Must Try Foods and Drinks When Studying in Germany

German Sweets

When I first arrived in Germany and ventured into the grocery store I was so excited to find many chocolate brands that were at home quite expensive or only sold in more gourmet style shops. Brands like Ritter Sport, Kinder and many others adorned the shelves.

Ritter Sport comes in so many flavors and sizes and during holidays there tend to be special flavors offered for a limited time. I find the packaging fun as they use many colors and especially the ones which seem to be a popular gift item, which consist of a collection of the chocolates in various flavors and smaller in size. Apart from chocolates, it is common to find tons of HARIBO sweets and not just the more common HARIBO gummy bears.

Hello! I know and love this chocolate. I like that it has many different flavors. I would like to try the white one as well. I like black chocolate most of all because it's quite bitter and there's no sugar in it. What's your favorite?
