Organic Whole Milk Chocolate

Organic Whole Milk Chocolate, milky, tender and cocoa-forward

Berger Confiserie's Organic Whole Milk Chocolate is a handmade milk chocolate from Salzburg's Saalach Valley, certified organic. With 37 percent cocoa it tastes milky and creamy, with a fine depth of cocoa beneath the sweetness.

Organic Whole Milk Chocolate is what Berger Confiserie calls its tender, melting milk chocolate from Lofer in Salzburger Land, made from organic ingredients. Its 37 percent cocoa gives it more character than you would expect from a milk chocolate: milky and creamy, yet with a calm depth of cocoa that lingers to the last bite.

Milky, creamy, with a gentle melt

At the first break the bar snaps softly, then a tender, milky melt spreads across the tongue, given a gentle depth by the 37 percent cocoa.

First you taste the creamy whole milk, round and mild, accompanied by a touch of real vanilla – then the cocoa arrives, not loud but distinct, and keeps the sweetness in check. Berger itself picks out hints of caramel, walnut and coffee in the bar, along with a subtle trace of cinnamon. Milky, creamy, tender – and yet with backbone. If you usually find milk chocolate too tame, this one might make you think again.

Six ingredients, all organic

For this bar, Berger uses only ingredients from organic farming.

Raw cane sugar, cocoa butter, whole milk powder and cocoa mass come from organic farming, along with real vanilla and a little sunflower lecithin – this bar needs nothing more.

It's effort you can't see in the bar, but in the end it makes the difference. You'll find it among our chocolate bars, in the best of company.

What began in a garage in 1994

Berger Feinste Confiserie began in 1994 in a garage in Lofer, where Hubert and Christine Berger, after years as journeymen in Belgium and Germany, made their first chocolates by hand.

The garage belonged to Hubert's father, who once ran a taxi business from it – today it has become one of the finest addresses in Austria, with around 100 employees and nine shops across the country.

At Schokoladenweg 1, chocolatiers, candy makers and confectioners still work by hand, variety by variety, out of a passion for good chocolate, just as Hubert and Christine did from the very beginning. Alongside the milk chocolate, its dark sister, the organic dark chocolate, is well worth reaching for.

With East Frisian tea and over semolina pudding

The bar holds 90 g of chocolate, for breaking and sharing. With an espresso, a milky coffee or simply as a treat in between, the mild milk chocolate is especially lovely. Stored cool and dry, away from strongly scented neighbors in the cupboard, it keeps its tender melt for a long time.

A strong espresso counters the milky sweetness with its roasted bitterness, and broken over warm semolina pudding, the bar melts all by itself. A piece also holds its own next to a glass of port or a cup of strong East Frisian tea. As a small gift, the bar brings as much joy as the rest of the Berger range, where filled and flavored varieties are waiting for you.
