Remco Brigou, Head Chocolatier and Product Innovation Manager at Koko Black said, “Every single person has memories they can look back to as the ‘good old days’ – where milk bars were on every corner, and where summers were filled with memories of birthday parties, fetes and trips to the tuckshop.

“We want our Australian Classics Collection to reinvent these moments in a contemporary way, making people feel those fond Australian memories are here. That the golden days are now, and that you’re never too old to feel young again.”

The new range is now available online but won’t drop in stores until September 24. If you can’t decide on just one, Koko Black is offering the Ultimate Hamper for $169 which features the entire Australian Classics line-up. What a dream!
