Bahlsen Akora Edelherb

Chocolate-coated gingerbread hearts · Bahlsen · Seasonal

worth it

Why it's worth it

A Christmas-only Bahlsen line that Austrian mainstream chains stock at everyday prices, sold at Billa for 2,29 EUR in a 150 g bag. The dark Edelherb shell keeps it less sweet than the milk-chocolate Vollmilch sibling, and the fruit filling stays soft in the pack, which is what the few reviewers single out. Buy it between September and December: Bahlsen files it under its winter range and it leaves the shelves for the rest of the year.

Taste

Soft honey-spice gingerbread hearts with a tangy apple-apricot fruit filling, sealed under a dark Edelherb chocolate shell; sweet overall, with the fruit cutting the spice

If you know Czech shelves

Czech shelves carry the same format from Lambertz (chocolate-coated gingerbread hearts with fruit filling, 150 g) at Globus; Bahlsen's own Akora line is only a fringe seasonal listing in Czechia, absent from Rohlík, Košík, Tesco and Lidl
