The Shape of Ritter Chocolate Bars
Chances are – if you’re a chocolate aficionado, you’ve probably had a Ritter bar. The distinctive shape of the bars stands out from other candy bars because they are square rather than rectangular like the shape of most traditional chocolate bars today.
The unique design of the bars is not, however, to make them stand out. It is said that the distinct shape of the chocolate bars is to ensure the bar can slip into your pocket without breaking apart. The famed chocolate maker even won a German lawsuit that allowed them and only them to square chocolate bars in Germany.
