Inspired by the post about Dutch chocolate, I wanted to give Zotter some attention.

They have really funky creations and all their raw materials are ethically sourced

(Thanks to @fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com now with English links :โ -โ ))

They have an online shop as well, which seems to practically distribute worldwide

Ah, thanks!

I looked for a way to set it to English and couldn't find it
(Will try to update the post, thanks again!)

Where do you live?
If you're really interested, we could maybe find a way, where I just send it to you (or privacy respecting: to a pickup station near you)?

I appreciate the sentiment, but i live in the arabian peninsula (not specific for privacy) and since delivering to here is a PITA due to certain religious laws etc i don't think it's worth the pain and money ๐Ÿ˜…

But thank you for the kind offer! I'm sure if i ever visit europe i'll get me one (and a kofola too) lol.

Ah, I see, that's a pity

In an age, where people all around the world can communicate and exchange ideas in seconds, it's still a PITA to actually share locally produced products.

There is so much stuff, I'd like other people to try, that we have here in Austria.
And the other way round, I'd really like to taste my way through the pearls of different kitchens of the world.

Well, hopefully some day either teleportation gets real or we find a way to authentically print food stuff ;โ -โ )
