Who doesn't remember the commercial with the purple cow? The Milka brand is a chocolate that could clearly and clearly declare itself, using an unusual color for chocolate manufacturers, as well as captivating with a delicate milky taste and a wide assortment.

Issue price in 2015

The situation in the country is such that the expression "pamper yourself with sweets" has really become "pampering". An ordinary citizen does not like to lay out something like a hundred rubles for a bar of chocolate. Yes, yes, if back in 2013 a Milka bar cost 55-60 rubles, and all kinds of dragees and sweets cost 35-40 rubles (for 57 grams), now Milka chocolate, the price of which is over 100 grams - 85-90 rubles, an unaffordable luxury. Grandmothers will have a hard time making their granddaughter happy with chocolate.

Chocolate ingredients

If earlier, when preservatives were not yet used for the preparation of products, only cocoa, sugar and milk were present in chocolate, now you can eat this if you decide to cook it yourself at home. The taste will certainly be greatlybe different, and a lot of money will be spent. It’s good if all the products are not spent in vain, and yet you will get a wonderful chocolate work. And if not, and not quite chocolate will come out?

"Milka", the composition of the bar which includes sugar and cocoa, also consists of:

- whole milk powder;

- whey powder;

- skimmed milk powder;

- milk fat.

It also contains cocoa butter, various types of fillings (nuts, caramel, strawberries), which are flavored with glycerin, emulsifier, citric acid and / or flavors - depending on what type of chocolate you want to purchase.

Don't be scared, because you consume all these "charms" every day, buying any other product - sausages, yogurt, mayonnaise, ketchup, croutons, other bars, chips, etc. In small quantities, these substances for the most part safely leave the body without harming it. And "Milka" - chocolate, which needs them so that this product does not deteriorate in a short time, since export takes place over large territories. Naturally, this also makes it cheaper and easier to make the sweet.

Afraid?

If all this worries and worries you, then switch to subsistence farming, gardening, animal husbandry and eat the right, he althy food. Having got used to being prepared and brought on a silver platter (only pay money), you should not scold manufacturers for those elements thatallow you to keep perishable products longer. It is worth scolding the Ministry of He alth that it does not work on the control of food additives, does not analyze their harmfulness, does not set strict restrictions and heavy fines for their violations.

5. Aerated chocolate "Bubbles" (80 g).
6. Chocolate Hazelnuts (56g).
7. Milk Chocolate Raisin Corn Flakes (57g, 125g).

History

The Milka brand appeared somewhat later than chocolate itself. 1826 was marked by the fact that the Swiss Philippe Suchard invented an apparatus for mixing cocoa powder with sugar. It is this apparatus that is still in use today.

In those years, a product like chocolate was a delicacy only for people with high incomes, so it was not easy to develop a "business". It was necessary to please "thick wallets", and suchThe opportunity presented itself at a difficult time. The royal court of Prussia made an order for high gentlemen from Phillip, and they were impressed with the taste of his products. This was followed by popularity abroad, victories at international exhibitions, opening a factory abroad, occupying approximately 50% of the chocolate market in Switzerland.

In 1901, the first bar of milk chocolate called "Milka" came out. Chocolate got its name (according to the first theory) from the combination of two words - "Milk" and "Kakao" (that's how "cacao" is written in Swedish), and as a result came out "Milka". The second version tells us that the inventor Suchard was a big fan of the Croatian singer Milka Ternina.

What is remarkable about this brand is the color scheme for packaging. Philip Schupard noticed that the purple color is not typical for other manufacturers, and this made it possible to distinguish his brand from the rest. And so it happened. This is true even now, as the purple packaging is very noticeable among black, yellow, blue, white and red.

Whose production is now?

In the seventies of the last century, the Milka brand (chocolate) teamed up with Toblerone, also a Swiss chocolate. This merger gave birth to a new firm, Interfood.

In 1982, Toblerone merged with Jacobs Coffee to form Jacobs Suchard.

1990 - the year of transition under the wing of the American corporation Kraft Foods Inc.

In 2012 Kraft Foods Inc. divided into two parts, and nowthe Milka brand is owned by Mondelez International Inc.

It's interesting that the production of the now American brand takes place at local facilities. So, for example, the first production of this chocolate in Russia took place at a confectionery factory in the Vladimir region (the city of Pokrov). It is clear that no Alpine milk will reach here, but rather only the original technology will be used. Some ingredients, most likely, are domestic, because those who blame excessive sweetness, some cloying and specificity of taste should understand its true origin, and also take into account that this chocolate is still for the majority of Russian consumers (perhaps not everyone, but some of its types) really, really like it.

Now "Milka" - chocolate, which, as before, is in the middle price range and pleases its consumer with a delicate sweet taste. If you are a fan of exclusively dark chocolate, then do not judge Milka, because this is a completely different chocolate product that has its fans.
