Why it's worth it
Halloren, from Halle an der Saale, is Germany's oldest chocolate factory, and its Kugeln have been the best-known product since 1952, one of the few sweet treats widely available in the DDR. The round pralines have no Czech shelf equivalent and carry a strong East German nostalgia that makes them a genuine local find rather than an import lookalike.
