Ghana (chocolate bar)

Ghana (Katakana: ガーナ, Korean가나) is a brand of chocolate manufactured by the Korean company Lotte Confectionery since 1964[1] and South Korea since 1975.[2] Its name is a homage to the country Ghana, one of the world's largest exporters of cocoa beans from which chocolate is made. The confectionery has a creamy texture, and is a popular brand in both South Korea and Japan.

Japan's Ghana chocolate is made by Lotte in Japan and unlike Korea's Ghana chocolate,[3] it uses cocoa butter by using the microglind method. Like Korea, the Japanese Ghana chocolate is written as 'Ghana' in English. Ghana has four kinds of chocolate wrapped in red, black, white and beige.
