About this product
Creamy Milka Alpine milk chocolate paired with crisp, salted TUC crackers for a sweet-and-salty bar that is hard to put down.
Milka & TUC is a milk chocolate tablet with salted TUC crackers set into it. The crackers make up about 15% of the bar, enough to add crunch and a clear salty note to every square. In Germany it is sold as Milka & TUC.
The chocolate is Milka's Alpine milk chocolate, made with 100% Alpine milk and at least 30% cocoa solids. TUC crackers come from the same parent company, Mondelez International. The bar is made in Germany.
Malincho sells it in the USA as an independent retailer.
Taste and serving ideas
How it tastes
Sweet first, then salty. The smooth chocolate melts on your tongue while the thin cracker breaks with a light crunch and a savory, slightly buttery finish. The salt brings out the milky side of the chocolate, a bit like chocolate-covered pretzels.
Ways to enjoy it
It is a natural pick for movie nights and game days, when you want something sweet and salty at the same time.
Try a square with a cold beer or a glass of red wine, or crumble it over vanilla ice cream for a quick salted-chocolate topping.
What makes it different
Most Milka bars lean fully sweet. This one uses a savory cracker, so it appeals to people who usually find milk chocolate too sugary.
If you prefer a sweeter cookie crunch, look for its sister bar, Milka & LU, made with butter biscuits.

Questions and answers
Does Milka & TUC contain gluten?
Yes. The crackers are made with wheat flour and wheat starch, and the recipe also contains barley malt extract, so it is not suitable for a gluten-free diet.
What allergens are in it?
It contains wheat, barley, milk, soy and sulphites (from the cracker dough). It may also contain traces of egg.
Is it salty or sweet?
Both. The milk chocolate is sweet, and the TUC crackers add a noticeable salty crunch.
How big is the bar?
It is an 87g (about 3.1 oz) bar, which the label divides into about 5 servings of 2 pieces each.
How many calories are in a serving?
About 90 calories per 2-piece (17.4g) serving, based on the European label.
Where is it made?
In Germany. Malincho, an independent retailer, ships it across the USA from New Jersey.
How should I store it?
Keep it dry and away from heat. A cool pantry is better than the fridge, which can make the crackers lose their crunch.
