    I LOVE learning new things ... and learning new things about chocolate is the best thing EVER. I've seen Motzart chocolates before, but didn't realize they were from Austria. I didn't even know Austria was known for its chocolates. Yum!

    Makes my water just reading about all that chocolate ... YUMMO!

    If you know anyplace that ships the Bailoni apricot chocolates (they are called Marilloni) from the Wachau region, PLEASE let me know! I'd buy a CASE!
  • WordCustard Mar 28, 2012 @ 4:24 pm | delete
    They sound delicious. I can't see that anyone ships them though. :( I hope you make it back to Austria soon to stock up.

    There is a shop in Salzburg where they sell chocolate bars that have a scene of bears on them, they are made with white and milk chocolate. I'm trying to find out the name of the shop, I believe it's Braun Confiserie, but not sure. Would love to buy from them online, but not sure they have a store...
  • WordCustard Mar 14, 2012 @ 5:47 pm | delete
    I can't find an online shop for them, Jen. If you want to email them to find out if they sell online the email is: info@braun-confiserie.at

    Your lens is really interesting,and to tell you the truth I really love chocolate maybe this is why I liked your lens too!I have been to Austria's different cities including Vienna,Graz,Linz,Baden and Salzburg. When I was in Salzburg I bought Mozart Chocolates,and I really loved that.Thank you very much for your lens,and I wish you good luck!

    hmm, I love French & Swiss chocolate. Belgian is good too. Have to admit I haven't tried Austrian -- but must do so! Nice lens.

    i love chocolates, of course! i'm from here.

    Isn't it sad that they've never seen Milka in Canada? Here's a valentine's kiss for a yummy lens!
  • WordCustard Feb 14, 2011 @ 3:59 am | delete
    I'm just glad we have Milka here in the UK... Thanks for the Valentine! :)
  • Serenia Feb 13, 2011 @ 6:13 am | delete
    I have never seen any milka chocolate in Canada that I am aware of. I personally love Toblerone Chocolate. Oops - Is that Swiss? Is that the competiton?? Sorry!! Don;t mention thne competition!! LOL
    Lovely lens - Blessed by the western European Angel.
  • WordCustard Feb 13, 2011 @ 8:01 am | delete
    Yes, Toblerone is Swiss but I agree it is delicious! :) I greatly appreciate the blessing.
  • miaponzo Jan 31, 2011 @ 3:38 am | delete
    Love it.. we have milka here in Kuwait.. here people are such chcoholics! But, I personally only eat Xocai healthy chocolate since I was introduced to it.. check out my site about it..

    www.gourmethealthychocolate.com and my chocolate lenses and blogs. :)

    I love Milka, they make the best milk chocolate in the world.
  • WordCustard Oct 9, 2010 @ 8:59 am | delete
    I agree! :)

    WordCustard,
    I can't say how happy I am to find this lens. Let me explain. Our homeschool group holds a cultural fair each year and we pick a country to study. This year it's Austria. We've already studied several wonderful things about Austria and have wondered if they made chocolate. But so far, I hadn't come across any interesting info...until now! I searched Squidoo for Austria and found this fabulous (and scrumptious) lens. I had NO IDEA Milka was made in Austria. Thank you! Now when we have our fair, we will have Milka (or another one you listed) to share with our friends.
  • WordCustard Oct 3, 2010 @ 6:46 am | delete
    What a wonderful story, glad I could help! I've double checked and Milka was definitely created in Austria, though by a Swiss chocolatier (what a job!), so I'd say it more than qualifies. :) Enjoy your cultural fair, sounds a lot of fun!
  • LizMac60 Sep 14, 2010 @ 4:40 pm | delete
    What a yummy lens.
  • WordCustard Sep 15, 2010 @ 3:31 am | delete
    It's my little gift to all you chocoholics out there :)
  • 4U2C Jul 30, 2010 @ 4:12 pm | delete
    I purchased a lot, and i do mean a lot of chocolate last year, for Christmas. The Austrian chocolate he said was just marvelous! I only eat sugar-free, and once in a long while, but he is a chocoholic! We agree, Austria turns out some of the best chocolate to be had, anywhere!
  • WordCustard Aug 1, 2010 @ 4:52 am | delete
    I could eat way too much of it myself, given half a chance! Good thing I can get hold of Milka here. :)
  • Sylvestermouse Jul 16, 2010 @ 8:40 pm | delete
    These chocolates sound fabulous! I really would be like a little girl in one of these candy shops. I would want to try one of everything :) We really do need to start a Squidoo Chocolate Club. The place is full of chocoholics.
  • WordCustard Jul 18, 2010 @ 11:18 am | delete
    Ooh I like the idea of a Squidoo Chocolate Club! Don't think there would be any shortage of interested parties... :)
  • prosperity66 Jun 15, 2010 @ 2:04 am | delete
    Oh yeah! Chocolate and me is a love affair! However, I've never tried the famous "Mozart" chocolate and might give a try whenever I have the chance to visit Austria; which is really attractive country!
  • WordCustard Jun 15, 2010 @ 3:14 am | delete
    Want a featured spot as a chocolate taste tester? ;) See that swirl of chocolate at the top... don't you just want to dive right into it? I know I do! Ah we need a chocoholics society...
  • kimmanleyort Jun 6, 2010 @ 8:02 am | delete
    Just had to revisit this lens since I am going to Vienna in a couple of weeks. That Zotter chocolate looked particularly interesting, with its variety of flavors and organic, fair trade label. I will be looking for these.
  • WordCustard Jun 6, 2010 @ 10:39 am | delete
    Oh you lucky thing! Have a wonderful time and enjoy all that delicious Austrian chocolate :)
  • MikLint May 3, 2010 @ 8:09 am | delete
    Beautiful lens with great pictures and use of colors. It made my mouth water!

