Kinder Bueno (is German for "children", is Spanish for "good") is a chocolate biscuit and wafer confection made by Italian confectionery maker Ferrero. Part of the Kinder Chocolate brand line, Kinder Bueno is a hazelnut-cream-filled wafer covered in milk chocolate and a dark chocolate drizzle.[1]

Kinder Bueno was launched in 1990 and is available in 60 countries.[2] It is sold in packs of two, three, six, and boxes of twelve.

Production

The Kinder Bueno bar is made in the factories of France and Warsaw, Poland. As of 2022, a new production facility for the North American market is being constructed in Bloomington, Illinois.

Product range

Mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbon contamination

The European Food Safety Authority found the chocolate to be contaminated with high levels of mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH), a likely carcinogen.[14] [15] Hydrocarbon contamination is often caused by grain processing techniques, or is introduced to the food by the product's packaging. Kinder's parent company Ferrero disagreed with the EFSA finding, and maintained all products contain below the maximum levels for human consumption. Other common chocolate products were found to contain similar or higher levels of contamination.[16]
