Kraš Bananko

Chocolate-coated banana foam · Kraš · Chocolate & candy

must-try

Why it's worth it

On Croatian shelves since 1991, Bananko is one of the most popular packaged sweets in the country. The intense banana hits people differently, so it is a distinctly Croatian try rather than a safe import. Closest thing at home is Orion's chocolate-covered banana, but the foam texture is quite different.

Taste

Firm banana-flavoured foam under a thin milk-chocolate shell; the foam is denser than marshmallow, the banana note strong and unmistakably candy-banana