    From one chocolate lover to another - thank you!

    It definitely makes life sweeter! :-)

    When I visited Austria and Switzerland, I sampled so much chocolate, I thought I'd explode...instead I just got fat :) The Milka chocolate was soooo creamy and delicious. Personally I wasn't a fan of the Mozart chocolates, but of course I ate them anyway....can't pass up anything chocolate after all!
  • WordCustard Feb 17, 2010 @ 9:15 am | delete
    My strategy when in the Alps is to eat all the chocolate I want, just as long as I go on long mountain walks to work off the calories! :-)
  • KarenTBTEN Feb 14, 2010 @ 8:58 pm | delete
    Oh yes, I love chocolate, especially milk chocolate and white chocolate and... sugar-free chocolate.
  • WordCustard Feb 15, 2010 @ 6:07 am | delete
    Now we just need someone to invent calorie-free chocolate! :-)
  • mulberry Dec 31, 2009 @ 3:28 pm | delete
    mmm, looks wonderful. Definitely a topic of interest.
  • WordCustard Dec 31, 2009 @ 4:34 pm | delete
    Thanks Mulberry! I hope the New Year brings plenty chocolate your way! (If only it didn't have calories....)
  • arncyn Dec 11, 2009 @ 7:34 am | delete
    This lens made me so hungry for chocolate I almost grabbed a bag of chocolate candy (it's almost bedtime here so that's not good. (; ) Great page Nicki! I'll probably dream of strawberry yogurt-flavored chocolate (which I've never tasted!) tonight
  • chefkeem Nov 19, 2009 @ 8:34 pm | delete
    Milka used to be my favorite chocolate, back home in Germany. But the Milka available in the States, these days, is not of the same quality. I must try Zotter chocolate, as soon as I get a chance!
  • ulla_hennig Nov 12, 2009 @ 7:54 am | delete
    I love all kinds of chocolate, and Austrian Chocolate is delicious. Delicious lens!
  • d-artist Nov 4, 2009 @ 8:23 am | delete
    love this lens...5* when my daughters where young and went to visit Austria they came home with lots of Mozart Balls and Chocolate as their souvenirs...eaten and then forgotten...geesh!
  • JaguarJulie Nov 3, 2009 @ 6:48 am | delete
    Ah, yumm! European chocolate is my favorite -- really don't think I've tried Austrian chocolate yet -- I'll go with the Marc de Champagne.
  • Pukeko Oct 28, 2009 @ 4:03 pm | delete
    Love it!
  • jptanabe Oct 27, 2009 @ 10:49 am | delete
    Mmm - love chocolate! And now I really want some Austrian chocolate. Yes, my mouth is watering!
  • rlmodranski Oct 26, 2009 @ 10:07 pm | delete
    Nice lens! I've never had Austrian Chocolate, but my friend brings me German Chocolate occasionally. Great job! 5*'s for you!
