And they’re super delicious! Salted caramel is my favourite!
It’s a tad on the expensive side, but it is SO GOOD. I recommend the “Romige hazelnoot crunch” (lit. Creamy hazelnut crunch, dunno if that’s the actual intl name though).
Might want to find a different EU brand, Tony’s sweets aren’t just sweet from sugar. They’re really high in lead. :P

Ahh, I knew it was stupid good.
Looks like it’s within eu’s maximum (0.8mg rather than canada’s 0.5mg presented there)
I mean, a bit of lead would probably be quite beneficial, based on the likelihood of thermonuclear war. /j
As someone in the industry, I will say this is an issue with all chocolate manufacturing and it’s getting worse. You should still avoid the brands in that list, but don’t assume your favorite brand will continue to stay safe.
Damn
