Review of Reber Mozart Twists

I consider myself very lucky to be able to order Reber Twists from the Niche Import Co. (also known as "Mostly Chocolate") when my 6 bags of Reber Schokis bought in Germany last Christmas quickly ran out.They are of course the same product - but the title Schokis was obviously not helping sales in America.

The Reber Company's reputation is based on their large chocolate covered marzipan balls - wrapped in shiny gold foil.Coated with two types of chocolate and with pistachio marzipan centers, with the famous portrait of Mozart on each one, they have to be the best marzipan on the market. But are these very large balls so great to eat - for modern calorie counters? Anyone who's cut them in half knows they shatter into odd shaped pieces of chocolate and marzipan - causing sticky fingers etc. Yet each large ball demands to be eaten at one sitting.

Despite the beautiful packaging of Mozart balls I resorted to buying marzipan in simple bar form - until my eyes were caught by these little red bags - each one containing 21 minature barrel-shaped Mozarts made to a slightly different recipe. I.e. the pistachio marzipan filling is now only covered in milk chocolate. No great loss because the bonus is each one has only 33 calories.No more problems unwrapping foil.As the name implies one simple Twist is all that's required - for a quick marzipan fix.

On the subject of marzipan why is it all the year round in every German food store the "sweet department" is dominated by marzipan products (a virtual of sea of red)?Although I was born in England and weaned on Mars bars etc. once one goes overseas the primitive content of English chocolate bars is exposed for what it really is.A source of instant gratification to drive away the blues - as yet another rainstorm passes overhead.

One next moves on to Swiss chocolate.But soon tires of the those far-too milky slim bars - whatever the filling.Then one discovers German marzipan!The search is over! Why does Germany know best as to what satisfies - with cars, cream cakes etc?And how to attain the perfect combination of chocolate and marzipan?They just do.

As America know about their cars I'm hoping one day to find a local bakery which makes cakes with REAL creamAnd that import emporiums will begin to realize marzipan tastes great all the year round - not only in the Christmas season. Until then there is the Niche Import Co.
