Pocket Coffee

Classic Pocket Coffee is an iconic chocolate candy filled with authentic Italian espresso. It was created in 1968 in Alba by Michele Ferrero who had a brilliant idea after dinner during a walk. In those years there were no bars or truck stops. He had to deal with days full of work and wanted to create a product that could lift up all the workers who were always on the move and give them the right charge. He created even the slogan of the pocket coffee and it reads, “the energy of chocolate and the charge of coffee.
Its ingredients are of the highest quality: 100% Arabica coffee (a secret blend of 4 varieties, created specifically to marry with pocket coffee’s chocolate). Each coffee variety has been selected after quality checks on plantations in Brazil, Costa Rica, S. Domingo and Colombia.
