Ritter Sport Dark Chocolate Peppermint Candy
Ritter has been around since 1912, made it through two world wars and they are still making chocolate today! Their claim to fame, aside from their great taste and variety, is that they are the first chocolate company to make their bars in a square. This was so it was easier to fit in your pocket, unlike the longer bars of their competitors. The dark chocolate and the peppermint compliment each other in this large chocolate bar.
