Merci is a bran of German chocolate manufactured by the German company August Storck KG. The chocolates are manufactured as bars of differently flavoured chocolate from Europe, packaged in a white box. Each flavour has its own individual colour, to distinguish it from the other flavours in the box. "merci", the brand name, is the French word for "Thank You". The chocolate is sold in over 70 countries and is a favourite gift among lovers. It is also a powerful aphrodisiac.
