Since the production of the iconic chocolate is partially moving from Switzerland to Slovakia, they have no other choice but to change their packaging.

Mondelez, who own the chocolate have said the a generic mountain peak will replace the iconic Matterhorn on all Toblerone packaging.

“The packaging redesign introduces a modernised and streamlined mountain logo that aligns with the geometric and triangular aesthetic,” a spokesperson for the confectionery brand’s US owner, Mondelez, told the Aargauer Zeitung newspaper.
