This Swiss-born chocolate brand improved its traditional recipe so that its famous chocolate bars have more cocoa flavor and are creamier on the palate.
The Swiss chocolate brand Milka was renewed this 2022: it changed its recipe, the shape of its tablets and presentation.
He added more cocoa to the new recipe; he made the tablet a more rounded shape; and he modernized his presentation without dispensing with the lilac color of its packaging or the cow, the protagonist of this brand.

“Flavor is what consumers value most when choosing chocolate and this becomes the main driving force behind the purchase decision. With the new Milka we offer an improved taste experience that will allow consumers to enjoy a greater chocolate flavor, together with greater creaminess. We are convinced that this launch will be very well received by current consumers while attracting new ones; something that is essential in order to continue developing the brand in the market”, said Gabriela Alonso, Senior Brand Manager of Milka Spain.
