3 x 66 gram "Troika" dark chocolate bars from Nidar in Trondheim, Norway  - Made since 1939

One of the most beloved Norwegian chocolates! 

Troika - Triple pleasure

With its three delicious layers of raspberry jelly, truffle and marzipan, covered in dark chocolate, Troika is the ultimate indulgent chocolate.

Ever since Norwegians first tasted this chocolate confection, the way to eat Troika has been a very special experience for many, and dedicated Troika eaters often have their own eating rituals. Some prefer to divide the chocolate into small pieces and eat one piece at a time. Others prefer to eat the chocolate coating first, then the rest of the chocolate – layer by layer.
A third favorite is to save the jelly for last.

The Story Behind Troika

Troika has had an affair with the Norwegian people ever since the chocolate first saw the light of day in 1939. At the time, the chocolate was called Geletröffel, named after two of its three layers.

Many years later, Mr Tore Bakke was hired as sales manager at Nidar. He thought that Troika was so special that it deserved a more exotic name. At the time, several of Nidar's other candies had exotic names, playing on other countries and continents. Therefore, it was natural for Mr Bakke to choose a name from another culture. He landed on the R ussian word Troika, which means "three" or "wooden crate", and the chocolate was thus named after its three tempting layers.

IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR MY AMERICAN CUSTOMERS:

Ever since I started selling on eBay in 2012, I have offered "free shipping" on all my items/auctions. The reason I have been able to offer this is that I have used older stamps as franking and I have great access to this and have been able to keep costs down.

From January 1, 2026, unfortunately new rules came from the US and all shipments to the US must now be registered online, US customs fees must be prepaid by the seller (me), and shipping must be paid with a credit card. Postage stamps are now only allowed on normal letters and postcards without any value, and part of the customs handling fee. From 1st January, I was unfortunately forced to charge full shipping, (which is very expensive from Norway) to all my American customers. To all other countries in the world, I can still frank with stamps and still offer free shipping. 80% of all orders that come in from eBay are sent to the USA so needless to say this is disastrous for my business, but unfortunately nothing I can do anything about, and I must start concentrating on selling to other countries. As an example, I can send a 2-kilo package of goods to a customer in Canada, Japan, or Australia with free shipping (franked with older stamps), while an American customer must pay over US$25 for the same package. I really regret this, both for you and me. I am in the US a lot both on vacation and for work, (my main job is for an American company based in Miami), and I think the US is a wonderful country, but the new tariff rules are of course not to my liking.
