Parra Chocolate

The brand was born in 1934 with the name "Shamnunit". It received its present name in the nineteen-fifties, after the picture of the cow adorning the wrapper. For 80 years, the popular product has accompanied generation after generation of Israelis, just like the slogan that has accompanied the brand: "Parra Chocolate – Always With You".

Over the years a variety of flavors were added, such as white chocolate, chocolate with hazelnuts, dragées, popping candy and milk cream filling, allowing everyone to choose his or her own special favorite.
