Milka
Milka is a traditional brand of chocolate confection that originated in Switzerland in 1825 and has been manufactured internationally by US confectionary company Mondelēz International (formerly known as Kraft Foods) since 1990. For more than 100 years, Milka has been mainly produced in Lörrach, Germany, producing about 140,000 tonnes of chocolate per year (2012). It is sold in bar form and in a variety of specialty shapes during Easter and Christmas. The brand also manufactures chocolate-covered cookies, snacks, and biscuits with chocolate milk .
==History==
On November 17th, 1825, the Swiss chocolatier Philippe Suchard (1797–1884) established a pâtisserie in Neuchâtel, where he sold a hand-made dessert named ''chocolat fin de sa fabrique.'' The following year, Suchard decided to expand his company and moved production to a nearby village, Serrières, Neuchâtel, where he rented a former watermill and set up a factory producing chocolate at a rate of around 25–30 kg a day. At the time, the chocolate was a very dark and bitter candy because milk was typically only added to chocolate taken in the form of drinking chocolate. It was not until the 1890s that milk was added to Suchard's chocolates, leading to the creation of what would be closer known today as the Milka alpine milk chocolates.
According to the official website, the name is derived from combining ''Milch'' and ''Kakao'', the German words for milk and cocoa, the chocolate's primary ingredients. However, Croatian sources claim it to be a tribute to Carl Russ-Suchard's admiration of Richard Wagner interpretations by Milka Ternina (1863–1941), a famous soprano of the time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Did you know? ) 〕 The chocolates are distinctively packaged in purple.
In 1970, Suchard merged with Tobler to become Interfood. Interfood merged with the Jacobs coffee company in 1982 to become Jacobs Suchard. Kraft Foods acquired Jacobs Suchard, including Milka, in 1990〔〔 and made the purple packing a Europe-wide protected colour trademark. In October 2012, the global snacks business of Kraft, including the Milka brand, became Mondelēz International.
