Candy Blog

1. Hi,

   I just happened upon this site.  I spent some time in Lithuania and can tell you that Karuna and Princess (my favorite just happened to be the Strawberry cream filled Princess bars) are two of the best.  You’re not likely to find this chocolate outside of Eastern Europe, unless you order it over the internet.  Bring’s back memories, though.  My friends and I were averaging a bar a day, but we walked about 30 minutes to school one way, so I guess we could get away with eating that much chocolate.  I never got sick of it.  Yum! 

   Iki (see you in Lithuanian)

2. Great blog, thanks!

   If memory serves Karuna means crown and is the name of the factory/company/Kraft subsidiary.
   And I agree about the strawberry filled Princess! In general I’ve noticed Eastern European strawberry and/or youghurt flavoured chocolates to be remarkably good. Perhaps it is something in that style of chocolate that “marries” the berry/slightly sour flavours in a way Western -style chocolate (whether Scandinavian, German, Swiss or Belgian/French style) just can’t?

8. I LOVE these candy bars. I lived in Lithuania for a couple of years and probably ate one of these candy bars almost everyday. Does anyone know how to order one of these candy bars online?

9. I am here to explain the difference between Karuna and Princas. (By the way, I am almost 100 percent sure that the packages have English explanations on them.) Karuna is a true chocolate, I mean, only cocoa fats are used in it. What is more, there are more types of Karuna chocolate. In addition to the milk one here, there are also dark chocolate bars, dark chocolate bars with nuts and with several fillings. Princas, on the other hand, is made with using vegetable fats in addition to cocoa butter. This makes its melting temperature a bit lower so it becomes rather sticky and less enjoyable (for me, at least) during the hotter days. What is more, there are several types of Princas chocolate, but all of them are milky - as opposed to Karuna.
   However, these are one of the better Lithuanian chocolate bars.

12. hanelise, you should try searching for a Lithuanian Foods store. I know there are some in London. That’s were you should be able to find some Miglė‘s.

13. oh, this is something I know very well Since I’m Latvian (and that is pretty close to Lithuania, you know), I eat Princas and Karuna bars all the time, and I find them very good, although maybe bot the BEST… But Migle are probably one of the best chocolate treats I’ve ever had, I love them, and (thank God) I can get them at a Maxima store that is just 5 minutes from my house. 
    Anyway, when it comes to sweets, you, americans, win. I would love to live in a country with such a large choice of sweets.
