Porirua, New Zealand, and then turned into the very best premium chocolate bars. That’s what makes Whittaker’s chocolate such a creamy, irresistible treat for the chocolate connoisseur.
