About the history of Schokakola

Scho-Ka-Kola was created in 1935 by the Hildebrand chocolate factory in Berlin—and its name spells out its ingredients: Schokolade (chocolate), Kaffee (coffee), and Kolanuss (kola nut). Introduced at the 1936 Berlin Olympics as a performance-enhancing sport chocolate, it was an immediate novelty with a very practical purpose.

What makes Scho-Ka-Kola unique is its caffeine content: a full 100g tin contains approximately 200mg of caffeine, all sourced naturally from its ingredients. The chocolate itself—58% cocoa, with roast coffee and kola—has an intensely dark, slightly bitter character that sets it apart from conventional chocolate.

The iconic red-and-white tin design and the recipe itself have remained essentially unchanged since 1935. For collectors, history enthusiasts, hikers, or anyone who appreciates a functional chocolate with serious heritage, Scho-Ka-Kola is both a curiosity and a genuine pleasure.
