Maître Truffout Mozart Bars, Austrian Chocolate 200g (7oz)

Maitre Truffout Mozart Bars are Austrian chocolate bars with a pistachio marzipan and hazelnut nougat filling, produced in the Mozart confectionery tradition that Salzburg established as a gift category in the late 19th century — here in bar format rather than the traditional round-ball form, making the pistachio marzipan core accessible in a portable everyday chocolate. Maitre Truffout is an Austrian confectionery producer, and their Mozart Bars extend the Salzburger Mozartkugel concept — the confection of pistachio marzipan, hazelnut nougat, and chocolate named for Mozart — into the bar format that the export and diaspora market can stock on a regular basis rather than as a special-occasion gift box. The Mozartkugel tradition dates to Paul Fürst's original 1890 Salzburg confection, and the combination of pistachio, marzipan, and chocolate has since become the defining flavour of Austrian luxury confectionery in the eyes of the diaspora and the European tourist alike. Eat with a coffee as the Austrian afternoon confection that delivers the pistachio-marzipan combination in a convenient format, give as the gift-register Austrian chocolate, or serve on a plate after dinner as the small, rich dessert sweet.
