Milka Choco Jaffa Dessert Orange Jelly 147g

The orange is not just one flavour in the Choco Jaffa range — it is the original. The word “JaffaÝ itself is a reference to the celebrated Jaffa orange, and this is the combination that started it all: the sharp brightness of orange jelly meeting the silky warmth of Milka’s Alpine milk chocolate, on a tender sponge base that has barely changed in a century.

About Milka Choco Jaffa Orange Jelly

The Choco Jaffa Orange is built in three layers: a light, airy sponge base; a domed filling of orange jelly made with 1.5% concentrated orange juice and orange pulp; and a coating of Milka Alpine milk chocolate (minimum 30% cocoa) that enrobes the whole cake. The orange jelly has more than five times the fruit content by weight of the raspberry variant, delivering a genuinely citrus-forward character — bright, slightly tart, and unmistakably orange rather than a generic “orange flavour.Ý

Made in Germany by Mondelez International, the same company that has owned and produced the Milka brand since its acquisition of Kraft Foods’ international business in 2012. The jelly colour comes from E160a (beta-carotene) — a plant-derived carotenoid rather than the insect-derived carmine (E120) used in the raspberry variant, making this the colour-friendly choice for shoppers with vegetarian or vegan dietary preferences.

How to Enjoy Them

At room temperature the orange jelly becomes more yielding and the citrus aroma opens up fully — the best way to eat them. They pair naturally with a strong espresso or black tea, where the slight bitterness of the drink complements the sweet-sharp orange and the creamy chocolate. They work beautifully on an after-dinner dessert plate alongside the raspberry variant — two takes on the same format, orange and berry, for guests to compare side by side.

Orange vs Raspberry — Choosing Between the Two

Both Choco Jaffa variants at Malincho share the same sponge base, the same Alpine milk chocolate coating, and the same 147g dessert format. The differences are in the jelly and the colour. The Orange (this product) has a higher fruit content (1.5% vs 0.3%), a citrus-bright character, and a beta-carotene colour that is plant-derived. The Raspberry (SKU: ST M 848328) is tarter and berry-forward, with a deeper colour from carmine (E120, insect-derived) — not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. For shoppers choosing on dietary grounds, the Orange is the clear choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Jaffa should I choose — orange or raspberry?
If you want the classic and original Jaffa flavour — the one the format was named after — choose the orange. It has more fruit content (1.5% vs 0.3%), a zesty citrus character, and a plant-derived beta-carotene colour. If you prefer a tarter, berry-forward flavour, the raspberry (SKU: ST M 848328) is the choice. Note that the raspberry variant contains E120 (carmine, insect-derived) and is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans; the orange variant’s colour is plant-derived.

Why is this product called “JaffaÝ?
“JaffaÝ is a reference to the Jaffa orange — a variety of sweet, thick-skinned orange originally cultivated near the port city of Jaffa (now part of Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel). The name became associated with a specific style of dessert cake — sponge base, orange jelly, chocolate top — that became enormously popular in Britain and then across Europe. Milka’s Choco Jaffa is their version of this classic format.

Is the orange variant suitable for vegetarians?
The jelly colour in the orange variant is E160a (beta-carotene), which is plant-derived and does not disqualify the product on colouring grounds. However, the product contains eggs and milk, so it is not suitable for vegans. Vegetarians should verify the full current ingredient and allergen declaration on the physical packaging before consuming, as formulations can change.

What allergens does this product contain?
This product contains wheat (gluten), eggs, milk, soy (lecithin), and hazelnuts (hazelnut paste in the chocolate coating). Always verify current allergen information on the physical product packaging before consuming.

Where is this product made?
Made in Germany by Mondelez International. Both Choco Jaffa variants at Malincho (orange and raspberry) are produced in Germany and imported from Europe.

How many pieces are in the 147g pack?
The 147g pack typically contains 12 individually wrapped Jaffa cakes. Verify the exact count from the current product packaging, as configurations may vary.
