Made with whole almonds and sugar, it's often covered in chocolate for an extra bit of indulgence, making a truly inspired snack or after-dinner treat.

Reisen was the first-ever company to launch a confectionary that was wrapped instead of being sold loosely in jars.

Ok, so the Germans can't technically claim this chocolate as their own, as it was first invented in Switzerland in 1901. But, Germany has been making it for over 100 years, so they deserve some claim for its success.

In fact, Milka is probably one of the most famous brands of chocolate associated with Germany, known over for its mild, creamy flavor and texture. It's also very popular come the Christmas holiday season and also at Easter - Milka Easter Eggs prove rather irresistible for many!

While Kinder manufacturing is split between Germany and Italy these days, the chocolate was originally invented in Germany back in the 50s. Kinder chocolate comes in a variety of designs, with the most famous being the small, hollow, egg-shaped variety with a toy contained inside. There are also chocolate bars in a range of flavors, including hazelnut cream.

Hitschler has created candies Snap Chews which have been a big hit on the market. They consist of a thin crispy shell and inside a soft, chewy, and oh-so-flavorful centre. They have also created soft chews if you don't fancy a crunchy outer layer, as well as a tongue-twisting sour candy selection too.

What's great about the company is that all Hitschler candies are made with real fruits and contain no GMOs.

Family-owned brand Ritter Sport makes just about every flavor of chocolate going, from strawberry creme to hazelnut cream, raspberry, orange, peppermint and more. The chocolates are probably best known for their 4x4 square design alongside their amazing taste.

Last but not least, we couldn't make a list of the best German candy without putting emphasis on the famous Gummi Bears. These delicious German candies go back almost 100 years when they were first invented in Bonn, but it wasn't until 1982 that the soft but chewy treats began to be exported and shared with the rest of the world.

These chewy sugar staples are now even more popular than ever, made from gelatin and coming in various flavors in each pack, including orange, lemon, raspberry, apple and more, these chewy sugar staples are now even more popular than ever!
