Čokolešnik is a food primarily intended for children over the age of four months but is often consumed by adults as well.
It was first produced since 1980 by the Slovenian company Droga Kolinska, as part of a "Bebi" program of instant porridges with many flavors, including "rižko" (with rice), "medenko" (with honey), "karamelko" (with caramel), "vanilko" (with vanilla) and "čoko" (with chocolate), among others.
[1] The most popular flavors of these, Čokolešnik and Čoko, survived to this day and continue to be the two main brands of this product.
Bebi withdrew from Slovenia and other countries of Southeast Europe in 2007, but remained in the markets of the former Soviet Union.
[2][3] The Čokolešnik and Čoko brands were sold to the Croatian food company Podravka on January 1, 2009.
