Ritter Sport
German chocolate tradition
This traditional, family owned German chocolate manufacturer was established in 1912 in Bad Cannstatt, Germany by husband & wife Ritter with the idea to "make a chocolate that fits in every sports jacket pocket without breaking and has the same weight as a normal long bar" - giving the famous chocolate brand its name - Ritter Sport.
Authentic German Ritter Sport, Shipped from New Jersey
Ritter Sport is one of Germany's most recognizable chocolate brands — known worldwide for its snap-apart square bars and the family motto Quadratisch. Praktisch. Gut. ("Square. Practical. Good."). Family-owned and produced in Germany since 1912, each bar is made with 100% certified sustainably sourced cocoa, and the square format was designed from the start to fit a jacket pocket without breaking.
One Stop German Shop carries 40+ Ritter Sport varieties — including flavors that rarely reach US shelves, from Alpine Milk and Marzipan to Cornflakes, Honey Salt Almonds, and the classic dark and whole-hazelnut squares. Every order is imported directly from Germany and ships from our New Jersey warehouse across the USA. In the summer months, chocolate orders ship in a free insulated cooling pouch with ice packs, so your squares arrive in perfect condition.
Ritter Sport FAQ
Why is Ritter Sport chocolate square?
The square shape traces back to the brand's founding idea in 1912: a chocolate bar that fits in a jacket pocket without breaking, while holding the same weight as a standard long bar. It became the brand's signature — and its motto, "Quadratisch. Praktisch. Gut."
How many Ritter Sport flavors can I buy here?
We stock 40+ Ritter Sport varieties, including many that are hard to find in US stores — Alpine Milk, Marzipan, Cornflakes, Honey Salt Almonds, Whole Hazelnuts, and more, across milk, dark, and white chocolate.
Is Ritter Sport authentic German chocolate?
Yes. Ritter Sport is family-owned and produced in Germany, made with 100% certified sustainably sourced cocoa. Every bar we sell is imported directly from Germany — not a US-market reformulation.
Will the chocolate melt during shipping?
In warm months we ship every chocolate order in an insulated cooling pouch with ice packs, free of charge, so your Ritter Sport arrives solid and in perfect condition anywhere in the USA.
