Freia :)

Freia

 The trip to Freia was historic. We had very many experiences and learned a lot. We made ​​our own milk chocolate. We have learned about cocoa beans. Of the seeds produced cocoa and chocolate. We have seen a lot of movies about chocolate. We have seen how they make the chocolate and many other things about the factory.

 

 

Johan Throne Holst.

He made Freia chocolate factory. Holst was basically no dream of producing chocolate. He envisioned a wholesaler of coffee and colonial goods, but above all he dreamed of becoming an industrialist.  In 1892 Johan Throne Holst bought up Freia factory in Verksgata 25 B Rodeløkka in Oslo. The company spoke seven employees.   Johan Throne Holst was born in Trondheim on February 7, 1868. He did make Freia chocolate fabric.

 

 

Quick Lunch is the product name for a chocolate biscuit launched by candy manufacturer Freia in 1937, and has been on sale since - except for a period during and after World War II between 1941 and 1949, production was stopped partly because of the lack of sugar and quality of flour. The chocolate consists of four oblong biscuit pieces surrounded by chocolate and the biscuit pieces are chocolate made thinner so that it is easier to share the chocolate. The chocolate is in the advertisement has been portrayed as “outdoor chocolate ", and many associate it with skiing, especially during the Easter holidays, where chocolate is often used as energizing provisions. Quick Lunch is currently manufactured by Kraft Foods and sold in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

 

 During one year eats every Norwegian averaged nine Quick Lunch chocolates. Three of these are eaten during Easter. There are annually produced about 50 million records, of which 4-500 tons are produced Easter. A small proportion of production sold at duty-free trade in Sweden and Denmark.

FREIA

Hey Larissa here!

Wensday 24th we went to Freia, one of norwegians choclate factorys, and it was a amazing experience, but we got to much chocolate, so I havn`t eaten it since that day. On the factory we made our own choclate, and we went on diffrent "tours", we even travelled in time! Haha, not actually, we stept in a small gold colored room, and than just stood there untill the guide told us to step out. We also got told a story, about a king or something from year 1500 I think, he found the cocoa beans, and the beans became more valuable than money! Isn`t that weird? Now I have told about nearly everything from our tour, so let me tell you litle bit aboult Freia!

Freia`s History
 In 1904 started Freia to produce finer sort "eat chocolate" which previously only had been imported in the world outside. To produce such a chocolate, it was necessary to improve both equipment and production in Rodeløkka. Most significantly given a method that Freia in 1906 bought from Switzerland. This manufacturing method established by Dr. Armin Kaiser, namely resulted in our unique Freia milk chocolate.

 

 

  Freia Milk chokolade was the original name of what in the 1920s was said to be "Europe's best eat choclate". To emphasize that it was imported, added, one might assume that it was Norwegian. Only when the chocolate came back on the market after the war, was Freia Milk Chocolate spelled as we do today after the spelling reform of 1939

 
  The summer of 1949 started Freia production of Japp, and this was the first major chocolate news came on the market after World War II. Soft maltnougat and a thin layer of caramel coated with Freia Milk Chocolate was party food for sjokolademonser who had lived with rationing a decade. Japp was an instant success, particularly among youth.

 
 

In 1892 byed Johan Throne Holst the choclate fabrick in Rodeløkka
"Johan Throne Holst is one of the most significant industry leaders of all time. This is the man who made Freia to the leading chocolate factory and who was a pioneer in corporate welfare"
