Here's a heroic dose of that famous German energy chocolate you're looking for! This brown gold in the easily recognizable round tin box has kept ze Germans awake and efficient since the 1930s. Scho-Ka-Kola is chocolate with lots of caffeine, essentially a mild combat drug! (Contrary to rumors, the recipe never included other psychoactive stimulants apart from caffeine.)

Scho-Ka-Kola is not for children. The taste is strong and the bits are separated so you don't have to use your bloody bayonet for the job. It is also a valid currency for bribing others in the field. If you are expecting some kind of Easter egg milk chocolate, this is not for you!

The long history told short

Scho-Ka-Kola is a dark, bitter, and strong chocolate, originally developed for sports. During WW2, Scho-Ka-Kola was a part of the aviator's iron ration and was widely issued alongside normal food distribution to the army. Getting chocolate would boost morale but soldiers' diaries also have mentioned that it would often also mean trouble ahead.

In the '60s, the selection grew 200% with the addition of milk and hazelnut options with a different taste but all the boost. These were phased out relatively soon, but the blue option made a comeback in 2012 so you can now choose between the Original and Milk Chocolate.

Comes in a very handy tin box

The tin box is shaped perfectly for field use, strong, and easy to open and close. When emptied, the boxes have plenty of uses e.g. for storing coins, RPG dices, or Boresnake and other such cleaning systems. Even your own imagination is not the limit as you can imitate others!

In 2013, we urged people to come up with new uses and modifications for Scho-Ka-Kola canisters. See the results in the picture gallery! It's all in Finnish but the images speak for themselves.
