So far, I have boxes stuffed with all the wrappers. I'm trying to make the time to scan, though photos would be the best. Really enjoyed your photos.

For the life of me I can't figure out who bought Russian bars in Brighton. That could be England or USA. Do you know who?

Sarah, does the shop in Brighton sell online? I too am a collector and would love to secure those four bars you mentioned.

That's a good question. The factory might already be closed now, I know it only had a few months left. But I think I booked it through one of the few English tour companies in Moscow, that was one of the few tours they offered. It was through "Patriarshy Dom Tours" spelled just that way.

Hi Sarah- im not sure I asked you before- how did you manage to tour a choc factory in Moscow?!? sounds exotic and amazing....

Yes unfortunately its a long way off, but until then maybe we can share our wrapper collections thru this website! I'll be posting them periodically from my collection- really exotic, foreign, unusual and rare ones will be fun to share- can you share yours too?

I agree- finding an ethnic area with lots of their own little import groceries (like Russian or Polish etc...) is so fun- I was surprised to find a good handful of Eatern European shops here in Tampa/St. Pete with a very large/diverse choc selection! Also Italian neighborhoods are great....
Ill be in NYC for the Nov. Choc Show for sure (and to see Wicked!)
Maybe we can meet there?

This is why I love this webiste- to meet others of like mind- and confirm im not the only one out there collecting Choc wrappers from around the world! I have thousands, have been collecting for many many years, and unless i already have it i CANNOT throw a choc bar wrapper away! they are all lovingly cared for in scrap books- I also collect pics of choc shops and magazine ads. I just love the Presentation of choc, how diff companies market it - I was going to major in Advertising but chose the travel biz instead! So I travel for cheap to visit all the choc shops i can!

I have a few Russian import/frocery stores nearby and love to stop in and marvel at the bautifully wrapped choc bars- they are OK quality but i just cant resist the fabulous Russian writing and cool designs- I actually collect choc wrappers and the ones from Eastern Europe & Russia are some of my favorites- Its cool to see my favorite word spelled in all diff languages around the world.

Sarah:

Welcome to The Chocolate Life. Many people don't know that Russia has a long tradition of chocolate (mostly not very good, but a long tradition nonetheless). Please let us know more about your factory tour and create a photo album to share if you have any photos of it.
