Chile Chocolate Bars




My favorite candy in Chile is the chocolate bar Super 8 or Super Ocho. It has a similar taste to a kit kat or those Little Debbie treats. This candy is available anywhere they sell candy, like those kiosks on the street in Santiago. Super ocho is even sold by street vendors in the public buses around the city. I love Chocolate from chile. Another favorite candy bar is Sahne-Nuss. This candy should be sold in the states, I don't really get why its not sold there. The Sahne-Nuss is a much more premium priced sweet than Super Ocho, I've paid about 250-350 (50-65 cents) Chilean pesos for Super Ocho and like ($1.00-$1.25)500-800 pesos for the smallest Sahne-Nuss. The King-sized one shown here costs about 3.000 ($6.00 us).

Mi chocolate favorito en Chile es el Super 8. Tiene un sabor similar a un Kit-Kat o Little Debbie.  Esta barra esta disponible en cualquier lugar donde vendan dulces, como en los kioskos en las calles de Santiago. Incluso se venden por vendedores ambulantes dentro de las micros (buses). Me encanta el chocolate de Chile. Otro favorito es el Sahne-Nuss. Este deberia ser vendido en los Estados Unidos, todavia no entiendo como no lo venden alla. El Sahne-Nuss es mucho mas caro que el super ocho, es el chocolate premium de Chile. Un Super-ocho cuesta entre 250-350 pesos chilenos y un Sahne Nuss pequeño entre $500-800. La barra grande de Sahne-nuss cuesta como CH$3.000.
